Which statement best explains why the air pressure is greater at the poles than at the equator

Chemistry
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

At the equator, the altitude is lower, and also because of the direct heating of sun rays on the surface, the temperature is much higher than at the poles. This makes the air near the surface hot and lighter and hence it rises up which results in lower air pressure.

Question 20 (2 points)
sveta [45]

Answer:

becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

Explanation:

Precipitation refers to rainfall that reaches the earth.

Most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean.

When the rain falls on earth, some evaporates, some enters into the ground while some runs off into rivers and streams. Almost all of the rain water flows into the oceans or other bodies of water.

Hence, most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In H_2O , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl^- is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in H_2 is zero and in OH^- the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl_2 is 0.

From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.

Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.

Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.

So, the right choice is C.H
