What is a term called gradient in Earth Science?

The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.

In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

She will need to add 5.6 cups of water

Explanation:

Hi there!

Marta has to dilute the citric acid to 5%.

The dilution factor will be 12%/ 5% = 2.4. Then, Marta will need to dilute the citric acid 2.4 times. If she has 4 cups of the solution, she will need to add water until she completes a volume of (4 cups ·2.4) 9.6 cups to reach the desired concentration.

Then, she will need to add 9.6 - 4 cups water = 5.6 cups of water

Another way to solve this is by using the fact that the mass of citric acid in the concentrated and diluted solution is the same. Then:

mass citric acid concentrated solution = mass citric acid in dilute solution

mass of citric acid = concentration · volume

Then:

initial concentration · volume = final concentration  · volume

12% · 4 cups = 5% · volume

volume = 12% · 4 cups / 5% = 9.6 cups

The final volume of the solution at 5% will be 9.6 cups. So Marta will need 9.6 cups - 4 cups = 5.6 cups water

G We've all blown up balloons. When you blow into a balloon, you are putting in more moles of gas. Let's say that on the second exhalation (blow) you blow in the exact same number of moles as you did with the first exhalation. So, you doubled the number of moles in the balloon. If the temperature and pressure remained constant, what is true about the volume of the gas in the balloon
