What causes the surface ocean currents in the Northern Hemisphere to deflect to the right, and the currents in the Southern Hemi

sphere to deflect to the left?

AVprozaik [17]3 years ago

The Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotation reference frame. This causes moving objects to the right ( with respect to the direction of travel ) in the Northern hemisphere and to the left in the Southern hemisphere. The horizontal deflection is zero at the equator. It also causes the surface ocean currents in the Northern hemisphere to deflect to the right and the currents in the Southern hemisphere to deflect to the left.
Answer: the Coriolis force.

Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

1. A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition.

2. Matter is everything around you. Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter.

3. Solid, liquid and, gas

4. False

5. Our weight on moon is less than it would be on Earth due to a difference of the strength of gravity on the moon.

6. Physical changes only change the appearance of a substance, not its chemical composition. Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions.

Calculate the solubility at 25°C of CuBr in pure water and in a 0.0120M CoBr2 solution. You'll find Ksp data in the ALEKS Data t
iragen [17]

Answer:

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

To calculate the solubility of CuBr in pure water (S) we will use an ICE Chart. We identify 3 stages (Initial-Change-Equilibrium) and complete each row with the concentration or change in concentration. Let's consider the solution of CuBr.

    CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I                       0             0

C                     +S           +S

E                       S             S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S²

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

<u>Solubility in 0.0120 M CoBr₂ (S')</u>

First, we will consider the ionization of CoBr₂, a strong electrolyte.

CoBr₂(aq) → Co²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)

1 mole of CoBr₂ produces 2 moles of Br⁻. Then, the concentration of Br⁻ will be 2 × 0.0120 M = 0.0240 M.

Then,

    CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I                       0           0.0240

C                     +S'           +S'

E                       S'            0.0240 + S'

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S' . (0.0240 + S')

In the term (0.0240 + S'), S' is very small so we can neglect it to simplify the calculations.

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

What happens when the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure? The liquid freezes The intermolecular forces
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The liquid boils.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is simply defined as the pressure exerted on a substance (solid/liquid) by the vapor of the substance collected just at the top of the surface of the substance. In concise words, it is the pressure of Vapor that is in contact with its solid or liquid state.

For a liquid, it is the pressure of the Vapor gathering at the top of the surface of the liquid.

When this Vapor pressure matches the external pressure, the temperature stays constant and the molecules of the liquid all through the liquid can gain enough energy, rise to the surface of the liquid and break free in gaseous form; thereby, boiling.

The definition of boiling point basically explains that it is the point at which temperature stays constant, and the vapour pressure of the liquid matches the atmospheric/external pressure around the liquid and its liquid molecules change into vapor.

This is why liquids boil faster at higher altitudes; the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is reduced, hence, the temperature at which liquid boils at this high altitude is normally lower than its known boiling point temperature.

It is also why food cooks to a temperature higher than the boiling point of water in a pressure cooker/pot. The added pressure ensures that the cooking water boils at temperatures higher than its boiling point; thereby exposing the cooking ingredients to a higher temperature, leading to faster cooking.

Hence, it is obvious why boiling is the answer to this question.

1. Compare masses: a) 0,4mol CO₂ and 0,6mol H₂O ; b) 0,135mol H₂SO₄ and 0,5mol HCI.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

you can now deduct which one is greater or smaller and by how much.

Explanation:

no of moles= mass/molar mass

1ai) 0.4 = m/ ( 12 + (16*2)

m= 0.4* 44

m= 17.6g

ii) 0.6= m/( 2*1 + 16)

m= 0.6 *18

m= 10.8g

b) 0.135 = m/ ( 2*1 +32 + (16*4)

m= 0.135* 98

m= 13.23g

ii) 0.5= m/ (1+35.5)

m= 0.5*36.5

m= 18.25g

2. Avogadro's Number = 6.02×10²³

1 mol of any element= 6.02×10²³ particles

a) 0.1 mol of H20= (6.02×10²³) * 0.1

= 6.02×10²² molecules

ii) 0.3 mol of CO2= (6.02×10²³) * 0.3

= 1.806 × 10²³ molecules

Ans: 0.3 mol of CO2

bi) 0.25 mol of HCl= (6.02×10²³) * 0.25

= 1.505 × 10²³ molecules

bii) - find the no of moles first:

no of moles= mass/molar mass

n= 3.4g/ 34g →mr of H2S in g=2+32= 34g

n= 0.l mol

- use the Avogadro Number.

0.1 mol of H20= (6.02×10²³) * 0.1

= 6.02×10²² molecules.

biii) here you're given the density, use it to find the mass of acetic acid.

ρ = 1049 g/ml

ρ = m/v, where v=5 ml

1049 = m/ 5

m= ρ*v

m= 1049*5

m= 5245 g

• convert this into moles.

mr of CH3COOH= 12 + 3+ 12+ 16+ 16+ 1

= 60

mr in g = 60g

n= m/mr

n= 5245/ 60

n= 87. 41666...

n= 87.4 moles

•using Avogadro's Number:

87.4 moles of acetic acid=(6.02×10²³)*87.4

= 2.25148* 10²⁵

= 2.25 * 10²⁵ molecules

thus, the ans for this is 5 ml of acetic acid.

Rechargeable batteries use a _________________medium to convert electrical current to a form of chemical energy which can be sto
irinina [24]

Rechargeable batteries use a reversible reaction medium to convert electrical current to a form of chemical energy which can be stored for future use.

<h3>What is a rechargeable battery?</h3>

A rechargeable battery is a type of battery that can be charged many times by passing electric current through the cells in a reversible reaction.

<h3>How does recahargeable battery store energy?</h3>

When electrical energy from an outside source is applied to a secondary cell (reachargeable battery), the negative to positive electron flow that occurs during discharge is reversed, and the cell's charge is restored. This process is called reversible reaction.

Thus, rechargeable batteries use a reversible reaction medium to convert electrical current to a form of chemical energy which can be stored for future use.
