Answer:
The rusting of iron is spontaneous at low temperatures.
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction is:
4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ----> 2Fe2O3(s) [rust]
The rusting of iron is a chemical reaction in which iron reacts with oxygen in presence of moisture and forms iron oxide.
This reaction takes place in a faster rate when there is low temperatures in the atmosphere.
When temperature is low, the moisture in the atmosphere is more and hence, rate of rusting is more.
However, as a result of the Sun's large angular size, solar<span> illumination is only partially blocked in the outer portion of the Earth's </span>shadow<span>, which is given the name penumbra. A penumbral </span>eclipse<span> occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's penumbra. The penumbra causes a subtle darkening of the Moon's surface.</span>
Answer:
The purpose of the experiment is to see how water of different temperature and salinity affect the density.
Explanation:
Temperature and salinity directly affect the density of the water. Water of low temperature is more dense than water of high temperature, BUT, (fresh)water with no salt is less dense than (sea)water with more salt, so temperature and salinity change density of water.
