Which landform is located at the mouth of the river?

1 answer:

3 0

Landforms. At the mouth of a river, the change in flow condition can cause the river to drop any sediment it is carrying. This sediment deposition can generate a variety of landforms, such as deltas, sand bars, spits, and tie channels.

What energy resource can be used instead of fossil fuel

lozanna [386]

We could use solar power, wind power, geothermal power, hydroelectric power, or nuclear power. There are probably more but this is what I can think of off the top of my head. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Analysis of the water content of a lake found in the desert showed that it contained 17.5 percent chloride ion, and has a densit

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The molarity is 6.0 M.

Explanation:

The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given amount of solvent, or a given amount of solution.

In this problem, we are asked to convert percent by mass to molarity, which are two different concentration units.

The percent by mass is the ratio of the mass of a solute to the mass of the solution, multiplied by 100 percent. On the other hand, molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

If we have 17.15 percent chloride ion, that means that we have 17.15 grams of chloride ion in 100 grams of solution. The density provided is the density of the solution, so we calculate how many mL correspond to 100 grams of solution:

1.23 g ----------- 1 mL

100 g ------------ x= 81.3 mL

Therefore, 17.5 grams of chloride ion are contained in 81.3 mL. Now we need to convert these grams into moles.

The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mol:

35.5 g --------------- 1 mol

17.5 g --------------- x= 0. 49 mol

This 0.49 moles are contained in 81.13 mL, the definition of molarity says that this moles are contained in a liter (or what is the same, 1000 mL):

81.3 mL --------------- 0.49 mol

1000 mL ------------- x= 6.0 M

The molarity of the chloride ion will be 6.0 M.

A stack of 10 pennies weighing 26.55 grams is placed in a graduated cylinder containing water. The initial volume of water is 50

BigorU [14]

In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).

Which of the following statements is true with regard to transverse and longitudinal waves?

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

D (The last answer)

Explanation:

In a transverse wave, particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

In a longitudinal wave, the oscillations of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation.

Match each statement with a layer of the atmosphere. There will be two statements for each layer.

LuckyWell [14K]

The troposphere:

H. This layer can have thunderstorms or clear, sunny skies.

A. The biosphere interacts most with this layer.

The stratosphere:

B. It is the second layer from Earth's surface.

G. Winds are strong and steady in this layer.

The mesosphere:

E. It is heated by the ozone layer beneath it.

D. This layer is where most meteor showers occur.

The thermosphere :

F. It contains the ionosphere and exosphere.

C. It contains layers of single, unmixed gas.

Explanation:

Depending on the Earth's temperature the atmosphere can be separated into layers. The troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere are those layers. The lowest layer is named as Troposphere (0-10 km from the Earth outer surface), it comprises about 75% of the atmosphere's total air and nearly most the water vapor.

Stratosphere (10-30) includes much of the surface ozone. The change in height temperature arises as this ozone absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. The temperature in Mesosphere (30-50 Km) declines again with height, hitting a minimum of about -90 ° C at the "mesopause." Above this thermosphere (50-400 Km) is settled which is a area where temperatures rise with height once again. The penetration of intense UV and X-ray radiation from the sun induces this temperature rise.
