Some of the negative consequences of cobalt mining are pollution and child trafficking.

<h3>Effects of cobalt mining</h3>

Many young children are made to work in mines generally either due to continued struggle for survival or forced into it by child traffickers.

Apart from that, cobalt mining causes pollution in the environment. Inhalation of dust containing cobalt causes a host of health issues such as lung cancer and damage to human skin.

Other effects include soil degradation and pollution, water pollution due to mine run-offs, etc.

Why is the bond angle in a water molecule less than the bond angle of methane
Annette [7]
The bond angle in the Water Molecule is approx. 104.5 degrees. The methane molecule is approx. 109.5 degrees. The differences, is due to the force from the surrounding molecules and atoms. For example the Lone pairs of electrons.

At 100 degrees Celsius, the ion product for pure water is Kw= 51.3*10^-14. What is the pOH of water at this temperature? A) 7.00
Levart [38]

7.86 is the pOH of water at this temperature of 100 degrees celsius.

Option E is the right answer.

Explanation:

Data given:

Kw = 51.3 x 10^{-14}

pOH = ?

we know that pure water is neutral and will have pH pf 7.

The equation for relation between Kw and H+ and OH- ion is given by:

Kw = [H+] [OH-}

here the concentration of H+ ion and OH- ion is equal

so, [H+]= [OH-]

Putting the values in the equation of Kw

pKw = -log[Kw]

pKw = -log [51.3 x 10^{-14}]

pKw = 12.28

since H+ ion OH ion concentration is equal the pH of water is half i.e. 6.14

Now, pOH is calculated by using the equation:

14 = pOH + pH

14- 6.14 = pOH

pOH = 7.86
