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

Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.48 V

Explanation:

Zn(s) ------------> Zn^2+(aq) + 2e. Oxidation half equation (-0.76V)

Co^2+(aq) + 2e-----------> Co(s). Reduction half equation (-0.28)

Zn(s) + Co^2+(aq) -------------> Zn^2+(aq) + Co(s) overall redox equation

Zinc is the anode while cobalt is the cathode.

E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode

E°cell= -0.28-(-0.76)= 0.48 V
