Answer:

Option A. Dense water floats.

Explanation:

Ocean circulation act as conveyor belt which transport warm water from the tropics towards poles from where cold water sinks to the deep ocean. It is also known as the thermohaline circulation because it is driven by salinity and temperature.

However, change in climate causing these ocean's thermohaline current to slow down because influx of cold and melting fresh water from the polar region is disrupting these circulation as influx of fresh water making the water less saline and less dense and hence it become harder to sink to deep ocean.

600 s after initiation of a first order reaction 48.5% of the initial reactant concentration remains present. What is the rate c

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$k=1.20x10^{-3} s^{-1}$

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the rate law is:

$v=\frac{-d[A]}{[A]}=k[A]$

Integranting both sides of the equation we get:

$\int\limits^a_b {\frac{d[A]}{[A]}} \, dx =-k\int\limits^t_0 {} \, dt$

where "a" stands for [A] (molar concentration of a given reagent) and "b" is {A]0 (initial molar concentration of a given reagent), "t" is the time in seconds.

From that integral we get the integrated rate law:

$ln\frac{[A]}{[A]_{0} } =-kt$
