Answer:

The most recent ice age ended about 10,000 years ago

Explanation:

The last ice age began 110,000 years ago and ended 10,000 years ago, leading to the temperature of the Earth, expansions of glaciers and polar ice caps were made.

Explain why noble gases usually do not form bonds with other atoms?

katovenus [111]

Noble gases' outer shells are already filled with 8 electrons (other than He, which has 2, but is still filled and stable). Atoms bond with other elements to fill their outer shell, but they don't need to do that and are already stable.

1. Meteorologist predict the weather by using tools. They use these tools to measure atmospheric conditions that occurred in the past and present, and they apply this information to create educated guesses about the future weather. The best we can do is observe past and present atmospheric patterns and data, and apply this information to what we think will happen in the future. Meteorologists use the scientific method on a daily – and even hourly – basis!

2. They use thermometers, barometers, sling psychrometers and rain gauges. They also use anemometers, hygrometers, weather maps, weather balloons and weather satellites.

A weather balloon is filled with helium that occupies a volume of 5.57 104 L at 0.995 atm and 32.0°C. After it is released, it r

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Helium is a noble gas. The interaction between two helium molecules is rather weak, which makes the gas rather "ideal."

Consider the ideal gas law:

$P\cdot V = n\cdot R\cdot T$ ,

where

$P$ is the pressure of the gas,
$V$ is the volume of the gas,
$n$ is the number of gas particles in the gas,
$R$ is the ideal gas constant, and
$T$ is the absolute temperature of the gas in degrees Kelvins.

The question is asking for the final volume $V$ of the gas. Rearrange the ideal gas equation for volume:

$V = \dfrac{n \cdot R \cdot T}{P}$ .

Both the temperature of the gas, $T$ , and the pressure on the gas changed in this process. To find the new volume of the gas, change one variable at a time.

Start with the absolute temperature of the gas:

$T_0 = (32.0 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 305.15\;\text{K}$ ,
$T_1 = (-14.5 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 258.65\;\text{K}$ .

The volume of the gas is proportional to its temperature if both $n$ and $P$ stay constant.

$n$ won't change unless the balloon leaks, and
consider $P$ to be constant, for calculations that include $T$ .

$V_1 = V_0 \cdot \dfrac{T_1}{T_2} = 5.57\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times \dfrac{258.65\;\textbf{K}}{305.15\;\textbf{K}} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}$ .

Now, keep the temperature at $T_1 =258.65\;\text{K}$ and change the pressure on the gas:

$P_1 = 0.995\;\text{atm}$ ,
$P_2 = 0.720\;\text{atm}$ .

The volume of the gas is proportional to the reciprocal of its absolute temperature $\dfrac{1}{T}$ if both $n$ and $T$ stays constant. In other words,

$V_2 = V_1 \cdot\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{P_2}}{\dfrac{1}{P_1}} = V_1\cdot\dfrac{P_1}{P_2} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times\dfrac{0.995\;\text{atm}}{0.720\;\text{atm}}=6.52\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}$

(3 sig. fig. as in the question.).

See if you get the same result if you hold $T$ constant, change $P$ , and then move on to change $T$ .
