Chemistry
1 answer:
Simora [160]4 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

An extensive mountain range can cause a large desert area.

Mountains are usually geologic features that have heights that are greater than 600m.

  • Due to towering heights of mountains, they have serious effect on the weather and climatic pattern in an area.
  • Air masses that are warm are usually moisture laden.
  • As they try to cross the steep slopy side of one mountain, their pressure reduces and they drop the vapor in them causing rainfall.
  • The cold wind moves to the other side.
  • This side is called the leeward side.
  • Cold air is dry and lacks moisture.
  • This can lead to the formation of a desert.

Which of the following gases will diffuse most quickly at a given temperature?
Archy [21]

The gas that is having lowest density will diffuse faster than other gases. As lesser denser will diffuse more quickly than the one which is more denser. Density is directly proportional to mass of the substance that is more mass of the substance is , more denser it will be. So here the Gas A is having lesser molecular weight than the other gases so it will diffuse more quickly than the other gases.

Gas A; MW = 14.28 g/mol
