Read the passage. Oceans and seas can act as a buffer heat reservoir to regulate climates. They can absorb great quantities of h

eat in the summer, with very little temperature change. In the winter, oceans and seas release the heat. This is the main reason why coastal climates are milder compared to terrestrial climates. Which choice correctly explains this phenomena? A) the high freezing point of water caused by the strength of O–H bonds B) the high boiling point or water caused by hydrogen bonding C) the high heat of vaporization of water caused by the strength of O–H bonds D) the high specific heat of water caused by hydrogen bonding

Answer:

D) the high specific heat of water caused by hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

  • The water has a higher specific heat and is due to the bonding of H2 molecules by the water. When the bonding is broken the heat is released and water molecules can move freely.  
  • This leads to a decline in the temperatures and thus the heat is released in winters and coastal climates are considered to be milder than terrestrial climates. <u>As the energy is released on condensation</u>.

How many moles of H2O form when 4.5 moles O2 reacts?
mart [117]

Explanation:

Start with a balanced equation.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Assuming that H2 is in excess, multiply the given moles H2O by the mole ratio between O2 and H2O in the balanced equation so that moles H2O cancel.

5 mol H2O × (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O) = 2.5 mol O2

Answer: 2.5 mol O2 are needed to make 5 mol H2O, assuming H2 is in excess.

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)About 5 percent

Explanation:

The approximate total size of the human nuclear genome is 3,200,000,000 base pairs. 1 to 1, 4% encode proteins, 24% are non-coding regions and the rest correspond to intergenic regions.

What does promoters in chemical reaction improve ​
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Promoter, in chemistry, substance added to a solid catalyst to improve its performance in a chemical reaction. By itself the promoter has little or no catalytic effect. Some promoters interact with active components of catalysts and thereby alter their chemical effect on the catalyzed substance.
