Answer::Democritus

Explanation

The idea that all matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles, or atoms, is believed to have originated with the Greek philosopher Leucippus of Miletus and his student Democritus of Abdera in the 5th century B.C. (The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos, which means “indivisible.”) These thinkers held that,

A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When liquid octane is burned in air it reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.4 moles of Oxygen

Explanation:

Data

Octane (C₈H₈)

Oxygen (O₂)

Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Water (H₂O)

moles of water = ?

moles of Oxygen = 1

Balanced chemical reaction

                   C₈H₈  +10O₂  ⇒   8CO₂  +  4H₂O

              Reactant     Element     Products

                    8                 C                 8

                    8                 H                 8  

                   20                O               20  

Use proportions to solve this problem

                  10 moles of Oxygen ----------------- 4 moles of water

                    1 mol of Oxygen     ------------------ x

                    x = (4 x 1) / 10

                    x = 4 / 10

                    x = 0.4 moles of water

What causes the jet stream to move farther south?
Anni [7]
<span>Jet streams are the major means of transport for weather systems.  A jet stream is an area of strong winds ranging from 120-250 mph that can be thousands of miles long, a couple of hundred miles across and a few miles deep.  Jet streams usually sit at the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere at a level called the tropopause.  This means most jet streams are about 6-9 miles off the ground. Figure A is a cross section of a jet stream.
</span>

The dynamics of jet streams are actually quite complicated, so this is a very simplified version of what creates jets.  The basic idea that drives jet formation is this:  a strong horizontal temperature contrast, like the one between the North Pole and the equator, causes a dramatic increase in horizontal wind speed with height.  Therefore, a jet stream forms directly over the center of the strongest area of horizontal temperature difference, or the front.  As a general rule, a strong front has a jet stream directly above it that is parallel to it.  Figure B shows that jet streams are positioned just below the tropopause (the red lines) and above the fronts, in this case, the boundaries between two circulation cells carrying air of different temperatures.

What is the density (g/mL) of an object that has a mass of 0.03 kg and occupies a volume of 25 mL?
tatyana61 [14]
First convert the kg to g ----- 0.03kg = 30g
Then divide the mass by the volume ----- 30g ÷ 25mL = 1.2
The density is 1.2g/mL<span />
