which is a greater threat to a mountain ecosystem: a beetle that kills coniferous trees or a wolf thats hunts and eats deer?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The mountain ecosystems are characterized by coniferous tree species such as pinus, firs, and spruces and species such as deers, bears, and wolves.

A beetle that kills coniferous trees would be a greater threat to the ecosystem than a wolf that hunts and eat deer because the dominant trees in the ecosystem are conifers. Hence, a beetle that kills coniferous trees might end up killing the dominant tree species in the ecosystem and this will gravely affect other plant and animal species within the ecosystem.

Wolves and deers have their niche in the mountain ecosystem already and hence, their populations are naturally limited by limiting factors of the environment. Hence, a wolf that hunts and eats deers would be of a lesser threat to the mountain ecosystem.

Why water in considered as compound?​

Answers

Answer with Explanation:

Water is a compound because it consists of two types of atoms (Hydrogen and Oxygen) that are chemically bonded. An "element" only consists of one type of atom, therefore, water is not an element but a compound. Its chemical formula is: [tex]H_{2} O[/tex]. This means that water consists of 2 atoms of Hydrogen that are bonded to an atom of Oxygen. Take note that a compound is different compared to the elements that it is made of. For example, water is essentially liquid in its form but it is different from the atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen, which are gas in form.

Answer:

Water is a compound. It contains more than one element: hydrogen and oxygen atoms are joined together; as illustrated in the video clip Elements and Compounds, above. ... Water is not simply a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen; it contains hydrogen and oxygen atoms linked together in an ordered way.

For your 13th answer in #4, what is the other name for this particle?

Answers

Answer:

The First layer is the troposphere. The troposphere is what we live in. It creates weather for us. Second layer is the Stratosphere. You will find the ozone layer in it. The ozone layer helps protect us from ultraviolet radiation (UV) from the sun. In fact, the ozone layer absorbs most of the UV radiation the sun sends to us. Life as we know it wouldn't be possible without this layer of protection. Third layer is Mesosphere. The Mesosphere is very important for earth's protection. The mesosphere burns up most meteors and asteroids before they are able to reach the earth's surface. Fourth layer is Thermosphere. The Thermosphere absorbs the sun radiation making it very hot.

Explanation: I don't know if you include this one but the fifth layer is the Exosphere. Although the exosphere is the most distance layer of earth's atmosphere it is the layer that is the planet's first line of defense against the sun's rays. It is also the first layer to come into contact and protect the earth from meteors, asteroids, and cosmic rays.

Answer:

Explanation:

The really interesting characteristic of the atmosphere is that each layer has a different temperature range. That is truly incredible when you list them.

The first layer is the troposphere. It is the layer closest to the earth's surface. It is 12 km high and goes from 15oC to - 56oC

The next layer is the Stratosphere. It is 38 km above the  Troposphere and the temperature goes from -56 to -2.5

The third layer is Mesosphere. It is 40 km above the Stratosphere and the temperature goes from -2.5 to -86.5

The next layer is the Thermosphere.  It is 710 km above the Mesosphere. It goes from - 86.5 to 1200o C So this goes from - 100 roughly to + 1200. That is a massive distance. It speaks wonders of how balanced this planet really is.

The final layer is the Exosphere. It goes up to 3000 km. The temperature is consistently at 1200oC

What I don't understand is how you get the layers from a 13 answer of something. What is the first name of the particle? That would seem to have nothing to do with this answer. Please explain because this was a good deal of work that might be for nothing. Mind you the answer is very interesting.

In a molecule of calcium sulfide, calcium has two valence electron bonds, and a sulfur atom has six valence electrons. How many lone pairs of electrons are present in the Lewis structure of calcium sulfide?
A. one
B. two
C. three
D. four
E. none
Also, state why.

Answers

There are none

Further explanation

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired

calculate the molar mass of cacl2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 110.98 \ g/mol}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The molar mass is the mass of a substance in grams per mole.

To find it, add the mass of each element in the compound. These masses can be found on the Periodic Table.

The compound given is:

[tex]CaCl_2[/tex]

The compound has 1 Ca (calcium) and 2 Cl (chlorine).

 

Mass of Calcium

The molar mass of calcium is 40.08 g/mol There is only one atom of Calcium in CaCl₂, so the number above is what we will use.

Mass of Chlorine

The molar mass of chlorine is 35.45 g/mol There are two atoms of chlorine in CaCl₂, therefore we need to multiply the molar mass by 2. 35.45 * 2= 70.9 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaCl₂

Now, to find the molar mass, add the molar mass of 1 calcium and 2 chlorine. 40.08 g/mol + 70.9 g/mol =110.98 g/mol

The molar mass of CaCl₂ is 110.98 grams per mole.

There is a mixture of three gases. We know the total pressure is 2.50 atmosphere and the pressure of the oxygen and the nitrogen in the mixture are 0.52 atmosphere and 0.84 atmosphere. The jar containing the gases has a volume of 25.0 liters and is at a temperature of 32 degrees Celsius. What are the pressure and the number of moles of carbon dioxide in the container?

Answers

Answer:

1.14 atm and 1.139 mol

Explanation:

The total pressure of the container is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of the three gasses:

P = Poxygen + Pnitrogen + Pcarbon dioxide2.50 atm = 0.52 + 0.84 + Pcarbon dioxide

Now we solve for the pressure of carbon dioxide:

Pcarbon dioxide = 1.14 atm

To calculate the number of CO₂ moles we use PV=nRT:

P = 1.14 atmV = 25.0 Ln = ?R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹T = 32 °C ⇒ 32 + 273.16 = 305.16 K

1.14 atm * 25.0 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 305.16 K

n = 1.139 mol

How do the force factors compare to the products of the masses?

Answers

Answer:

The force factors are equal to the first numbers of the products of the masses in scientific notation.

Explanation:

Ex. 1.0 x 10^5 kg^2 then the force factor would be 1.

ex. 3.0 x 10^12 kg^2 then the force factor would be 3.

To solve this we must be knowing each and every concept related to  scientific notation and its calculations. Therefore, in scientific notation, the force factors seem to be equivalent to the first digits of the masses' products.

What is scientific notation?

Mathematics is a way of representing numbers using a decimal number ranging from one to 10, but not 10 multiplied by a factor of 10. The most common type of mathematical notation is All numbers in scientific notation are expressed in the generic form N 10m.

In scientific notation, the force factors seem to be equivalent to the first digits of the masses' products.

Example1 1.0 x 10⁵ kg² , force factor is 1.

Example2 3.0 x 10¹² kg² ,force factor is 3.

Therefore, in scientific notation, the force factors seem to be equivalent to the first digits of the masses' products.

A) Neither carbon nor oxygen has satisfied the octet rule

To begin with...

The bond between carbon and oxygen is suppose to have 3 bonds in between

Second:

The lone pairs are not drawn. Since carbon monoxide has 3 bonds in between it should have a lone pair (2 dots) left over on each atom.

Reminder: in order to satisfy the octet rule EACH atom must have 8 electrons. Carbon has 4 valence shell electrons and oxygen has 6. In order to satisfy this rule, there should be 3 bonds in between which makes a total of 6 for each atom plus the lone pairs that make up the 8.
