I believe that adding soap will make the paperclip fall through the water to the base of the dish. Soap is a surfactant, which decreases the surface pressure of the water. The surface strain of water is what upheld the paperclip in the first place, so with the decrease in surface pressure the paper clip will fall.

Include: 
- Adding cleanser makes the paperclip fall through the water to the base of the dish. 
- Soap is a surfactant. 
- Surfactants lessen the surface pressure of a fluid. 
- The surface strain of water is the thing that upheld the paper cut.

The ksp of zinc carbonate (znco3 is 1.0 × 10–10. what is the solubility concentration of carbonate ions in a saturated solution
Trava [24]
Ksp - solubility product constant is equivalent to equilibrium constant, except this constant is used to determine the solubility of ions of a solid in a solution. 
ksp is the product of the soluble ions in the compound. Higher the ksp value, higher the degree of solubility.
ZnCO₃ (s) ---> Zn²⁺ (aq) +  CO₃²⁻ (aq)
                         n            n
ksp = [Zn²⁺][CO₃²⁻]
In the equation equal amounts of ions Zn²⁺ and CO₃²⁻ ions are soluble. 
amount of ions soluble = n
ksp is therefore equal to;
ksp = n x n
ksp = n²
ksp = 1 * 10⁻¹⁰ M
therefore 
1 * 10⁻¹⁰ M = n²
n = 1 x 10⁻⁵ M
therefore concentration of CO₃²⁻ = 1 x 10⁻⁵ M

If 25 g of NH3, and 96 g of H2S react according to the following reaction, what is the
jeyben [28]

25 g of NH₃ will produce 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

<u>Explanation:</u>

2 NH₃ + H₂S ----> (NH₄)₂S​

Molecular weight of NH₃ = 17 g/mol

Molecular weight of (NH₄)₂S​ = 68 g/mol

According to the balanced reaction:

2 X 17 g of NH₃ produces 68 g of (NH₄)₂S​

1 g of NH₃ will produce \frac{68}{34} g of (NH₄)₂S​

25g of NH₃ will produce \frac{65}{34} X 25 g of (NH₄)₂S​

                                     = 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

Therefore, 25 g of NH₃ will produce 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

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.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

2 water + sugar + lemon juice → 4 lemonade

Moles of water present in 946.36 g of water=\frac{946.36 g}{236.59 g/mol}=4 mol=

236.59g/mol

946.36g

=4mol

Moles of sugar present in 196.86 g of water=\frac{196.86 g}{225 g/mol}=0.8749 mol=

225g/mol

196.86g

=0.8749mol

Moles of lemon juice present in 193.37 g of water=\frac{193.37 g}{257.83 g/mol}=0.7499 mol=

257.83g/mol

193.37g

=0.7499mol

Moles of lemonade in 2050.25 g of water=\frac{2050.25 g}{719.42 g/mol}=2.8498 mol=

719.42g/mol

2050.25g

=2.8498mol

As we can see that number of moles of lemon juice are limited.

So, we will consider the reaction will complete in accordance with moles of lemon juice.

1 mole lemon juice reacts with 2 mol of water,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{2}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 1.4998 mol

1

2

×0.7499mol=1.4998mol of water

Mass of water used = 1.4998 mol × 236.59 g/mol=354.8376 g

Water remained unused = 946.36 g - 354.8376 g =591.5223 g

1 mole lemon juice reacts with mol of sugar,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 0.7499 mol

1

1

×0.7499mol=0.7499mol of water

Mass of sugar used = 0.7499 mol × 225 g/mol = 168.7275 g

Sugar remained unused = 196.86 g - 28.1325 g

1 mole of lemon juice gives 4 moles of lemonade.

Then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will give:

\frac{4}{1}\times 0.7499 mol=2.996 mol

1

4

×0.7499mol=2.996mol of lemonade

Mass of lemonade obtained = 2.996 mol × 719.42 g/mol = 2157.9722 g

Theoretical yield of lemonade = 2157.9722 g

Experimental yield of lemonade = 2050.25 g

Percentage yield of lemonade:

\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}}\times 100

theoretical yield

Experimental yield

×100

\frac{2050.25 g}{2157.9722 g}\times 100=95.00\%

2157.9722g

2050.25g

×100=95.00%

Consider the air over a city to be a box 100km on a side that reaches up to an altitude of 1.0 km. Clean air is blowing into the
Mariana [72]

Explanation:

It is known that equation for steady state concentration is as follows.

            C_{a} = \frac{QC}{Q + kV}

where,   Q = flow rate

              k = rate constant

              V = volume

              C = concentration of the entering air

Formula for volume of the box is as follows.

                 V = a^{2}h

                    = 100 \times 100 \times 1

                    = 10000 km^{3}

Now, expression to determine the discharge is as follows.

                  Q = Av

                      = 100 \times 1 \times \frac{4 m}{s} \times \frac{km}{1000 m}

                      = 0.4 km^{3}/s

And,    m (loading) = 10kg/s,

           k = 0.20/hr

as   1 km^3 = 10^{12} L (if u want kg/L as concentration)

Now, calculate the concentration present inside as follows.

     C_{in} = \frac{10kg/s}{0.4 km^3/s}

                 = 25 kg/km^3

Now, we will calculate the concentration present outwards as follows.

       C_{out} = {C_{in}}{(1 + k \times t)},

and,      t = \frac{V}{Q}

               = 25000 s or 6.94 hr

Hence,   C_{out} = \frac{25}{(1 + 0.20 \times 6.94)}

                         = 10.47 kg/km^3

Thus, we can conclude that the the steady-state concentration if the air is assumed to be completely mixed is C_{out} = 10.47 kg/km^3 and C_{in} = 25 kg/km^3 .
