A student was assigned to take water samples from a lake near his home he measured the Ph of one of the water samples to be 6.0. which of the following best describes this sample of water
Highly acidic
Slightly acidic
Highly basic
Slightly basic

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Slightly acidic

Explanation:

pH can be defined as a measure of the negative logarithmic concentration of hydrogen ion (H+) in an aqueous solution.

Basically, the pH scale is used to measure the level of acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution based on a scale of 0 to 14.

An acidic solution has a pH lower than 7 (0 - 6), a basic solution has a pH higher than 7 (7 - 14) and a neutral solution has a pH of exactly 7.

In this scenario, a student was assigned to take water samples from a lake near his home he measured the Ph of one of the water samples to be 6.0. Therefore, this sample of water can be said to be slightly acidic its pH is slightly below 7.

1. You are pushing a heavy shopping cart full of water bottles with a constant force. The shopping cart has
mass of 250 kg and it is accelerating down the aisle at 0.20 m/s? How much force are you exerting?

Answers

Answer:

F = 50 N

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of car = 250 Kg

Acceleration of car = 0.20 m/s²

Force required = ?

Solution:

Formula:

F = m×a

F = applied  force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now we will put the values in formula.

F =  250 Kg × 0.20 m/s²

F = 50 Kg.m/s²

Kg.m/s² = N

F = 50 N

Non-Ionizing and Ionizing Radiation

There are two kinds of radiation: non-ionizing radiation and ionizing radiation.

Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms. Examples of this kind of radiation are radio waves, visible light and microwaves.

Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization. Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes. Ionizing radiation comes from x-ray machines, cosmic particles from outer space and radioactive elements. Radioactive elements emit ionizing radiation as their atoms undergo radioactive decay.

The Law of Superposition allows us to determine:

a
which rock layers are the oldest
b
the relative age of layers of rocks and the fossils in them
c
the exact or absolute age of rock layers
d
a and b are correct

Answers

Answer:

d . a and b are correct

Explanation:

The law of superposition allows us to determine the age of rock layers and also that of the fossils within them.

The law of superposition states that "in an undeformed sequence of strata, the oldest rock layer is at the bottom and the youngest is on top".

Using this law, geochronologists can determine the relative ages of rock layers. The youngest layer will be found on top. The oldest at the bottom of the sequence. The arrangement of the layers and the fossils there in can also tell us about the ages of the fossils themselves.

What would happen if we couldn't carry respiration out?

Answers

Answer:

There would be no energy for cellular activities

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process whereby living organisms breakdown ingested food in their cells in order to obtain energy in form of ATP. In other words, respiration converts the stores energy in food molecules into usable energy by the cell. The general equation of the process is as follows:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

The process of cellular respiration is carried out by every living organism in order to obtain energy to perform their various metabolic activities. Hence, without RESPIRATION, there would be no energy (ATP) for use by the cell, which utterly means no cellular activities will take place.

2.911 grams of ethanol C2H5OH is burned and produces how many grams of water vapor?
Please help me or I'm dead.

Answers

Answer:

3.4g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ethanol  = 2.911g

Unknown:

Mass of water vapor = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, let us write the balanced reaction equation first;

             C₂H₅OH  + 3O₂  → 2CO₂  + 3H₂O

Now find the number of moles of ethanol;

  Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]

    Molar mass of ethanol = 2(12) + 5(1) + 16 + 1 = 46g/mol

  Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{2.911}{46}[/tex]   = 0.06mole

  So;

       1 mole of ethanol will produce 3 moles of water vapor

      0.06mole of ethanol will produce 0.06 x 3  = 0.19moles of water vapor

 Mass of water vapor  = number of moles x molar mass

   Molar mass of H₂O  = 2(1) + 16  = 18g/mol

  Mass of water vapor  = 0.19 x 18  = 3.4g

Where is there higher air pressure, above the land or above the water?

Answers

Answer:

The air above land also warms faster than air above the sea. Cooler higher pressure air above the ocean moves toward warmer lower pressue air above land.

Answer:

Use the sources to help you, but I would say above the water.

Explanation:

"However, water heats up much more slowly than land and so the air above the land will be warmer compared to the air over the ocean. The warm air over the land will rise throughout the day, causing low pressure at the surface. Over the water, high surface pressure will form because of the colder air."

AND

"The depth (distance from top to bottom) of the atmosphere is greatest at sea level and decreases at higher altitudes. With greater depth of the atmosphere, more air is pressing down from above. Therefore, air pressure is greatest at sea level and falls with increasing altitude."
