A flash flood is when to much water overflows a certain area. This is common with storms. When it rains; small bridges tend to floor. Garages, basements, and cellars can tend to flood as well from storms.

In the time of severe weather with heavy rain, there is usually floods that happen really quickly and suddenly, known to be a flash flood. When extra water fills the empty water bed with flowing river, then suddenly water rapidly rises in a short amount of time.

According to the phase diagram for water, how is the state of water determined?

ad-work [718]

I believe it’s 2? Because it’s saying read the temperature. Which is basically saying look at what state the water is in. Ex: hot or cold

Problem PageQuestion Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume

IgorC [24]

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant = $0.0821Latm/Kmol$

T =temperature = $273K=$

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}$

$n=\frac{1atm\times 3.16L}{0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.141moles$

$CH_4+4Cl_2\rightarrow 4HCl+CCl_4$

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = $\frac{1}{4}\times 0.141=0.0352$ moles of carbon tetrachloride

volume of carbon tetrachloride = $moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=0.0352mol\times 22.4L/mol=0.788L$

Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Why do different molecules require different masses to make 1 mol

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Different substances have different molecular masses. Thus, equal masses have different numbers of atoms, molecules, or moles. On the other hand, equal numbers of moles of different substances have different masses.

How does the average temperature change as the latitude decreases from the poles to the equator

igor_vitrenko [27]

As the earth is in the form of a sphere, the angle of incidence of the sun's rays at the earth's surface increases from the equator towards the poles and therefore the amount of heat received on a GIVEN AREA diminishes in the same direction. Temperature is therefore normally hottest near the equator and coolest near the poles.
