Answer: Hypolimnion

Explanation:

The hypolimnion layer is found in the dense region of lake. It is bottom layer of water in a thermally stratified lake.

This region has lowest oxygen concentration,and it lies below the thermocline.

It is the deepest and coldest layer found in lake. It has very less oxygen and maximum amount of sediments is also found there.

There reaches no light so photosynthesis id not possible there. The temperature there is almost 4 °C throughout the year.

Which of the following describes the electron sharing between hydrogen and fluorine?
EastWind [94]
Hello
We know both the elements involved in bonding are non-metals and the primary type of bonds involved in non-metals are covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms share one or more electrons; thus we know that whatever the number of electrons shared, it has to be equal for both. We can eliminate choices A and B.
Next, we understand that it is easier for one atom to be shared among the two, rather than the 7. First, because Hydrogen needs only 1 electron to be stable and would require energy to compensate the remaining 6. Second, electrons are attracted towards the nucleus so it is inefficient to try and share 7 electrons when 1 provides the same amount of stability to Fluorine.
Therefore, the answer is C.

Two containers hold the same radioactive isotope. Container A contains 1000 atoms, and container B contains 500 atoms. which con
enyata [817]

Answer:

The rate of decay of atoms in container A is greater than the rate of decay of atoms in container B.

Explanation:

From the question,

Container A contains 1000 atoms

Container B contains 500 atoms

<u>The rate of decay of atoms in container A is greater than the rate of decay of atoms in container B.</u>

The reason for such is due to the difference in the concentration of the isotopes. Container A which contains higher number of atoms will have the more changes of the release of the neutron as the changes of the hitting and splitting increases as the density of the atoms increases.

<u>Thus, the atoms in the container A will therefore decay faster than the atoms in the container B. </u>

A chemist reacted 12.0 liters of F2 gas with NaCl in the laboratory to form Cl2 gas and NaF. Use the ideal gas law equation to d
Nataly_w [17]

Answer: 91.73g of NaCl

Explanation:

First, we solve for the number of moles of F2 using the ideal gas equation

V = 12L

P = 1.5 atm

T = 280K

R = 0.082atm.L/mol/K

n =?

PV = nRT

n = PV /RT

n = (1.5x12)/(0.082x280)

n = 0.784mol

Next, we convert this mole ( i.e 0.784mol) of F2 to mass

MM of F2 = 19x2 = 38g/mol

Mass conc of F2 = n x MM

= 0.784 x 38 = 29.792g

Equation for the reaction is given below

F2 + 2NaCl —> 2NaF + Cl2

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mass conc. of NaCl from the equation = 2 x 58.5 = 117g

Next, we find the mass of NaCl that reacted with 29.792g of F2.

From the equation,

38g of F2 redacted with 117g of NaCl.

Therefore, 29.792g of F2 will react with Xg of NaCl i.e

Xg of NaCl = (29.792 x 117)/38

= 91.73g

Therefore, 91.73g of NaCl reacted with f2

Describe how transpiration and respiration show interactions among Earth's system
stepladder [879]

Earth has 4 systems/ spheres which are known as Lithosphere(land), Biosphere(living things), Hydrosphere(water) and Atmosphere(air).

Transpiration is the process that interact with the Hydrosphere and Respiration is the process that interacts with the Atmosphere.

Transpiration is the process happening in plants which absorb and distribute water through their roots and release water in the form of vapors through their leaves. As this process involves Water, therefore this process interacts with the Hydrosphere.  

Respiration is the process in which plants convert carbon dioxide to oxygen as a part of photosynthesis which was then inhaled by the animals. As this process involves Air, therefore this process interacts with the Atmosphere.
