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.

How many moles of H2O2 are needed to react with 1.07 moles of N2H4?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

2.14 moles of H₂O₂ are required

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂O₂ required = ?

Number of moles of N₂H₄ available = 1.07 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂H₄  +   2H₂O₂       →   N₂ +  4H₂O

now we will compare the moles of H₂O₂ and N₂H₄

                          N₂H₄     :      H₂O₂  

                            1           :        2

                            1.07      :         2×1.07 = 2.14 mol

Helen [10]
The answer is D transition state. In the energy profile, the transition state is the highest point. For a reaction, the activation energy is the minimal energy needed to trigger a reaction. The reactants are the start of the reaction and the products are the end of the reaction.
