<span>1)    </span><span>What is air pressure? (Answ</span>er: Atmospheric pressure, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.)

<span>2)    </span><span>What is a barometer and what is it used to measure? <span>(Answer: A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather.)</span></span>

<span>3)    </span><span>How does air pressure change?  <span>(Answer: Millibar values used in meteorology range from about 100 to 1050. At sea level, standard air pressure in millibars is 1013.2. Weather maps showing the pressure at the surface are drawn using millibars. ... This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.)</span></span>

<span>4)    </span><span>Why is cooler, drier air related to High Pressure? <span>(Answer: This is due to density differences between the two air masses. Since stronger high-pressure systems contain cooler or drier air, the air mass is denser and flows towards areas that are warm or moist, which are in the vicinity of low pressure areas in advance of their associated cold fronts.)</span></span>

<span>5)    </span><span>Why is warm, moister air related to Low Pressure?  <span>(Answer: When air warms, its molecules scatter. The air becomes lighter and rises.)</span></span>

6.) The barometer would show a decrease in wind speed resulting in the dissipation of cloud cover because of the lack of wind, and also because the temperature is dropping there is less precipitation because there is no hot air rising to create clouds.

7.) If it is getting cloudy, it is because the air is rising. This is what causes the condensation of the moisture by adiabatic cooling of a lesser pressure aloft. If the air is rising, the pressure must fall. The barometer will show a lesser pressure. The temperature, on the other side, has very little to do with it.

What is the name of the hydrocarbon CH3(CH2)6CH3?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer is: n-octane.

Octane is the straight-chain alkane (an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon) with eight carbon atoms.

Carbons in octane have sp3 hybridization (carbon’s 2s and three 2p orbitals combine into four identical sp3 orbitals).

Orbitals in sp3 hybridization have a tetrahedral arrangement and form single (sigma) bonds.

Burning octane fuel is very fast chemical reaction, it happens in immediately.

Main products of the combustion of fossil fuels are carbon(IV) oxide and water.  

Chemical reaction: C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O; ΔH = -5500 kJ/mol.

What leads to the formation of an ionic bond with Hg2+?
statuscvo [17]

The attraction of an SO_4^{2-} ion leads to the formation of an ionic bond with Hg^{2+}

<h3>What is an ionic bond?</h3>

Ionic bond, also called an electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.

Since the question asking among all these options:

(a) The attraction of a noble gas

(b) The attraction of a NH^{4+} ion

(c) The attraction of a group 1 element

(d) The attraction of a SO_4^{2-} ion

An ionic bond can be formed after two or more atoms lose or gain electrons to form an ion. Ionic bonds occur between metals, losing electrons, and nonmetals, gaining electrons.

Hence, option D is correct.

Classify each titration curve as representing a strong acid titrated with a strong base, a strong base titrated with a strong ac
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Acid base titration curves shows the pH at equivalence point

Explanation:

Since the images were not shown, I will proceed to give a general description of the following acid-base titration curves:

In a strong acid-strong base titration, the acid and base will react to form a neutral solution. At the equivalence point of the reaction, hydronium (H+) and hydroxide (OH-) ions will react to form water, leading to a pH of 7.

The titration curve reflects the strengths of the corresponding acid and base. If one reagent is a weak acid or base and the other is a strong acid or base, the titration curve is irregular, and the pH shifts less with small additions of titrant near the equivalence point.

Polyprotic acids are able to donate more than one proton per acid molecule, in contrast to monoprotic acids that only donate one proton per molecule. In the titration curve of a polyptotic acid and a strong base, The curve starts at a higher pH than a titration curve of a strong base. There is always a steep climb in pH before the first midpoint. Gradually, the pH increases until it passes the midpoint; Right before the equivalence point there is a very sharp increase in pH.
