Explanation:

Heat energy lost by metal = Heat energy gained by water.

(0.00138kg) * c * (99.6-31.6) = (0.006050kg) * 4.148 * (31.6-22.1)

c = 2.541J/kg°C

A scientist is wondering why a certain region in the ocean doesn't have maximum phytoplankton growth, despite having plenty of n
Advocard [28]

Answer:

C The water had adequate nitrogen and phosphorus, so it is likely iron limited.

Explanation:

Phytoplankton are single- cell organisms that live in oceans.

They require nitrogen, phosphorus and trace amount of iron to survive.

From the scientist's results after testing the water for nitrogen and phosphorus,there are reasonable amount of these elements.

Therefore insufficient iron in the water is the reason why he could find plenty phytoplankton in the ocean.

3. What's the empirical formula of a molecule containing 18.7% lithium, 16.3% carbon, and 65.0% oxygen?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Empirical formula is  Li₂CO₃.

Explanation:

Percentage of oxygen= 65.0%

Percentage of lithium = 18.7%

Percentage of carbon= 16.3%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of C = 16.3/12 = 1.4

Number of gram atoms of Li = 18.7/6.94 = 2.7

Number of gram atoms of O = 65.0/ 16 = 4.1

Atomic ratio:

Li              :            C          :    O

2.7/1.4      :       1.4/1.4         :   4.1/1.4

     2          :            1           :     3  

Li : C : O = 2 : 1 : 3

Empirical formula is  Li₂CO₃.
