Write a hypothesis using IF-THEN - BECAUSE of statement.
Ahmed is curious about the death of the fishes in the ocean. He knows from his environmental chemistry class that pollutants like heavy metals can cause the rapid death of marine organisms. So, Ahmed did an experiment and obtained water samples. He tested that water contains a high amount of lead and chromium.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct hypothesis would be - "if a water body contains a high amount of heavy metals such as chromium and lead then the death of the fishes will increase because lead and chromium affect the aquatic environment and gills of fishes."

Explanation:

Heavy metal like chromium in a high concentration can affect the gills of the fishes, it is seen in fishes that swim at the point of disposal of metals at thewater surface harm their gills. In high concentration, it becomes toxic for the fishes.

Lead also causes a negative impact on the aquatic ecosystem if accumulated in a high amount in the aquatic environment that leads to the death of the fishes.

A metal object with mass of 29.0 g is heated to 97.0 °C and then transferred to an insulated container containing 95.8 g of water at 20.5 °C. The water temperature rises and the temperature of the metal object falls until they both reach the same final temperature of 23.7 °C. What is the specific heat of this metal object? Assume that all the heat lost by the metal object is absorbed by the water.

Answers

Answer:

0.603J/g°C is the specific heat of the metal object

Explanation:

To solve this question we must know the heat given by the metal is equal to the heat absorbed by the water. The change in heat follows the equation:

Q = m*S*ΔT

Where Q is heat in Joules, m is the mass of the substance, S its specific heat and ΔT change in temperature

The equation to solve the problem is:

m(Object)*S(Object)*ΔT(Object) = m(Water)*S(Water)*ΔT(Water)

Where:

m(Object) = 29.0g

S(Object) = ??

ΔT(Object) = (97.0°C - 23.7°C = 73.3°C)

m(Water) = 95.8g

S(Water) = 4.184J/g°C

ΔT(Water) = (23.7°C - 20.5°C = 3.2°C)

29.0g*S(Object)*73.3°C = 95.8g*4.184J/g°C*3.2°C

S (Object) * 2125.7g°C = 1282.6J

S(Object) = 0.603J/g°C is the specific heat of the metal object

Explanation: ‍♀️

How many liters are 1.20 g of oxygen?

Answers

Answer:

The required volume is 0.84 L

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of O2 gas = 1.20 g

We know,

At STP, molar volume of all gases is 22.4 L

and Molar mass of O2 gas is 32 g

Now,

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

                              = 1.20/32

                              = 0.0375

Again,

At STP,

Number of moles = Volume/Molar volume

or, Volume = Number of moles X Molar Volume

or Volume = 0.0375 X 22.4

∴ Volume = 0.84 L

So, the required volume is 0.84 L

How can the coefficients in a balanced chemical reaction be used to convert from moles of a reactant to moles of a product?

Answers

The coefficients in a balanced equation can be used as molar ratios, which can act as conversion factors to relate the reactants to the products. These conversion factors state the ratio of reactants that react but do not tell exactly how much of each substance is actually involved in the reaction.

If 250. ML of water are poured into the measuring cup, the volume reading is 8.45 oz . This indicates that 250. ML and 8.45 oz are equivalent. How many milliliters are in a fluid ounce based on this data?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1oz=29.589ml[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial Volume [tex]v_1=250ml[/tex]

Final Volume [tex]v_2=8.45oz[/tex]

Generally the equation for one ounce is mathematically given by

 [tex]1oz=\frac{v_1}{v_2}[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]1oz=\frac{250}{8.45}[/tex]

 [tex]1oz=29.589ml[/tex]

Which pair of formulas represents the empirical formula and the molecular formula of a compound?

Answers

Answer:

CH2O and C6H12O6

Explanation:

To find an empirical formula, take a molecular formula and divide the subscript of each element by the greatest common factor of all the subscripts. In this case, the only pair that works is CH2O,C6H12O6, which can be verified by dividing the coefficients of the molecular formula by 6.

08.04 MC) An unknown solution has a pH of 7.2. Which of these chemicals is likely to cause the greatest decrease in the pH of the solution when added to the solution? (5 points) a HF b KOH c NH3 d HNO3

Answers

Answer:

HNO3

Explanation:

i have the test

The correct answer that will decrease the PH is ( HNO3)

Since the unknown solution is containing a pH of 7.2, it means it is more basic not acidic, then to make it have  decrease in PH, then acidic substance needs to be added to it so as to reduce the PH from 7.2

KOH : potassium hydroxide is a base, if it is added to the substance, it will increase in PH value

NH3 : Ammonia is a base, if it is added to the substance, it will increase in PH value

HNO3 : Trioxonitrate (v) acid is an acid , adding it to the substance will make the PH to be acidic hence decrease in PH

When a substance  is neither acidic nor basic it can be regarded as   neutral.

The pH scale gives the measurements of  how acidic or basic a particular substance is.

The pH scale can be given in the  ranges starting from 0 to 14.

A pH of 7 is  considered neutral.

Therefore, decrease in PH can be achieved by adding acidic substance.

If I have 1.9 moles of gas held at a pressure of 5 atm and in a container with a volume of 100 liters, what is the temperature of the gas? 3205K

Answers

Answer:

T = 3206.89 K

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of moles, n = 1.9 moles

Pressure, P = 5 atm

Volume, V = 100 L

We need to find the temperature of the gas. Let the temperature is T. We know that,

PV = nRT

Where

R is gas constant, R = 0.08206 L-atm/mol-K

Put all the values,

[tex]T=\dfrac{PV}{nR}\\\\T=\dfrac{5\times 100}{1.9\times 0.08206 }\\\\T=3206.89\ K[/tex]

So, the temperature of the gas is 3206.89 K.

A geological process where materials of Earth are transported from one place to another by natural forces like wind or water is called erosion.

When materials of Earth are deposited over a certain landmark due to transportation by natural forces then this process is called deposition.

The four major causes of erosion and deposition are as follows.

Gravity - Force that is responsible for attracting an object towards the center of Earth.

Running water - Water present in the rivers, oceans or lakes is moving from one place to another. Also, along with it carries pebbles or other materials.

Wind Waves - This is basically air and it keeps on moving from one place to another all the time. Wind waves tend to carry dust particles or other materials along with it.

Glaciers - When a mass of ice that is formed by accumulation and compaction of snow over mountains or around the poles tends to move slowly is called glaciers.

The concentration of carbon-14 in a piece of wood from an ancient burial mound indicates that two half-lives of this radioisotope have passed. If the half-life (t 1/2) for carbon-14 is 5730 years, approximately how many years ago did this sample of wood die?

Answers

If the half-life for carbon-14 is 5730 years, then it will take 11,460 years to complete die of this sample.

What is half life period?

Half life period is a time of decay in which concentration of reactant is left half of its initial concentration, means half of the reactant will convert into product.

Total time of decay will be calculated as:

T = (t)ⁿ, where

t = half life time = 5730 years

n = number of half lives = 2 (given)

On putting values, we get

T = (5730)² = 11,460 years

Hence required time for decay is 11,460 years.
