Answer:

The answer is decreased temperature and increased salinity

Explanation:

It is what is known as the thermohaline circulation

The thermohaline circulation moves the water slowly. This water moves mainly due to differences in its relative density. Much denser water sinks over water that is less dense. Two factors impact the density of seawater: temperature and salinity.

Cold water is denser than hot water:

-Water cools when it loses heat, it occurs at high latitudes.

-Water is heated when it receives energy from the sun, at low latitudes.

Saltier water is much denser than water that has less salt:

-Sea water becomes salty if the evaporation rate increases.

-Sea water becomes less salty if there is a water inlet over the sea.

0.102 g of an unknown(non electrolyte) compound is dissolved in enough water to make 100. mL of a solution and has an osmotic pr
Leni [432]

Answer:

680 g/m is the molar mass for the unknown, non electrolyte, compound.

Explanation:

Let's apply the formula for osmotic pressure

π = Molarity . R . T

T = T° absolute (in K)

R = Universal constant gases

π = Pressure

Molarity = mol/L

As units of R are  L.atm/mol.K, we have to convert the mmHg to atm

760 mmHg  is 1 atm

28.1 mmHg is (28.1  .1)/760 = 0.0369 atm

0.0369 atm = M . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 293K

(0.0369 atm / 0.082 mol.K/L.atm . 293K) = M

0.0015 mol/L = Molarity

This data means the mol of solute in 1L, but we have 100mL so

Molarity . volume = mol

0.0015 mol/L . 0.1L = 1.5x10⁻⁴ mole

The molar mass will be: 0.102g / 1.5x10⁻⁴ m = 680 g/m

What is the pH of a solution that has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1.0 * 10 -9 M? Show your calculation.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

9.00  

Explanation:

Data:

[H⁺] = 1.0 × 10⁻⁹ mol·L⁻¹

Calculation:

pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(1.0 × 10⁻⁹) = -log(1.0) - log(10⁻⁹) = -0.00 - (-9) = -0.00 + 9 = 9.00

Elements have similar characteristics?<br> Periodic TaBle<br> oF The Elements
Ann [662]

Answer:

See attachment.

Explanation:

Elements that are in the same group will definitely possess similar characteristics because they tend to have the same valence electron which determines their reactivity.

On a periodic table, elements in the same group can be found arranged on the same column in the periodic table.

Therefore the two elements that have similar characteristics are those two elements you can see on the same column in group 2. See the two elements indicated in the attachment below.

What is the volume of 2 mol of chlorine gas at STP?<br> 2.0 L<br> 11.2 L<br> 22.4 L<br> 44.8 L
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

44.8 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At Standard temperature and pressure (STP);

P = 1 atm

T = 273K

Hence, when n = 2moles, the volume of the gas is:

Using PV = nRT

1 × V = 2 × 0.0821 × 273

V = 44.83

V = 44.8 L
