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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]4 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 a runner maintains a constant speed of 12 miles an hour how long will it take to complete a half marathon race of 13.1 miles?
Nutka1998 [239]
At 12 mph, how long does it take to go 13.1 miles?

We know that distance = rate * time
So we know that 13.1 = 12 * time
We can now see that time = 13.1/12 = 1.092 (hours)
That's approximately 1 hour and .092*60=5.52 minutes.

This would be a "physical change" . ________________________________________________________

<u>Note</u>: This would change from a "solid" to a "liquid" / mere rearrangement of molecules/ NOT a new chemical substance—hence, a "physical change".

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

There are three different elements in given chemical equation. These elements are hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.

Chemical equation:

2CH₄ + 4O₂       →       2CO₂ + 4H₂O

This equation shows the burning of methane. When methane burns in the presence of oxygen it produced water and carbondioxide.

We can see that all the reactant and product are made up of only three elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

There are two reactant and two products in given reaction.

This reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

We can see that there are two carbon eight hydrogen and eight oxygen  atoms on both side of equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
