<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
exceeds evaporation over land
Precipitation<u> exceeds evaporation over land </u>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>In order to maintain earths water balance, evaporation exceeds precipitation over oceans but precipitation exceeds evaporation over land.</u></em>
- Water evaporates into the atmosphere from the ocean and to a much lesser extent from the continents. Winds transport this moisture-laden air, often great distances, until conditions cause the moisture to condense into clouds and to precipitate and fall.
- Most precipitation originates by evaporation from the oceans. Over time, water evaporated from the oceans is replenished by inflow of freshwater from rivers and streams.
Answer:
Endergonic reaction or nonspontaneous reaction.
Explanation:
Gibbs free energy is a state function that determines the spontaneity or feasibility of the given reversible chemical reaction, at fixed pressure and temperature. It is given by the equation:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
Here, ΔG - change in Gibbs free energy
ΔH- The change in enthalpy of reaction
ΔS - The change in entropy
T- Temperature
When the <u>change in the Gibbs free energy for a given reaction is positive</u> (ΔG > 0), then that chemical reaction is known as an endergonic reaction or nonspontaneous reaction.
