Which statements about fresh-water sources are true.? (Multiple Choice) (please help asap thanks!:)

Kay [80]

Answer:

The correct answers are:
"Only about 3 percent of Earth's water is fresh water."

"About 75% percent of the fresh water on Earth is frozen in ice sheets."

"The largest source of usable fresh water is groundwater."

Explanation:

3 percent of Earth's water is most certainly fresh water. Confirmed with a few fact checks.

The largest source of usable fresh water on Earth is groundwater. It's more difficult to access but it's there and much more usable than water say frozen in ice on the sea.

The most correct option left would be 75% of Earth's freshwater being in ice sheets even though it's about 70%.

Answer: The empirical formula is $C_3H_3O$ .

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2$ = 12.24 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 2.505 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 12.24 g of carbon dioxide, = $\frac{12}{44}\times 12.24=3.338g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 2.505 g of water, = $\frac{2}{18}\times 2.505=0.278g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (5.287) - (3.338+0.278) = 1.671 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = $\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{3.338g}{12g/mole}=0.278moles$

Moles of H= $\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.278g}{1g/mole}=0.278moles$

Moles of O= $\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{1.671g}{16g/mole}=0.104moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = $\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3$

For H = $\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3$

For O = $\frac{0.104}{0.104}=1$

The ratio of C : H : O = 3: 3: 1

Hence the empirical formula is $C_3H_3O$ .

Answer:

130

Explanation:

This is because that 3atm of N2O4 is used up for the 6atm of NO2, so 1 atm N2O4 is left. Resulting in In(1/4).
