Answer: Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one. Examples, of mass extinctions are Permian extinction of marine species, and Cretaceous extinction of various species, including dinosaurs.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
If the spot in TLC is below the solvent front, it will be observed that the spot, instead of being separated by the solvent as expected, will just dissolve away in the solvent and zero actual separation of the mixture is achieved.
If the solute is dissolved away instead of being separated by the solvent, then the experiment fails because no actual separation of the mixture is achieved.
Hence, in TLC, the spot must be applied above the solvent front so that the capillary movement of the solvent through the plate can lead to the eventual separation of the components of the mixture since the various components of the mixture will travel at different speeds through the plate.
Also, if the solvent is above the spot, the solvent may evaporate selectively from the points above the spot while separation is ongoing.
Answer:
The relative humidity is low
Explanation:
The higher the dew point rises, the greater the amount of moisture in the air. The lower the humidity, the lower the dew point. The dew point is low and thus water cannot exist in liquid state but as a gas.
Only one. variable to get a reliable results you only have to change one.
