Because they contain more land.

Continental climates are found in the Northern Hemisphere more because the Northern Hemisphere is broader and has more land mass than the Southern Hemisphere. There isn't a lot of land in the Southern half and this most likely results in why the Northern Hemisphere has continental climates.

I hope this helps!

Which trait is most likely a result of artificial selection

ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:Artificial selection is distinct from natural selection in that it describes selection applied by humans in order to produce genetic change. When artificial selection is imposed, the trait or traits being selected are known, whereas with natural selection they have to be inferred. In most circumstances and unless otherwise qualified, directional selection is applied, i.e., only high-scoring individuals are favored for a quantitative trait. Artificial selection is the basic method of genetic improvement programs for crop plants or livestock (see Selective Breeding). It is also used as a tool in the laboratory to investigate the genetic properties of a trait in a species or population, for example, the magnitude of genetic variance or heritability, the possible duration of and limits to selection, and the correlations among traits, including with fitness.

onsider the following reaction: CaCN2 + 3 H2O → CaCO3 + 2 NH3 105.0 g CaCN2 and 78.0 g H2O are reacted. Assuming 100% efficiency

mestny [16]

Answer : The excess reactant is, $H_2O$

The leftover amount of excess reagent is, 7.2 grams.

Solution : Given,

Mass of $CaCN_2$ = 105.0 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 78.0 g

Molar mass of $CaCN_2$ = 80.11 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $CaCO_3$ = 100.09 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $CaCN_2$ and $H_2O$ .

$\text{ Moles of }CaCN_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }CaCN_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }CaCN_2}=\frac{105.0g}{80.11g/mole}=1.31moles$

$\text{ Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{ Mass of }H_2O}{\text{ Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{78.0g}{18g/mole}=4.33moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$CaCN_2+3H_2O\rightarrow CaCO_3+2NH_3$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $CaCN_2$ react with 3 mole of $H_2O$

So, 1.31 moles of $CaCN_2$ react with $1.31\times 3=3.93$ moles of $H_2O$

From this we conclude that, $H_2O$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $CaCN_2$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Left moles of excess reactant = 4.33 - 3.93 = 0.4 moles

Now we have to calculate the mass of excess reactant.

$\text{ Mass of excess reactant}=\text{ Moles of excess reactant}\times \text{ Molar mass of excess reactant}(H_2O)$

$\text{ Mass of excess reactant}=(0.4moles)\times (18g/mole)=7.2g$

Thus, the leftover amount of excess reagent is, 7.2 grams.
