The elements X and Y combine in different ratios to form four different types of compounds: XY, XY2, XY3, and XY4. Consider that

there is enough of each compound to contain 2 g of X. In XY the mass of X is 2 g and the mass of Y is 4 g.
Arrange the following ratios in order of their increasing value. Rank from highest to lowest ratio. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

1. The ratio of the mass ratio of Y to X in XY3 to the mass ratio of Y to X in XY.
2. The ratio of the mass ratio of Y to X in XY2 to the mass ratio of Y to X in XY.
3. The ratio of the mass ratio of Y to X in XY4 to the mass ratio of Y to X in XY.

Soil is an essential component of the earth's crust. It enabled life to exist and
goblinko [34]

Answer:

<u>The consequences of soil erosion</u> go beyond the loss of fertile land. It has contributed to increased runoff and sedimentation in streams and rivers, clogging these waters and causing declines in fish and other animals.

We can protect the community from soil erosion by -:

  • Maintaining a good, perennial cover for plants.  
  • From mulching.  
  • Planting a crop for cover

Explanation:

<u>SOIL EROSION -:</u> The soil erosion mechanism is both natural and man-made. In nature, this refers to the removal of the top layer of soil caused by wind and water, while human activity may increase exposure to these elements.

<u>MAJOR EFFECTS OF SOIL EROSION -:</u>

  • <u>Pollution and Low Water Quality -:</u> Sedimentation is created by gradual soil erosion, a process by which rocks and minerals in the soil are separated from the soil and deposited elsewhere, often in streams and rivers. Soil contaminants, such as fertilizers and pest control agents, often settle in the streams and rivers to protect crops. Water contaminants contribute to low water quality, including drinking water quality, if the contaminants are not removed prior to ingestion. As sunlight can get through the sediment, sedimentation also leads to the excessive growth of algae. According to the World Wildlife Fund, high levels of algae drain too much oxygen from the water, resulting in the mortality of marine species and reduced fish stocks.
  • <u>Structural Issues and Mudslides -:</u> Soil erosion contributes to mudslides, impacting the stability of buildings and roadways and their structural integrity. Mudslides affect not only soil-supported structures, but also buildings and roads that are in the path of slides. Mudslides occur when, as a result of the intensity and energy of heavy rainfall, fine sand , clay, silt, organic matter and soil spill off the sides of hills and slopes. According to Envirothon, a program of the National Conservation Foundation and North America's largest high school environmental education competition, this runoff happens rapidly, because there is not enough time for the surface to reabsorb or catch the eroding soil.
  • <u>Flooding and Deforestation -:</u> Deforestation erodes soil — the removal of trees to create space for towns and agriculture. Trees help to maintain soil in place, so winds and rains drive the loose soil and rocks to streams and rivers when they are uprooted, resulting again in unnecessary sedimentation. The thick layers of sediment keep streams and rivers from flowing smoothly, ultimately contributing to flooding. Excess water, especially during rainy seasons and when the snow melts, gets trapped by the sediment and has nowhere to go except back on land.
  • <u>The Deterioration of Soil -:</u> Soil nutrient depletion is often the result of poorly performed cultivation and cultivation practices that contribute to soil erosion. For natural vegetation and agricultural purposes, excessive irrigation and obsolete tilling practices decrease the amount of nutrients in the soil and make it less fertile.

<u>PROTECTION OF COMMUNITY FROM SOIL EROSION -</u>

  • <u>Maintaining a good, perennial cover for plants  -:</u> Your perennial garden's care and upkeep need not be difficult or overwhelming. A blend of certain simple horticultural values with common sense and a good eye is a great part of good gardening.
  • <u>MULCHING -:</u> The amount of water that evaporates from your soil will be reduced by mulch, greatly reducing the need to water the plants. By breaking up clay and permitting better movement of water and air through the soil. Mulch supplements sandy soil with nutrients and enhances its ability to retain water.
  • <u>PLANTING A  CROP FOR COVER -: </u> Winter rye in vegetable gardens, for instance. This includes annual grasses, small grains , legumes and other forms of vegetation that have been planted to provide temporary vegetative cover. Cover crops are also often tilled as a 'green manure' crop under serving.

The model below shows an atom of an element. 10 light gray and 8 dark gray balls sit at the center with 2 concentric black rings
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The Atomic Number of the atom of an element whose model is given is "8" that is option no. 'C' in the question.

Explanation:

An Atom comprises of 3 basic structures that are Protons, Neutrons and Electrons. The central part is the Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons having positive charge and no charge respectively. The electrons are revolving around the nucleus in electronic shells having the negative charge.

<u><em>ATOMIC NUMBER: </em></u>

Atomic number is the number of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom and it determines the place of that particular atom in the <u>Periodic Table.</u>

In the model, given in the question, the nucleus contains 2 types of balls dark gray colored and light gray colored. The key at the bottom shows the dark gray colored ball as having a positive charge and thus it represents the atomic number for the given atom of element which is <u><em>EIGHT (8).</em></u>

So, the atomic number for the given atom is 8 which is element OXYGEN.

Two weak acids, A and B, have pKa values of 4 and 6, respectively. Which statement is true?A) Acid A dissociates to a greater ex
zalisa [80]

Answer:

A) Acid A dissociates to a greater extent in water than acid B

Explanation:

A) Acid A dissociates to a greater extent in water than acid B

We are given the pKa for both acids, and we know

pKa = - log Ka

Taking antilog to both sides of the equation we can solve for Ka

⇒ -pKa = log Ka

-antilog pKa = Ka

10 ^-pka = Ka

So ka for acid A = 10⁻⁴

and

ka for acid B = 10⁻⁶

True the equilibrium constant for acid A is greater, so it dissociates more.

B) For solutions of equal concentration, acid B will have a lower pH.

We know the stronger acid is A, and it dissociates more. Since pH is the negative log of H₃O⁺ concentration, it follows that at equal concentrations the acid A will have at equilibrium a greater [H₃O⁺] and hence a lower pH

C) B is the conjugate base of A

False:

If B were the conjugate base of A, its  Kb would have been given by:

Ka x Kb = Kw

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴/10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁸ for the conjugate base of acid B

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴/10⁻⁴ = 10⁻¹⁰ for the conjugate base of acid A

which are not equal.

D) Acid A is more likely to be a polyprotic acid than acid B.

False

Just having the pkas for both acids one cannot know if any of the acids is polyprotic. We will need the formula for the acids.

E) The equivalence point of acid A is higher than that of acid B

False

The equivalence point depends on the the concentration of the acids  and their volumes.

The equivalence point is reached in the titration when the number of equivalents of base equals the number of equivalents of acid:

# equivalents acid = # equivalents of base  @ end point

and

# equivalents acid = Molarity of acid x Volume of acid

How many moles of oxygen atoms are in 132.2 g of MgSO4?
zzz [600]

4.4moles of oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of MgSO₄ = 132.2g

Unknown:

Number of moles of oxygen atoms = ?

Solution:

The number of moles is the quantity of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.

 To solve for this;

 Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of MgSO₄ = 24 + 32 + 4(16) = 120g/mole

  Number of moles = \frac{132.2}{120} = 1.1 moles

In

     1 moles of MgSO₄ we have 4 moles of oxygen atoms

    1.1 moles of MgSO₄ contains 4 x 1.1 moles = 4.4moles of oxygen atoms
