"Is air pollution related to lichen growth?"

What is a likely hypothesis for the question?

A. Air pollution must affect lichen growth.

B. No, air pollution does not affect lichen growth.

C. If air pollution is high, then lichen growth is high.

D. If air pollution is high, then lung disorder cases are high.​

Answers

Answer 1

Air pollution must affect lichen growth because lichens have no roots they get all their nutrients from the air. If the air has pollutants that can become toxic for lichens.

What are lichens?

A lichen can be described as a composite organism that arises from algae or cyanobacteria living among filaments of fungi species in a mutualistic relationship. Lichens have different properties that come in many colors, sizes, and forms.

A macro lichen can be defined as a lichen that is either bush-like or leafy.  Lichens do not have roots therefore they absorb water and nutrients as plants do  but like plants, they form their own nutrition by photosynthesis.

If lichens are exposed to air pollutants they are unable to avoid the accumulation of air pollutants. Because lichens possess no roots, their primary source of most nutrients is the air.

Lichen decline can be because of the accumulation of toxic substances as well as altered nutrient supplies that favor one symbiont over the other. Therefore, option (A) is correct.

What is the amount of aluminum chloride produced from 40 moles of chlorine and excess aluminum?

Answers

Answer: Molar mass of Al = 26.98 g/mol

mass of Al = 12 g

mol of Al = (mass)/(molar mass)

= 12/26.98

= 0.4448 mol

According to balanced equation

mol of AlCl3 formed = moles of Al

= 0.4448 mol

Answer: 0.445 mol

How many moles of water are produced from the reaction of oxygen with four moles of propane (C3H8)? C3H8 + 5O2 --> 3CO2 + 4H2O

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5O₂  →  3CO₂  +  4H₂O

We see, that the equation is ballanced.

As we have data from only one reactant, we assume the other is in excess.

Ratio is 1:4 (stoichiometry). We solve this, by a rule of three:

1 mol of propane can produce 4 moles of water

Then, 4 moles of propane, may produce

( 4 . 4 ) /1 = 16 moles of water can be made.

Remember, we always have to work with the limiting reactant.

When developing a product such as cookware specific heat well as health cost and ease of use our important factors to consider one of the materials tested which is the best suited for cookware and why explain based on safety/health cost specific heat and ease of use

Answers

Answer:

In short, the thermal conductivity of a material is how readily that material absorbs and transmits (releases) energy. When the fire or heating element of a range comes in contact to a pan, the energy from the heat source is transmitted to the pan. This increases the internal kinetic energy of the pan (commonly called "heating up"). The heated material then transmits the energy to nearby materials that are at a lower average molecular kinetic energy level (at a lower temperature than the material). The higher the thermal conductivity of the material, the faster it will heat up and also, the faster the heated area will spread to unheated areas of the same piece of material.

For example, if we placed a large sheet of stainless steel (fairly low thermal conductivity as cooking materials go) on a burner and turned on the burner, the area directly under the burner would get hot while the rest of the sheet slowly heats up. The burner imparts heat quickly only to the region of steel directly over it. The rest of the pan heats up from the conduction of the heat from that spot. When the outer edges of the sheet have reached a hot temperature, the spot directly over the burner would be extremely hot. The figure below shows an example of the temperature of the sheet of steel over a gas burner. The hottest parts are shown in white, hot is red and cool is blue.

Answers

Answer: C. [tex]2HgO\rightarrow 2Hg+O_2[/tex]

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The skeletal chemical equation will be:

[tex]HgO\rightarrow Hg+O_2[/tex]

The balanced chemical equation will be:

[tex]2HgO\rightarrow 2Hg+O_2[/tex]

The correctly balanced chemical equation for the reaction [tex]HgO - > Hg + O_{2}[/tex] is: C. [tex]2HgO - > 2Hg + O_{2}[/tex]

The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transferred from one location to another. As a result, the mass of the products is required to be the same as the mass of the reactants.

On both the  reactant and product sides of the reaction, the identical amount of atoms of each element is required. Therefore, the equations used in chemistry are balanced.

Chemistry question on enthalpy HELP!!!!

Answers

Answer: The enthalpy change for this reaction is, -803 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

[tex]CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)[/tex]

The expression for enthalpy change is,

[tex]\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)][/tex]

[tex]\Delta H=[(n_{CO_2}\times \Delta H_{CO_2})+(n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_{H_2O})]-[(n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_{O_2})+(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})][/tex]

where,

n = number of moles  

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

[tex]\Delta H=[(1\times -394)+(2\times -242]-[(2\times 0)+(1\times -75)][/tex]

[tex]\Delta H=-803kJ[/tex]

Therefore, the enthalpy change for combustion of methane is, -803 kJ

Answer:

Explanation:

From Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, we can write;

Given that;

Δp =Δmv

So;

Δmv.Δx ≥h/4π

Δmv =2/100(3.5×10^7 m/s * 1.66 * 10^-27)

Δmv =1.162 * 10^-21 Kgms-1

2. Consider the table of boiling points and structural isomers. Note that butane has two possible isomers but that decane has 75 possible isomers. Why does the number of possible isomers go up with an increasing number of carbon atoms?

Answers

Answer:

because the number of constitutional confirmation , and geometric isomers goes up with each carbon atom added there are many more possible configurations and connectivities possible with decane , a 10 carbon chain , than with butane, a 4 carbon chain

"The number of possible isomers go up with an increasing number of carbon atoms because as the number of carbon atoms increases the tendency to form branching with other carbon atom increases as well."

What is isomer?

Isomers are molecules or polyatomic ions that have the same molecular formulas that is, the identical number of atoms of each element but different atomic configurations in space. Isomerism refers to the existence or potential of isomers. Isomers don't have to have the same chemical or physical properties.
