One beaker contains 100 mL of pure water and second beaker contains 100 mL of seawater. The two beakers are left side by side on

a lab bench for one week. At the end of the week, the liquid in both beakers has decreased, however, the level has decreased more in one of the beakers than in the other. Explain why one of them has decreased more by filling in the following sentence:

Answer: The beaker containing pure water has decreased more.

Explanation:

In both cases, the decrease of water level is due to evaporation. We know that evaporation is a surface phenomenon. In the case of salt water, the salt molecules somewhat hinders the evaporation process of the water molecules and hence the salt water evaporates at a slower rate than pure water.

Hence, pure water level falls more.

Answer:

The answer is:

The presence of the dissolved salt in the sea water means that there is a lower number of water molecules at the surface. This therefore means that the sea water will have lower rate of vaporization than the pure water which is why the water level in the sea water beaker is higher by the end of the weak.

Explanation:

Pure water is characterized by being only made up of water molecules. Only those molecules will exist on its surface. On the other hand, seawater is made up of different types of ions, other chemical compounds, etc. In the glass that contains sea water on its surface there will be different dissolved molecules, in addition to the water molecules. In this way, the number of water molecules will be less compared to pure water. Regarding the evaporation rate, in pure water it is higher than that of sea water. This is why the glass that only contains pure water will evaporate much faster than the glass that contains sea water.

During metamorphism, what is the major effect of chemically active fluids?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

Metamorphism is the process where the variation of the geological texture resulting from the different arrangement of the minerals or the variation of minerals in protoliths, i.e., pre- existing rocks take place such that there occurs no change in state of the protolith, i.e., it does not melt into magma.

The change takes place as a result of the presence of chemically active fluids, heat and pressure.

There is a reaction between the chemically active fluid and the rock through which it passes and promotes the movement of the dissolved ions of silicate and promotes the growth of the mineral grains.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

1.138\times 10^{-3}V

Explanation:

Apply Faraday's Newmann Lenz law to determine the induced emf in the loop:

\epsilon=\frac{d\phi}{dt}

where:

d\Phi-variation of the magnetic flux

dt-is the variation of time

#The magnetic flux through the coil is expressed as:

\Phi=NBA \ Cos \theta

Where:

N- number of circular loops

A-is the Area of each loop(A=\pi r^2=\pi \times 5^2=78.5398)

B-is the magnetic strength of the field.

\theta=15\textdegree- is the angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the normal to the area of the coil.

\epsilon=-\frac{d(78.5398\times 10^{-3}NB \ Cos \theta)}{dt}\\\\=-(78.5398\times 10^{-3}N\ Cos \theta)}{\frac{dB}{dt}

\frac{dB}{dt}-=0.0250T/s is given as rate at which the magnetic field increases.

#Substitute in the emf equation:

=-(78.5398\times 10^{-3} m^2 \times 6\ Cos 15 \textdegree)\times 0.0250T/s\\\\=1.138\times 10^{-3}V

Hence, the induced emf is 1.138\times 10^{-3}V
