Which condition is most responsible for causing wind?

Chemistry
1 answer:
erik [133]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct option is C. Uneven heating of the earth by the sun  is the condition most responsible for causing wind.

Explanation:

Wind arises due to contrasting pressures at different parts of the earth. These separate atmospheric pressures are caused due to the uneven heat showered by the sun on the earth. Hence, this phenomenon will generate the movements of winds from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure.

Other options such as Coriolis effect are incorrect because the Coriolis effect explains the deflections caused in the wind, it is not the actual reason why winds are caused.

Below is the equation of sucrose and sulfuric acid-producing carbon, water vapor and sulfur dioxide.
Karolina [17]

Answer:

11 is the coefficient for C to balance the equation

Explanation:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁(s)  +  H₂SO₄(aq)  +  1/2 O₂(g)   → 11C(s) + CO₂(g) + 12H₂O(g) + SO₂(g)

12 Carbons in left side   →   12 Carbons in right side

12 in sucrose → 11 in solid C + 1 in the CO₂

24 Hydrogens in left side → 24 Hydrogens in right side

22 in sucrose + 2 in sulfuric → 24 in water vapor

1 S in left side → 1 S in right side

1 S in sulfuric → 1 S in sulfur dioxide

16 O in left side → 16 O in right side

11 O in sucrose + 4 in sulfuric + 1 O at ground state → 2 O in carbon dioxide + 12 in water vapor + 2 in sulfur dioxide

Use Boyle's Law to solve this problem: A gas has a volume of 10.0 L at a pressure of 4.0 atm. If the gas expands to 20.0 L, what
NARA [144]

Answer:

P₂ = 2 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 10.0 L

Initial pressure = 4.0 atm

Final volume = 20.0 L

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

4.0 atm × 10.0 L = P₂ × 20.0 L

P₂ = 40.0  atm. L/ 20.0 L

P₂ = 2 atm
