What creates the van allen belts

Chemistry
2 answers:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

b. deflection of charged particles  

Explanation:

The Van Allen Belt is a region where various atmospheric phenomena occur due to deflection of charged particles in the Earth's magnetic field, discovered in 1958 by James Van Allen, who designed a cosmic ray experiment embarked on the American explorer spacecraft Explorer 1, launched in January 2000. 1958. Van Allen's radiations do not occur, except for rare exceptions, at the poles, but in the equatorial region. These form two ring-shaped belts, centered on the equator.  The innermost reaches between altitudes of one thousand and five thousand kilometers, its maximum intensity occurring on average at three thousand kilometers. It consists of highly energetic protons, which originate from the decay of neutrons produced when cosmic rays from outer space collide with atoms and molecules of the earth's atmosphere. Some of the neutrons are ejected out of the atmosphere and disintegrate into protons and electrons as they cross this region of the belt. These particles move in spiral trajectories along force lines of the earth's magnetic field.

How many hydrogen atoms are in 35.0 grams of hydrogen gas? How many hydrogen atoms are in 35.0 grams of hydrogen gas? 4.25 × 102
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: 2.12\times 10^{25} atoms of hydrogen are there in

35.0 grams of hydrogen gas.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{35.0g}{2g/mol}=17.5moles

1 mole of hydrogen (H_2) = 2\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=12.05\times 10^{23} atoms

17.5 mole of hydrogen (H_2) = \frac{12.05\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 17.5=2.12\times 10^{25} atoms

There are 2.12\times 10^{25} atoms of hydrogen are there in

35.0 grams of hydrogen gas.

Define the following terms:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. The absorbed energy provides the activation energy for the reaction to occur eg Melting of ice, Evaporating liquid water

   b)An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the release of energy in the form of heat or light.eg a spark, flame, or flash), electricity , a battery), or sound , explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

c)By definition an exothermic reaction produces heat as part of it’s process. The heat generated just by being alive is an exothermic process as well. And as such we become aware of when we feel “too cold” or “too hot” and try to either adjust to the conditions we are in, or minimize them, if possible. It is not merely odd, but contrary to intelligent living, that we choose to increase our discomfort and also risk our health by intentionally increasing not only the exothermic reactions we use but also maximize them to our own detriment. In short, the increased use of inefficient exothermic reactions while inexpensive in current evaluations of financial cost are extremely expensive in terms of it’s effect upon living things, including ourselves. It is as though we are choosing our homes to not only be next to a furnace, but as close as possible to the process.
