1. The sun’s thermal energy is exhibited from its surface traveling to the ocean floor in the day

2. As the heat energy is absorbed by the water, the currents move and rise as the ocean waters from the equator heads to the north phase of the planet.

3. And then the waters from the polar areas heads to the south, while ascending and gushing it becomes heated by the sun.

The sun’s gravity also affects this body of water. Since it has a much more stronger gravitation pull than of earth though its far away hence, high tide and low tide tendencies.

The heat moves in predictable ways, flowing from warmer objects to cooler ones, until both reach the same temperature. When air is in contact with the ocean at a different temperature than the sea surface, heat transfer by a conductor. The ocean absorbs and stores energy from the sun and when precipitation falls , it release heat energy in the atmosphere(air)

The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the

Answer:

The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the relative number of moles of each reactant and product that interven in the chemical reaction.

Explanation:

The coefficients are the numbers that you put in front of each chemical formula that represents the reactants and products in the chemical equation. They indicate the mole ratio in which the elements or compounds react to form the products, as per the chemical equation.

See an example:

Word equation: hydrogen and oxygen produce water

Chemical (skeleton) equation: H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → H₂O (g)

This equation is not balanced: the number of atoms of oxygenin the reactant side is 2 while the number of atoms of oxygen isn the product side is 1. In order to balance the equation you need to add some coefficients.

When no coefficients are shown it is understood that the coefficient is 1.

Balanced chemical equation: 2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O (g)

The coefficients 2 in front of H₂ and 1 (understood) in front of O₂, in the reactant side, and 2 in front of H₂O, in the product side, balance the equation.

Those coefficients mean that the 2 molecules (or mole of molecules) of H₂ react with 1 molecule (or mole of molecules) of O₂ to form 2 molecules (or moles) of H₂O (product side).

That is the mole ratio: 2 H₂ : 1 O₂ : 2 H₂O.

Notice that, in spite of the aboslute numbers may change, the mole ratio is unique for any chemical reaction. For example 4 : 2 : 4 is the same ratio that 2 : 1 : 2, or 8 : 4 : 8, but the most common practice is to use the most simple form of the ratio, i.e. 2: 1: 2.
