All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons. As you move down the table, every row adds an orbital.

Oceans have a major effect on global climate because water in the oceans holds a large amount of heat. How does the heat absorpt
Goshia [24]

The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation. Ocean water is constantly evaporating, increasing the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air to form rain and storms that are then carried by trade winds, often vast distances. In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area.

A proposed ocean thermal-energy conversion (OTEC) system is a heat engine that would operate between warm water (25 degrees C) a
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

 \eta=0.067

Explanation:

Given that

Temperature of warm water ,T₁ = 25 °C

Temperature of cold water ,T₂ = 5 °C

The maximum possible efficiency of any heat is will be same as the efficiency of the Carnot heat engine.Therefore the maximum efficiency of OTEC system is given as follows

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}      

T should be Kelvin scale

Now by putting the values

\eta =1-\dfrac{5+273}{25+273}

\eta=0.067

Therefore the maximum efficiency will be 0.067 or 6.7%.
