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.

two drops of mercury on a flat surface are rolled towards each other. When they make contact with each other they fuse to form o
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:1) It is due to large cohesive force acting between the molecules of mercury that the droplets of mercury when brought in contact pulled together to form a bigger drop in order to make potential energy minimum. The temperature of this bigger drop increases since the total surface area decreases.  

2) A spherical shape has the minimum surface area to volume ratio of all geometric forms. When two drops of a liquid are brought in contact, the cohesive forces between their molecules coalesce the drops into a single larger drop. This is because, the volume of the liquid remaining the same, the surface area of the resulting single drop is less than the combined surface area of the smaller drops. The resulting decrease in surface energy is released into the environment as heat.

What is the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 10.305 g of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, in water and diluting with water to
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

0.9359 M

Explanation:

M(CaCO3)=100.1 g/mol

10.305 g * 1 mol/100.1 g = 10.305/100.1 mol CaCO3

(10.305/100.1 mol )/0.1100 L = 0.936 mol/L = 0.9359 M

77julia77 [94]

Answer:-

Phosphorus

Explanation:-

In the third period among the elements given, phosphorus is at the most right side among them in the periodic table.

We know that as we go from left to right in the periodic table, the atomic size decreases due to the increase in nuclear charge.

Hence phosphorus is the smallest among them

Why is acetic anhydride added slowly to a dichloromethane solution of the other reactants?
storchak [24]
Acetic anhydride is the only monocarboxylic acid anhydride which is an acylating agent capable of modifying reactions. The dichloromethane is the reaction solvent.

The acetic anhydride should be added slowly through a separatory funnel to other reactants so as to avoid a runaway reaction, also known as thermal runaway. By doing this the reaction mixture boils as gently as possible while stirring. This phenomenon occurs in situations where an increase in temperature changes the conditions in a way that leads to destructive result brought about by a further increase in temperature.
