Capillarity. Capillary action is what causes anything with a wick to work, think about when you stick the corner of a paper towel in water, the water soaks up the paper towel.

Identify one factor represented in the diagram that is used to classify the ten types of clouds
Ede4ka [16]
Low clouds
Stratus clouds are uniform grayish clouds that often cover the sky. Usually no precipitation falls from stratus clouds, but they may drizzle. When a thick fog “lifts,” the resulting clouds are low stratus. Nimbostratus clouds form a dark gray, “wet” looking cloudy layer associated with continuously falling rain or snow. They often produce light to moderate precipitation.

Middle clouds
Clouds with the prefix “alto” are middle-level clouds that have bases at 6,500 to 23,000 feet up. Altocumulus clouds are made of water droplets and appear as gray, puffy masses, sometimes rolled out in parallel waves or bands. These clouds on a warm, humid summer morning often mean thunderstorms by late afternoon. Altostratus clouds, gray or blue-gray, are made up of ice crystals and water droplets. They usually cover the sky. In thinner areas of them, the sun may be dimly visible as a round disk. Altostratus clouds often form ahead of storms that produce continuous precipitation.

High clouds
Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy clouds blown by high winds into long streamers. They are considered “high clouds,” forming at more than 20,000 feet. They usually move across the sky from west to east and generally mean fair to pleasant weather. Cirrostratus, thin, sheetlike clouds that often cover the sky, are so thin the sun and moon can be seen through them. Cirrocumulus clouds appear as small, rounded white puffs. Small ripples in the cirrocumulus sometimes resemble the scales of a fish, creating what is sometimes called a “mackerel sky.”

Vertical clouds
Cumulus clouds are puffy and can look like floating cotton. The base of each is often flat and may be only 330 feet above ground. The top has rounded towers. When the top resembles a cauliflower head, it is called “cumulus congestus.” These grow upward and if they continue to grow vertically can develop into a giant cumulonimbus, a thunderstorm cloud, with dark bases no more than 1,000 feet above ground and extending to more than 39,000 feet. Tremendous energy is released by condensation of water vapor in a cumulonimbus. Lightning, thunder and violent tornadoes are associated with them.

What is the correct answer ?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Element with 6s subshell

Explanation:

Reactivity of an element depends on the electronic configuration and position of element in the periodic table as reactivity increases as we go down the periodic table.

This is so because number of shell increases as move down the periodic table and the last electron is further away from the nucleus.

Element with 6s subshell is the largest among 3s and 4s subshell and has more number of shells so it will react more than 3s and 4s subshell.

Hence, the correct answer is "Element with 6s subshell".

Why is it necessary to use a new salt bridge for each<br> salt bridge for each electrochemical cell?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

salt bridge balances the charge when electrons move from one half cell to another half cell.

Explanation:

Explanation: A salt bridge balances the charge when electrons move from one half cell to another half cell. During this process the salt bridge uses its electrolyte solution which further helps in balancing charges in both the half cells. ... Therefore, for each electrochemical cell a new salt bridge is used.
