Answer: b. wind and the earth rotation

Explanation:

The surface oceanic water currents originates in the water due to the wind currents blowing over the surface of the water creating a specific pattern in the water and the other factor responsible is spinning motion of the earth. The surface oceanic currents forms a large circular pattern in the water that is called as gyre.

A lead mass is heated and placed in a foam cup calorimeter containing 40.0 mL of water at 17.0°C. The water reaches a temperatur

lbvjy [14]

Answer: 502 Joules

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 40.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{40.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 40.0mL)=40.0g$

When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by lead will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

$Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}$

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

$q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

q = heat absorbed by water

$m$ = mass of water = 40.0 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature of water = 20.0°C

$T_{initial$ = initial temperature of water = 17.0°C

$c$ = specific heat of water= 4.186 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$q=40.0\times 4.186\times (20.0-17.0)]$

$q=502J$

Hence, the joules of heat were re-leased by the lead is 502

Given the balanced equation, 2 H2 + O2 -> 2 H2O, answer the following

9966 [12]

Answer: $O_2$ is the limiting reagent

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} H_2=\frac{10.0g}{2g/mol}=5.00moles$

$\text{Moles of} O_2=\frac{20.0g}{32g/mol}=0.625moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is :

$2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of $O_2$ require = 2 moles of $H_2$

Thus 0.625 moles of $O_2$ will require= $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.625=1.25moles$ of $H_2$

Thus $O_2$ is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and $H_2$ is the excess reagent as it is present more than the required amount.
