The correct option is A.
In the convection cell, cold air sinks at the poles because of their high pressure. As the air moves away from the poles along the earth surface, it begins to get warm and its pressure reduces. Convection cells are circular pattern of wind which are caused by the rising and sinking of wind.

A. In the convection current, the less dense, warmer air, rises, while the cold air sinks because it's more dense. I hope this helps.

Elimination of the pharmaceutical IV antibiotic gentamicin follows first-order kinetics. If the half-life of gentamicin is 1.5 h
Genrish500 [490]

Explanation:

The given data is:

The half-life of gentamicin is 1.5 hrs.

The reaction follows first-order kinetics.

The initial concentration of the reactants is 8.4 x 10-5 M.

The concentration of reactant after 8 hrs can be calculated as shown below:

The formula of the half-life of the first-order reaction is:

k=\frac{0.693}{t_1_/_2}

Where k = rate constant

t1/2=half-life

So, the rate constant k value is:

k=\frac{0.693}{1.5 hrs}

The expression for the rate constant is :

k=\frac{2.303}{t} log \frac{initial concentration}{concentration after time "t"}

Substitute the given values and the k value in this formula to get the concentration of the reactant after time 8 hrs is shown below:

\frac{0.693}{1.5 hrs} =\frac{2.303}{8 hrs} x log \frac{8.4x10^-^5}{y} \\ log \frac{8.4x10^-^5}{y} =1.604\\\frac{8.4x10^-^5}{y}=10^1^.^6^0^4\\\frac{8.4x10^-^5}{y}=40.18\\y=\frac{8.4x10^-^5}{40.18} \\=>y=2.09x10^-^6

Answer: The concentration of reactant remains after 8 hours is 2.09x10^-6M.

Part B Write the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of hydrobromic
Doss [256]

Answer:

HBr(aq) + LiOH(aq) → LiBr(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is a process in which an acid, aqeous HBr reacts completely with an appropriate amount of base, aqueous LiOH to produce salt, aqueous LiBr and water, liquid H2O only.

HBr(aq) + LiOH(aq) → LiBr(aq) + H2O(l)

Acid + base → Salt + Water.

During this reaction, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HBr is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the LiOH to form the water molecule, H2O.

Thus, it is called a neutralization reaction.

What is the transfer of electrons in Al + Cl = AlCl3
otez555 [7]

Answer:

3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.

Explanation

This is a redox reaction.

  • Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
  • Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
  • An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
  • [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)

A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.

Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl

[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹

[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.

and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]

This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.

Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃

Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)

Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
