Answer:

Many emerging diseases arise when infectious agents in animals are passed to humans (referred to as zoonoses). As the human population expands in number and into new geographical regions, the possibility that humans will come into close contact with animal species that are potential hosts of an infectious agent increases.

When 0.250 moles of KCl are added to 200.0 g of water in a constant pressure calorimeter a temperature change is observed. Given

777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

Upon dissolution of KCl heat is generated and temperature of the solution raises.

Therefore, heat generated by dissolving 0.25 moles of KCl will be as follows.

$17.24 kJ/mol \times 0.25 mol$

= 4.31 kJ

or, = 4310 J (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Mass of solution will be the sum of mass of water and mass of KCl.

Mass of Solution = mass of water + (no. of moles of KCl × molar mass)

= 200 g + $(0.25 mol \times 54.5 g/mol)$

= 200 g + 13.625 g

= 213.625 g

Relation between heat, mass and change in temperature is as follows.

Q = $mC \Delta T$

where, C = specific heat of water = $4.184 J/g^{o}C$

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $mC \Delta T$

4310 J = $213.625 g \times 4.184 J/g^{o}C \times \Delta T$

$\Delta T = 4.82^{o}C$

Thus, we can conclude that rise in temperature will be $4.82^{o}C$ .

EXPERIMENT 4 : TYPES OF PLATE BOUNDARY

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes most earthquakes. Most seismic activity occurs at three types of plate boundaries—divergent, convergent, and transform. As the plates move past each other, they sometimes get caught and pressure builds up.
