Wittaler [7]2 years ago
7 0

The ecosystem services provided by the each of the given examples are as follows:

  • A cornfield in Kansas provides provisioning services.
  • Bacteria that decompose waste along the Gulf Coast provides regulating services.
  • Ocean currents that keep Pacific Northwest air cool and moist provides regulating services.
  • Flower garden at a national landmark provides cultural services.
  • Lumber from an oak tree provides provisioning services.
  • Animals that eat seeds and then spread the seeds through their waste regulating services.

<h3>Ecosystem services</h3>

Ecosystem services are defined as the benefits derived by man from the surroundings ecosystems.

<h3>Categories of ecosystem services</h3>

The four categories of ecosystem services are:

  • regulating services,
  • provisioning services,
  • cultural services, and
  • supporting services

A cornfield in Kansas provides provisioning services.

Bacteria that decompose waste along the Gulf Coast provides regulating services.

Ocean currents that keep Pacific Northwest air cool and moist provides regulating services.

Flower garden at a national landmark provides cultural services.

Lumber from an oak tree provides provisioning services.

Animals that eat seeds and then spread the seeds through their waste regulating services.

How long does it take for a 12.62g sample of ammonia to heat from 209K to 367K if heated at a constant rate of 6.0kj/min? The me
Georgia [21]
First, consider the steps to heat the sample from 209 K to 367K.

1) Heating in liquid state from 209 K to 239.82 K

2) Vaporaizing at 239.82 K

3) Heating in gaseous state from 239.82 K to 367 K.


Second, calculate the amount of heat required for each step.

1) Liquid heating

Ammonia = NH3 => molar mass = 14.0 g/mol + 3*1g/mol = 17g/mol

=> number of moles = 12.62 g / 17 g/mol = 0.742 mol

Heat1 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT

Heat1 = 0.742 mol * 80.8 J/mol*K * (239.82K - 209K) = 1,847.77 J

2) Vaporization

Heat2 = # moles * H vap

Heat2 = 0.742 mol * 23.33 kJ/mol = 17.31 kJ = 17310 J

3) Vapor heating

Heat3 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT

Heat3 = 0.742 mol * 35.06 J / (mol*K) * (367K - 239.82K) = 3,308.53 J

Third, add up the heats for every steps:

Total heat = 1,847.77 J + 17,310 J + 3,308.53 J = 22,466.3 J

Fourth, divide the total heat by the heat rate:

Time = 22,466.3 J / (6000.0 J/min) = 3.7 min

Answer: 3.7 min

What would be the volume of 0.500 mole of an ideal gas at a temperature of 273.15 Kelvins and 1 atm?
uysha [10]

Answer:

V = 11.21 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of helium = ?

Number of moles = 0.500 mol

Temperature = 273.15 K

Pressure of gas = 1 atm

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K

V = nRT/P

V = 0.500 mol ×  0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 273.15 K / 1 atm

V = 11.21 L / 1

V = 11.21 L
