<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
<u>An increase in pressure favors the formation of ozone </u>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Ozone, O3, decomposes to molecular oxygen in the stratosphere according to the reaction
2O3(g) ⇆ 3O2 (g).
- There are more moles of product gas than moles of reactant gas. An increase in total pressure increases the partial pressure of each gas, shifting the equilibrium towards the reactants.
- Therefore; an increase in pressure favors backward reactions towards the formation of ozone.
Convection occurs because the oceanic waters heat up becoming less dense. This water moves above the cooler water, and give off its heat to the surrounding environment. As it cools, it begins to sink, and the process begins again.
Answer:
The electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts
Explanation:
Electric potential is given as;
V = E*r
where;
E is the electric field strength, = kq/r²
V = ( kq/r²)*r
V = kq/r
k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²
q is the charge of the particles = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C
r is the distance between the particles = 859 nm
At midpoint, the distance = r/2 = 859nm/2 = 429.5 nm
V = (8.99 X 10⁹ * 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹)/ (429.5 X 10⁻⁹)
V = 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts
Therefore, the electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts
