Why do convection currents form

Chemistry
1 answer:
Scrat [10]3 years ago
3 0
Convection currents can happen in liquids and gases. For example when air is heated it becomes less dense and rises. This means that cooler more dense air comes down and is also heated rising up above more cooler air etc. This creates a convection current.
Here is a diagram of a hot water tank heater:

you need to make 1.5L of 1.0M HCl from a stock solution of 12.0M HCl. How many L of the stock solution do you need?
liraira [26]

Answer:

125 ml of HCl

Explanation:

The molarity of the stock solution to determine how many milliliters would contain 1.5 moles of HCl. Since a concentration of 12.0 mol/L means that you get 12.0 moles of hydrochloric acid per liter of solution,  

Concentration of required HCl (C1)  = 1.0M

Volume of required HCL (V1)  = 1500 ml

Concentration of stock HCl (C2)  = 12M

Volume of stock  HCL (V2)   = ?

C1V1 = C2V2

V2 = C1V1/C2 = 1*1500/12 = 125 ml

State whether the following statements are true or false (with justification). (a) 1 mol of N2 has more molecules than 1 mol of
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

A. False.

Every substance contains the same number of molecules i.e 6.02x10^23 molecules

B. False.

Mass conc. = number mole x molar Mass

Mass conc. of 1mole of N2 = 1 x 28 = 28g

Mass conc. of 1mol of Ar = 1 x 40 = 40g

The mass of 1mole of Ar is greater than the mass of 1mole of N2

C. False.

Molar Mass of N2 = 2x14 = 28g/mol

Molar Mass of Ar = 40g/mol

The molar mass of Ar is greater than that of N2.

Why is it important to separate material from mixture?
Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mixtures are impure substances with the following properties:

  • Their composition is indefinite i.e they consisit of two or more elements or compounds in any proportion by mass.
  • Their constituents retains their identity i.e physical properties are retained.
  • They can easily be seperated by physical methods into their constituents.

It is important to seperate materials from mixtures because mixtures do not undergo chemical changes when they combine. This implies that they can easily be seperated using simple seperation techniques with the constituents still retaining their properties.
