The correct answer is radiosonde.

A radiosonde refers to a battery-oriented telemetry apparatus taken into the atmosphere generally with the help of a weather balloon, which helps in the prediction of several atmospheric parameters and transfers them by radio to a ground receiver. The current radiosondes calculate or predict various elements like pressure, attitude, relative humidity, temperature, cosmic ray, wind, and other elements. Thus, it can be a helpful instrument for the prediction of a thunderstorm.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

7.5 g

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

Ammonium phosphate ((NH₄)₃PO₄) is an important ingredient in many fertilizers. It can be made by reacting phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) with ammonia (NH₃). What mass of ammonium phosphate is produced by the reaction of 4.9 g of phosphoric acid? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

H₃PO₄ + 3 NH₃ ⇒ (NH₄)₃PO₄

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4.9 g of phosphoric acid

The molar mass of phosphoric acid is 98.00 g/mol.

$4.9 g \times \frac{1mol}{98.00g} = 0.050mol$

Step 3: Calculate the moles of ammonium phosphate produced from 0.050 moles of phosphoric acid

The molar ratio of H₃PO₄ to (NH₄)₃PO₄ is 1:1. The moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄ produced are 1/1 × 0.050 mol = 0.050 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.050 moles of ammonium phosphate

The molar mass of ammonium phosphate is 149.09 g/mol.

$0.050mol \times \frac{149.09 g}{mol} = 7.5 g$

What is magma and what does it create? How?

Genrish500 [490]

Magma is a molten and semi-molten rock mixture found under the surface of the Earth. This mixture is usually made up of four parts: a hot liquid base, called the melt; minerals crystallized by the melt; solid rocks incorporated into the melt from the surrounding confines; and dissolved gases.

Which of the following statements is incorrect? A. Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units. B. Formula mass compares th

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The incorrect statement is the choice C. Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.

Explanation:

1) Choice A. Molecular mass is expressed in atomic mass units.

Correct. Atomic mass units (a.m.u) is the standard unit used to express the mass of the atoms and the molecules.

Since, one atom, molecule, or formula unit is a tiny amount of material, it has a ver, very low mass, and the unit mass of a molecule is referred to one mole (6.022 × 10²³ units).

2) Choice B. Formula mass compares the mass of one formula unit of a substance to the mass of one atom of carbon-12.

Correct. The masses of atoms and compounds are referred to a standard. Such standard is the carbon-12 atom. This is, the cabon-12 atom was selected as the standard and its exact mass is 12 a.m.u.

3) Choice C. Atomic mass has units of grams per atom.

Incorrect. Atomic mass is the mass of the atoms, but, since, the mass of one atom is so small, the atomic mass is referred to one mole. Hence, the atomic mass has units of grams per mole.

4) Choice D. Both molecular mass and formula mass use carbon-12 as a reference standard.

Correct. As stated when explaining the option B, the mass of atoms, molecules, and formula units are referred to carbon-12 standard.

5) Choice E. Sodium chloride, an ionic compound, is said to have a formula weight, but not a molecular weight.

Correct. The reason is that ionic compounds form large structures (crystals) and, since there is not such thing as one molecule of them, they are said to have formula weight (or mass) but not a molecular weight.

The name molecules is reserved for covalent compounds, where you can formally identify molecules. E.g. Water is a molecular compound, and each molecule has molecular formula H₂O, whose mass is the molecular mass.

swat32

Answer:

The correct answer is A)

Overtime, the finches on the island adapted as a result of competition for resources.

Explanation:

The finches beaks adapted to the food source which was favored by natural selection. The successful finches that had the most useful beak for their island survived and therefore reproduced.

Cheers!
