Incineration and landfills are the most widely-used waste management methods. Incineration is the burning of garbage and is favo

red by small countries that lack adequate landfill space. This method can, however, have a major impact on the environment. What is a possible problem with incineration of waste materials as a method of disposal?

<span>Burning certain materials could release toxic gases into the atmosphere.
</span>Too much city waste contains plastics and there are many different kinds. Some plastics like PVC release carbon monoxide, dioxins and furans that are associated with cancer and respiratory disease.

i hope this helps :)

It can ruin the ocean's and kill many animal's. The reason I say this is because after the trash dump takes your trash, the next step is they do some shippment on a boat and they throw it over the ocean which kills many animal's of the trash. That is one problem!

2C6H5COOH + 15O2 → 14CO2 + 6H2O which of the following options gives the correct product:product ratio?
mash [69]
You did not include the options but I can tell you the product ratio.

The product ratio is the mole ratio of the products of the reaction.

From the balanced chemical equation you have all the mole ratios:

The given equation is: 2 C6H5COOH + 15O2 --> 14 CO2 + 6H2O

The mole ratios are: 2 C6H5COOH: 15 O2: 14 CO2 : 6 H2O

The products are CO2 and H2O

Their mole ratio = 14 CO2 : 6 H2O

That can be expressed as:

14 mol CO2        7 mol CO2
----------------- =  -----------------
  6 mol H2O        3 mol H2O

It is also the same that:

6 mol H2O : 14 mol CO2

  6 mol H2O           3 mol H2O
------------------ =  -------------------
14 mol CO2           7 mol CO2

So, compare your options to the ratios show above and pick the proper ratio.

A scientist performs an experiment in which they create an artificial cell with a selectively permeable membrane through which o
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Water moves into the cell

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the cell is high in glucose and placed in a glass filled with water. This cell has a semi permeable membrane that allows only water to pass through, as the concentration of water within the cell is low, the cell will attempt to strike a balance with the medium it is inserted into. For this reason, what is likely to happen is the passage of water from the most concentrated to the least concentrated medium, that is, the water will pass from the cup to the cell.

water moves into the cell through osmosis.during osmosis water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.the glucose introduced into the cell makes it more concentrated.

In this case the cell is hypertonic and water would enter into the cell through the semi permeable membrane.this membrane allows water to pass through but not glucose.this movement of water into the cell causes the cell to become turgid.

What mass of carbon dioxide (co2) can be produced from 86.17 grams of c6h14 and excess oxygen?
charle [14.2K]
2C6H14 + 13O2 ---> 6CO2 +14H2O

M(C6H14)=12.011*6 +1.008*14 ≈ 86.17 g/mol

86.17 g C6H14 is 1 mole.

                             2C6H14 + 13O2 ---> 6CO2 +14H2O
from reaction        2 mol                         6 mol
from the problem  1 mol                         3 mol

M(CO2)= 12.011 + 2*15.999= 44.009 g/mol
3 mol CO2*44.009 g/1 mol CO2 ≈ 132.0 g CO2
Answer : 132.0 g CO2

Danny sails a boat downstream. The wind pushes the boat along at 21 km/hr. The current runs downstream at 15 km/hr. What is the
deff fn [24]

Answer: D) 36.0 km/hr, downstream

Explanation:

For downstream motion of the boat, the actual velocity of the boat is the sum of velocity of the water current and the velocity of the boat due to pushed by wind.

Velocity of water current, v = 15 km/h

Velocity of the boat going downstream, u = 21 km/h

Actual velocity of the boat = v'

v' = v + u

⇒v' = 15 km/h + 21 km/h

⇒u = 21 km/h +15 km/h = 36.0 km/h downstream

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Hello!

Bases are defined by Arrhenius as substances which release OH⁻ ions when dissolved in water. NO₂⁻ complies with this definition by the chemical reaction that is shown below:

 NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O (l) HNO₂ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Have a nice day!
