Air currents move objects in the air. Explain how a convection current might affect the flight of a hot air balloon

Chemistry
1 answer:
photoshop1234 [79]4 years ago
6 0

Hot/ warm air is less dense than cold/cool air. Therefore warm/ hot air rises and cool/cold air falls in the atmosphere to create convection currents. The hot air balloon also uses this concept to fly. The air in the balloon is heated by the inbuilt flamer and when the air rises in temperatures (in comparison to ambient air temperatures) it becomes less dense and begins to rise. This raises the balloon into the atmosphere.

What is a covalent bond​
diamong [38]

Answer:

Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. Electron pairs shared between atoms of equal or very similar electronegativity constitute a nonpolar covalent bond (e.g., H–H or C–H), while electrons shared between atoms of unequal electronegativity constitute a polar covalent bond (e.g., H–O).

Suppose that CO2 in the atmosphere was held at a constant, natural level for a few thousand years. Then, CO2 was added to double
jasenka [17]

Answer: Temperature before the increase in CO_2 was a few degrees lower than temperature after the increase.

Explanation:

According to Charle's Law which states that The volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas, when pressure is kept constant.

(Volume)\propto (Temperature)

\frac{volume}{temperature}=constant (At constant Pressure)

With the increase in level CO_2 in atmosphere the increase in temperature of the atmosphere will be observed.

Hence, temperature before the increase in CO_2 was a few degrees lower than temperature after the increase.

How is dinitrogen (1) oxide distinguished shed from oxygen​
grigory [225]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Both oxygen and dinitrogen (1) oxide are known to rekindle a glowing splint. However, oxygen is an odorless gas while dinitrogen (1) oxide has a faint smell and has an effect on the central nervous system.

Also, the combustion of dinitrogen (1) oxide produces brown fumes of nitrogen IV oxide.

Finally, when dinitrogen (1) oxide and oxgen are both heated with copper, residual nitrogen gas is left with dinitrogen (1) oxide while no residual gas is left with oxygen.

One of the uses of methanol (CH3OH) in dilute form is as a windshield washer antifreeze. In pure form, methanol has a molar conc
Dovator [93]
<h3>Mol of methanol =12.35</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

Mole itself is the number of particles contained in a substance

1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles

Mole : the ratio of the amount of substance mass and its molar mass

\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{mole=\frac{mass}{molar\:mass}}}}

Molarity is a way to express the concentration of the solution

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

\large{\boxed {\bold {M ~ = ~ \frac {n} {V}}}

Molar concentration of methanol=24.7 M

Volume of solution = 500 ml = 0.5 L

\tt mol=M\times V\\\\mol=24.7\times 0.5\\\\mol=12.35

1.What one factor identifies an atom as a specific element? . . Choices: the number of protons. . the atomic mass. . the number
Mnenie [13.5K]
Question 1. What one factor identifies an atom as a specific element? Answer: the number of protons. Remember that the atoms of a same element have the same number of protons, and the atoms of different elements cannot have the same number of protons. That permits to order the elements according to the atomic number (number of protons) in the periodic table. Question 2.An atom of fluorine has an atomic number of 9 and an atomic mass of 19. The atom contains Answer: 9 protons, 9 electrons, and 10 neutrons : because the atomic number is the number of protons, the number of electrons must be equal to the number of protons (because the atom is neutral), and the mass number is the number or protons plus the number of neutrons: 9 protons + 10 neutrons = 19 mass number (atomic mass). Question 33.Experiments with cathode ray tubes led to a new model of the atom, sometimes called the \"plum pudding\" model, because of the discovery of the <span>. Answer. electron ... when electron was discovered JJ Thompson proposed the plum pudding model, in which the atom was a solid positively charged sphere with electrons distributed inside it.</span>
