Why is environmental science more than just ecology or biology?

Answers

Answer 1

Generally speaking, environmental science is a broader field that incorporates many elements of earth and life sciences, whereas ecology is usually more focused on how organisms interact with each other and their surroundings, and often on a very specific population of living things.

What is the parent isotope when Cl-33 is formed during a beta decay?

Answers

Answer:

33/16 S

Explanation:

In beta decay, the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit while the mass of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus.

Hence, if we know that a beta decay has occurred, then the parent nucleus must have the same mass as its daughter nucleus but have an atomic number that is less than that of the daughter nucleus by only one unit, hence the answer above.

Part One: Calculate the molarity of Ba2+ in an aqueous solution that contains 1.7 g of Ba(OH)2 in 0.75 L of solution.
Answer in units of mol/L.

Part Two: What is the molarity of H3O+?
Answer in units of mol/L.

Answers

Explanation:

Ba(OH)2 ==>  Ba2+  +  2OH-

1.7 g = 0.008172796 moles Ba(OH)_2

1:1 for Ba2+ = 0.008172796 moles / .15L = 0.054M

2:1 for OH- = 0.016345593 moles / .15L = 0.109M

Kw = [H+] x [OH-] = 10^{-14}

10^{-14} / 0.109 = 9.2×10^{-14}  = [H+]

Water is dissolved into n-butanol (a polar liquid). Which is the second step at the molecular level as water dissolves into n-butanol?

Answers

Answer:

Formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between water molecules and molecules of n-butanol

Explanation:

Low molecular weight alcohols are miscible with water in all proportions. The reason for this is that, when a low molecular weight alcohol is dissolved in water, intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the low molecular weight alcohol and water molecules.

Low molecular weight alcohols such as n-butanol contain the polar -OH group which interacts with water via hydrogen bonding.

Answer:

n-Butanol molecules surround water molecules.

You have at your disposal 3 1-pound bags of various pure salts that dissolve readily in water. You can add one of the bags to a 55 gallon barrel of water. Which bag should you use to lower the freezing point by the greatest amount? (1 lb. = 0.454 kg)

Answers

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

However, it should be noted that addition of soluble salts generally lowers the freezing point of water hence after the addition, water will no longer freeze at 0°C but lower.

Soluble salts tend to form more ions in water, it is these ions that are responsible for interfering with the hydrogen bonds hence lowering the freezing. Thus, (since each bag are of the same weight) the bag that contains the salt that ionizes more in water will lower the freezing point by the greatest amount.

NOTE: Different weight of the salts could lead to more ions been formed in the water by some salts as against the other.

Imagine that Ana has a block made of pure gold. If she cuts this block into two equal pieces, pick the statement that best describes the resulting pieces.

Answers

Answer:

The density of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

Explanation:

Options

The mass of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

The weight of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

The density of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

The volume of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

The correct answer would be that the density of each piece is the same as that of the original block.

The density is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of the substance. This ratio is constant for all substances because the mass of any object varies proportionally with the volume of the object. The more the mass increases, the more the volume also increases, and vice-versa.

why coal is burnt in the absense of oxygen

Answers

Answer:

Carbon dioxide and heat are generated when coal is burnt in the presence of oxygen. - Coal is mainly made out of carbon contents. - So, the combustion of the coal is actually the combustion of carbon. - During this combustion process, the carbon is chemically bonded with the atmospheric oxygen and forms carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

Charcoal is mostly carbon. When it burns, the carbon combines with oxygen from the air to form carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. So, you have fewer oxygen molecules in the air, and instead carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide molecules.  

         The process of heating coal in the absence of air is called the destructive distillation of coal. Coal contains a number of elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur. When coal is heated in the absence of air, a number of products are obtained.

Find out the volume and mole in 56 g nitrogen at STP
Molecular weight of N, is 28 g​

Answers

Answer:

Moles = 2 molVolume = 44.8 dm³

Explanation:

From the question

mass of Nitrogen = 56 g

Molecular weight = 28 g/mol

To find the number of miles we use the formula

[tex]n = \frac{m}{M} [/tex]

where

n is the number of miles

m is the mass

M is the molecular weight

So we have

[tex]n = \frac{56}{28} [/tex]

We have the answer as

2 moles

To find the volume we use the formula

V = n × V(dm³)

where

V is the volume

n is the number of miles

V(dm³) is the volume of 1 mole of a gas at STP which is 22.4 dm³

So the volume is

V = 2 × 22.4

We have the answer as

44.8 dm³

Justin B. Believes that the temperature lowering during the fall months is what causes the color of the leaves to change. He set up an experiment wherein he placed some plants in 80 degrees rooms and some in 60 degree rooms. He observed the color of the leaves for a total of 1 month. At the end of the month Justin observed that 3/4 of the plants in the 60 degree temperature had begun to change colors and only 1/4 of the plants in the 80 degree temperature began to change colors.

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the remaining part of the question is:

What is the control group, independent variable and dependent variable?

Control group: Plants placed in 80 degree rooms

Independent variable: Change in temperature

Dependent variable: Change in color of leaves

Explanation:

The independent variable in a scientific experiment is the variable that the experimenter controls or manipulates in order to bring about a change in the dependent variable. In this experiment, the variable manipulated by Justin B is the TEMPERATURE CHANGE.

On the other hand, a variable is said to be dependent if it is the variable that responds to a change made to the independent variable or rather it is the outcome. In this experiment, Justin B is trying to see the outcome on the color change in leaves when exposed to a low temperature, hence, COLOR CHANGE IN LEAVES is the dependent variable.

Control group of an experiment is the group that receives no experimental treatment. It is the group the experimenter considers normal and hence is comparing with his experimental group. In this experiment, Justin B believes the leaves change color in a low temperature, hence, he placed some plants in a lower temperature (60 degree) in order to compare them with when the plants are placed in a higher temperature (80 degree). As far as this experiment is concerned, the plants placed in 80 degrees temperature are believed by Justin B not to undergo color change, hence, they are the CONTROL GROUP while the group he placed in 60 degrees temperature are what he is interested in, making them the EXPERIMENTAL GROUP

•A Brønsted-Lowry acid is any substance (molecule or ion) that can donate a hydrogen ion ( H+ ).

•A Brønsted-Lowry base is any species that can accept a hydrogen ion ( H+ ).

Explanation:

*example based on the picture*

Take the following reaction for example:

Hydrochloric acid ( HCl ) is the Brønsted-Lowry acid because it donates a hydrogen ion. Ammonia ( NH3 ) is the Brønsted-Lowry base because it accepts the hydrogen ion.

The Brønsted-Lowry theory also introduces the concept of conjugate acid-base pairs. A conjugate acid-base pair are two species that differ by a ( H+ ) ion.

Based on the reaction above, the ammonium ion( NH+4 ) is the conjugate acid of the base ammonia and the chloride ion ( Cl− ) is the conjugate base of hydrochloric acid.

The marathon covers 26 miles, 285 yards. Express this distance in kilometers.
(1 km= 0.6214 miles, 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters)
Show calculation steps

Answers

Answer:

Conversion gives 42,107 km in total

Explanation:

A marathon covers 26 miles and 285 yards.

If 1 kilometer is 0.6214 miles, then how many kilometers are 26 miles, then:

1 km = 0.6214 miles

X = 26 miles

X = 41,841 km

Now if 1 yard is 36 inches, how many inches is 285 yards?

1 yard = 36 inches

285 yards = X

X = 10260 inches

If an inch is equal to 2.54 cm, how many centimeters are 10260 inches?

1 inch = 2.54 cm

10260 cm = X

X = 26060.4 cm

And 26060.4 cm is 0.260604 km

Finally, the sum of the distance would be:

41.841 km + 0.260604 km = 42.107 km

what is the difference between deep water and shallow water waves???

Answers

Answer:

The change from deep to shallow water waves occurs when the depth of the water , d , becomes less than one half of the wavelength of the wave, λ....A wave with a longer wavelength travels at higher speed . In contrast , shallow - water waves show no dispersion . Their speed is independent of their wavelength .

Hope this helps :)

In an ocean ecosystem,the difference between deep water and shallow water waves is that  waves in water deep enough so that the bottom has no effect on them are termed deep-water waves, whereas waves most affected by the bottom are called shallow-water waves.

What is an ecosystem?

Ecosystem is defined as a system which consists of all living organisms and the physical components with which the living beings interact. The abiotic and biotic components are linked to each other through nutrient cycles and flow of energy.

Energy enters the system through the process of photosynthesis .Animals play an important role in transfer of energy as they feed on each other.As a result of this transfer of matter and energy takes place through the system .Living organisms also influence the quantity of biomass present.By decomposition of dead plants and animals by microbes nutrients are released back in to the soil.
