the biomass of decomposers was reduced from 56 gm-2 to 3 gm-2 from rainy season 1 to rainy season 2. suggest the effect this will have on the recycling of nutrients.

56 gm-2 – 100 %3 gm-2 – x %x = 5.3 %100 % - 5.3 % = 94.7 %The rate of decomposition would decrease on 94.7 % from rainy season...

You can remove most of these contaminants using two simple purification techniques: filtration and evaporation.

Na2SO4 * xH2O, the hydrated salt is overheated and the anhydrous salt thermally decompose, one product being a gas; will the reported value of "x" be too high, too low on the unaffected? explain

Na2SO4*xH2O = (dehydratation) = Na2SO4 + xH2O.x = n(H2O)/n(Na2SO4*xH2O), where n(H2O) and n(Na2SO4*xH2O) the number of moles of the water and of the hydrated salt respectively.The sodium sulfate exists mostly...

Can salt be lost during evaporation because after evaporating H20 from NaCl i was left with 0.1g of salt but using the equation m=n×M there should of been 0.1255g of salt. How was the salt lost?

Sodium chloride is not decomposed when heated in water and you could not lose it that way. It is lost due to experimental error (maybe spillage of the solution)
