The rotation of the earth viewed from the south pole is clockwise.
a low pressure area would have a clockwise turning and a high pressure area would have a counterclockwise turnig

Now consider a low pressure area on a disk as shown below.A parcel of air at point A would move toward the center of the low pressure area. That movement would take it farther away from the center of the disk and therefore it would move to the west. A parcel of air at B would move toward the center of the low pressure area which would also take it closer to the center of the spinning disk where its speed is greater than the surrounding points. It would appear to move to the east. With A moving to the west and B moving to the east the line from A to B is rotating counterclockwise.

A certain amount of hydrogen peroxide was dissolved in 100. mL of water and then titrated with 1.68 M KMnO4. What mass of H2O2 w

Stels [109]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

First to all, this is a redox reaction, and the reaction taking place is the following:

2KMnO4 + 3H2SO4 + 5H2O2 -----> 2MnSO4 + K2SO4 + 8H2O + 5O2

According to this reaction, we can see that the mole ratio between the peroxide and the permangante is 5:2. Therefore, if the titration required 21.3 mL to reach the equivalence point, then, the moles would be:

MhVh = MpVp

h would be the hydrogen peroxide, and p the permanganate.

But like it was stated before, the mole ratio is 5:2 so:

5MhVh = 2MpVp

Replacing moles:

5nh = 2MpVp

Now, we just have to replace the given data:

nh = 2MpVp/5

nh = 2 * 1.68 * 0.0213 / 5

nh = 0.0143 moles

Now to get the mass, we just need the molecular mass of the peroxide:

MM = 2*1 + 2*16 = 34 g/mol

Finally the mass:

m = 0.0143 * 34

m = 0.4862 g

How many molecules in each sample? 64.7 g N2 83 g CCl4 19 g C6H12O6

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1.39x10²⁴ molecules N₂

.25x10²³ molecules CCl₄

6.38x10²² molecules C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

First we convert the given masses into moles, using the compounds' respective molar mass:

64.7 g N₂ ÷ 28 g/mol = 2.31 mol N₂

83 g CCl₄ ÷ 153.82 g/mol = 0.540 mol CCl₄

19 g C₆H₁₂O₆ ÷ 180 g/mol = 0.106 mol C₆H₁₂O₆

Then we multiply each amount by Avogadro's number, to calculate the number of molecules:

2.31 mol N₂ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 1.39x10²⁴ molecules

0.540 mol CCl₄ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 3.25x10²³ molecules

0.106 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 6.38x10²² molecules

The chemistry of living things and living systems created a new combined field in science known as

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Biochemistry.

Explanation:

Biochemistry can be defined as the branch of science that deals with the study of the chemical processes, physio-chemical reactions and various substances that are found in living organisms such as animals, plants, and microorganisms.

Simply stated, biochemistry is a field in science that combines both the elements of biology and chemistry in order to study living organisms.

For example, all living organisms have the ability to engage in respiration in other to breathe in oxygen to stay alive. Thus, biochemistry helps us to understand respiration as a physio-chemical process that converts glucose into a form of energy (Adenosine Triphosphate-ATP) that is beneficial to all living organisms.

Hence, the chemistry of living things and living systems created a new combined field in science known as biochemistry.
