What causes water pollution?

Chemistry

elixir [45]2 years ago

Answer:

Good answer below, just adding on

Explanation:

Runoff of chemical products, animal waste, and especially human waste products such as different types of trash like scrap metals and plastic greatly increase water pollution. Additionally, oil leaks and spills can also lead to severe water pollution. As a general statement I'd say that human activities that are not monitored and are either directly dumped into water ways or are caught in run off cause water pollution.

Answer:

Every time it rains, fertilizers, pesticides, and animal waste from farms and livestock operations wash nutrients and pathogens—such bacteria and viruses—into our waterways.

Explanation:

but thank fully there is many people out there who are helping to clean the ocean and plus one more thing going to the beach and not cleaning after your self causes water pollution

What changes are observed on heat capacity ratio and output temperatures by increasing the specific heat capacity of both the fl
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

b- The heat capacity ratio increases but output temperature don’t change

Explanation:

The heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a body, by 1 degree. On the other hand, the specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a of unit mass of a material by 1 degree.

Heat capacity is an extensive property meaning its value depends on the amount of material. Specific heat capacity is found by dividing heat capacity by the mass of the sample, thus making it independent of the amount (intensive property). So if the specific heat capacity increases and the mass of the sample remains the same, the heat capacity must increase too. Because of that options c and d that say that heat capacity reamins same are INCORRECT.

On the other hand, in which has to be with options a and b both say that the heat capacity increases which is correct, but about the output temperatures what happens is that if we increase the specific heat capacity of both fluids that are involved in a process of heat exchange in the same value, the value of the output temperatures do not change so only option a is CORRECT.

If a gas occupies 1532.7 mL at standard temperature, what volume does it occupy at 49.4 ºC if the pressure remains constant?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

a. 1810mL

Explanation:

When conditions for a gas change under constant pressure (and the number of molecules doesn't change), it follows Charles' Law:

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}  where the temperatures must be measured in Kelvin

To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, add 273, or use the equation:  T_C+273=T_K

For this problem, one must also recall that standard temperature is 0°C (or 273K).

So, T_1 = 273[K], and T_2 = (49.4+273)[K]=322.4[K].

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

\dfrac{(1532.7[mL])}{(273[K])}=\dfrac{V_2}{(322.4[K])}

\dfrac{(1532.7[mL])}{(273[K\!\!\!\!\!{-}])}(322.4[K\!\!\!\!\!{-}] )=\dfrac{V_2}{(322.4[K]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{----})}(322.4[K]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{----})

1810.04571428[mL]=V_2

Adjusting for significant figures, this gives V_2=1810[mL]
