How does warm water at the surface of the ocean become colder?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat energy always moves from hot to cold. The sunlight doesn't reach certain parts of the ocean due to it being so deep. The water above it absorbs it. So because this top water absorbs all the heat/energy, it is a lot warmer and is constantly transferring heat to the colder parts through kinetic energy. The warmer water has particles that have way more kinetic energy than the cold particles below it. And more kinetic energy means more movement, so that's why they transfer their heat to the colder particles.

I dont actually know if Im correct or not. Im just guessing based on what I know about physics.

If metal ions in a solution were reduced, what would you expect to see?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Solid metal

Explanation:

The reduced form of metal ions is the metal in elemental state (simple substance). So, if you have a solution with metal ions and they are reduced, you probably will see the deposition of the metal. For example: if you have a solution with sodium ions (Na⁺), and the ions are then reduced, you will see the aparition of a solid phase of metallic sodium (Na(s)), according to the following half-reaction:

Na⁺ + e- → Na(s)

What is the mole fraction of ethanol in a solution of 3.00 moles of ethanol and 5.00 moles of water?
Rus_ich [418]
If theres a mixture of components we can calculate the mole fraction
mole fraction can be calculated as follows
mole fraction of component = \frac{number of moles of component}{total number of moles of all components }
number of moles of ethanol - 3.00 mol
total number of moles in mixture - 3.00 + 5.00 = 8.00 mol 

mole fraction of ethanol = \frac{3.00 mol}{8.00 mol }
mole fraction of ethanol is 0.375
