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.

Which of the following best explains how the results of Rutherford’s experiment affected Thomson’s widely-accepted atomic model?
hichkok12 [17]

Explanation:

Thomson's suggested the plum pudding model of the atom in which the atomic space is made up of electrons surround by positive charges.

Rutherford in his gold foil experiment revised the plum pudding model of the atom;

  • He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the foil while a few of them were deflected back.
  • To explain this observation, he suggested the atomic model of the atom.
  • In this model, an atom is made up of a small positively charged center where nearly all the mass is concentrated.
  • Surrounding the nucleus is the extranuclear part made up of electrons.

How many grams of fluorine are needed to react with 8.5g of phosphorus?
love history [14]

Step 1: write the equation:

                                          P₄(s) + 6F₂(g) → 4PF₃(g) 


Step 2: Molar mass of P₄ = 30.97 g/mol × 4 = 123.88 g/mol


Step 3: Number of moles of phosphorus

                                                    n = m/M 

                                                    n = 8.5 g/123.88g/mol

                                                    n = 0.07 moles


Step 4: 0.07 × 12 = 0.84 moles of fluorine.

Fluorine is diatomic gas so we multiplied the number of moles by 12.


Step 5: To find the mass of fluorine we multiply the number of moles with the molar mass.

                            Mass of fluorine = 0.84 ×  228 

                                                        = 191.52 grams.
