Answer:Mechanical weathering
weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals that are stable at the Earth's surface.
Carboxylic acids and alcohols have higher boiling point
than other hydrocarbons due to their polarity and from the fact that they form
very strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding. This is due to the large
difference in their electronegativity that forms between the oxygen and the
hydrogen atom.
Answer:
Genetic equilibrium is the state in which allele frequencies do
not change in a generation over generation.
Explanation:
Genetic equilibrium can be described as a situation which arises when a certain allele or genotype remains constant for a species generation over generations. Genetic equilibrium can be maintained if no external factors like mutations affect the population of the species. The phenomenon of natural selection and evolution need to be stopped if a genetic equilibrium is to be maintained. Hardy-Weinberg theorem is the mathematical depiction of genetic equilibrium.
Answer:
Methane (CH₄)
Explanation:
Titan refers to the largest moon of the planet Saturn, comprising a very dense atmosphere. This moon is primarily comprised of nitrogen gas, which is similar to the conditions in earth. It is extremely cold having a temperature of about ₋180°C, as a result of which it is difficult for the liquid water to exist.
Acid rain is a type of precipitation that occurs in the earth and it results in the release of a certain amount of methane gas (CH₄). Similarly, there also occurs precipitation in Titan but it releases CH₄ instead of water. This methane is responsible for the increasing amount of temperature.
Thus, methane is a chemical that is present int the Titan's atmosphere, and it plays a similar role as in earth, the water plays by forming snow, rain, and ice.
Answer:
The net chemical equation is: 6 H2O(g) + C3H8(g) → 10 H2(g) + 3 CO2(g)
Explanation:
First equation:
The reactants propane and water react to form the products CO and H2
C3H8(g) + 3H2O(g) → 3CO(g) + 7H2(g)
Second equation:
The products CO and H2 will react
CO(g) + H2O(g) → H2(g) + CO2(g)
We should multiply the equation by 3 (to equal the products of the first equation)
3CO(g) + 3H2O(g) → 3H2(g) + 3CO2(g)
Add the second to the first equation:
C3H8(g) + 3 H2O(g) + 3 CO(g) + 3 H2O(g) → 3 H2(g) + 3CO2(g) + 3 CO(g) + 7 H2(g)
The net chemical equation is: 6 H2O(g) + C3H8(g) → 10 H2(g) + 3 CO2(g)
