changes in density

Explanation:

The global thermohaline (conveyor belt) circulation is caused by changes in global ocean density.

The ocean water density is determined by the temperature and salt content of the ocean (thermo - heat and haline - salt).

  • Surface current drives warm and less water away for the equator towards the poles.
  • At the poles they become cold  and very dense sinking to the bottom and moving towards the equator back.
  • It is also called the ocean conveyor belt

Which half reaction can occur at the anode in a voltaic cell
luda_lava [24]

Oxidation is the half reaction that can occur at the anode in a voltaic cell.

Explanation:

In electrodes which is metal strip in voltaic cell the reactions occurs. The two electrodes placed one in each half-cell. The reduction reaction occurs at cathode and oxidation occurs at anode.

A half reaction is either the oxidation or reduction reaction component of a redox reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the change in oxidation states of individual substances involved in the redox reaction. Half-reactions are often used as a method of balancing redox reactions.

In an oxidation half reaction, an atom loses electron(s). When an element is oxidized it loses a specific number of electrons.

The reaction of Fe3O4(s) with hydrogen(g) to form iron(s) and water(g) proceeds as follows: Fe3O4(s) + 4 H2(g) 3 Fe(s) + 4 H2O(g
Reptile [31]

Answer:  151 kJ

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}  

\text{Moles of} Fe_3O_4=\frac{61.8g}{231.5g/mol}=0.267moles

Fe_3O_4(s)+4H_2(g)\rightarrow 3Fe(s)+4H_2O(g)

It is given that:

0.267 moles of Fe_3O_4 absorb energy = 40.3 kJ

Thus 1 mole of Fe_3O_4 absorb energy =\frac{40.3}{0.267}\times 1=151kJ  

Thus the value of \Delta H for the chemical equation given is 151 kJ
