In the past mining companies were not made responsible for the clean-up of any of the mine sites. As a result, abandoned mines had a severe impact on the
environment in Ontario. Which of these is not a result of these mining practices?
a)
Chemical reactions producing sulphuric acid decrease soil and water ph in the
area,
b) Acid leaching dissolves metals found in the soil thus allowing them to enter
the water system.
c)
Heavy metals which are left tailing ponds can dissolve and enter the water
system,
d) Old and inefficient mining smokestacks contaminate the soils around
abandoned mine sites.

The characteristic of two different types of reactions are shown below. reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of and element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? a: their identity changes in both reaction a and b. b: their identity changes in reaction a but not b. c: their identity changes in reaction b but not a. d: their identity remains the same.

What are the major types of a chemical compound

Steam reforming of methane ( ch4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 1.5 l flask with 3.5 atm of methane gas and 1.3 atm of water vapor at 43.0°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of carbon monoxide gas to be 1 .0 atm. calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
