The boiling point of a substance in City A is found to be 145 degrees celcius. The boiling point of the same substance in City B

is 141 degrees celcuis. Which city, A or B, is at a higher elevation? How do you know?

City B is at a higher temperature because as you go higher in altitude the boiling point of water becomes lower.

A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.60 gg of Sr(OH)2Sr(OH)2 in water to make 47.00 mLmL of solution.What

Answer:

Approximately $1.854\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.

<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of $\rm Sr$ , $\rm O$ , and $\rm H$ on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.

$\rm Sr$ : $87.62$ .
$\rm O$ : $15.999$ .
$\rm H$ : $1.008$ .

Calculate the formula mass of $\rm Sr(OH)_2$ :

$M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) = 87.62 + 2\times (15.999 + 1.008) = 121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ .

<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>

$M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) =121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ means that each mole of $\rm Sr(OH)_2$ formula units have a mass of $121.634\; \rm g$ .

The question states that there are $10.60\; \rm g$ of $\rm Sr(OH)_2$ in this solution.

How many moles of $\rm Sr(OH)_2$ formula units would that be?

$\begin{aligned}n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{m\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}\\ &= \frac{10.60\; \rm g}{121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>

There are $8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Sr(OH)_2$ formula units in this $47\; \rm mL$ solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:

$V = 47\; \rm mL = 0.047\; \rm L$ .

The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:

$\begin{aligned}c\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{V}\\ &= \frac{8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol}{0.047\; \rm L} \approx 1.854\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

(Rounded to four significant figures.)

How does wind develop

avanturin [10]

It is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds that vary in speed. On Earth, air is also deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.
