What does elevation effect on climate

Chemistry

The higher in altitude the colder the temperature. Temp. drop 4°F every 1000 feet. That means that 75° at the bottom and 10000 feet up it will be 35°. This colder temp does affect plant growth but it also affects the soil which in turn affects plant growth. Mountain vegetation (depending on the elevation) is comparable to the vegetation in areas of high latitude. Areas found up in the northern regions are affected by the colder temp as are the soils - same happens in mountainous areas. You tend to see more evergreens and soils are more acidic and less rich (poor nutrients). You will also get your permafrosts. Eventually a treeline occurs - mountain tops become treeless as does the north arctic areas. You find mosses growing in and around the rocks with some shrubs whereever there is enough soil for the roots to take. "An increase in altitude, such as climbing a mountain is similar to heading north (in the northern hemisphere) plant and animal species will be similar at a mountain top to those which are further north.

Commercial cold packs often contain solid NH4NO3 and a pouch of water. The temperature of the pack drops as the NH4NO3 dissolves
Yanka [14]

Answer: b. \Delta H_{soln} is positive and \Delta S_{soln} is positive.

Explanation:-

As the temperature of the pack drops, the energy has been absorbed from the pack for dissolution of NH_4NO_3 in water. Thus as the energy has been absorbed in the reaction, the reaction is endothermic and the change in enthalpy i.e. \Delta H_{soln} is positive.

The entropy is the measure of degree of randomness. The entropy increases when the randomness increases and the entropy decreases when the randomness decreases. When a substance dissolves in water, it dissociate into ions and hence the randomness increases thus the change in entropy i.e. \Delta S_{soln}  is positive.

NH_4NO_3\rightarrow NH_4^++NO_3^-

An isotonic salt solution is 0.90% (w/w) nacl in water. how many grams of nacl are contained in 1.00 kg of such a solution?

An isotonic salt solution is 0.90% (w/w) nacl in water many grams of nacl are contained in 1.00 kg of such a solution Reconstruction debate that had federalism debate that had been an issue since the 1790s.

Reconstruction failed by most other measures: Radical Republican legislation ultimately failed to isotonic former slaves from white persecution and failed to engender fundamental changes to the social fabric of the South. When President Rutherford B. federalism debate that had been an issue since the 1790s almost mediately . Hayes removed federal troops from isotonic South in 1877, former Confederate officials and slave returned to With the support of a conservative Supreme Court, these newly empowered white southern politicians passed black codes, voter qualifications, and other anti-progressive legislation to reverse the rights that blacks had gained during Radical Reconstruction. The U.S. Supreme Court bolstered this federalism anti-progressive movement federalism  with decisions in the Slaughterhouse Cases, the Civil Rights Cases, and United States v.
