Answer/Explanation:

Heat from the sun hits the ground and is absorbed. The higher you go, it gets more colder due to the fact that the air doesn't hold onto the radiation as it goes straight through the ground, which is why the top of mountains are very cold, and people are able to die in minutes.

As you go higher, there are less air molecules and matter therefore meaning there is a lower pressure pushing down on you. Plus, when it is lower that means the particles will do some work meaning it will lose energy and when energy decreases so does the temperature and we define temperature as the average energy of the particles, in simpler words: When the pressure gets lower, the temperature also will get lower, which is why the higher you are the air temperature will get lower, and the lower you are the air temperature will get higher.

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

moles of NH₃ = 11.9g/17.03 g/mol = 0.699 mole

moles of CN₂OH₄ = 1/2(0.699) mole =0.349 mole

Theoretical yield of CN₂OH₄ = (0.349 mole)(60 g/mole) = 20.963 grams

%Yield = Actual Yield/Theoretical Yield x 100%

= 18.5g/20.963g x 100% = 88.25%
