Why does earth’s rotation axis lean toward the sun for only one-half of its orbit?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
8 0

The earth is inclined to the plane of its orbit by 23.5 degrees. Therefore for half the time in its earth on its orbit, the north pole will be inclined towards the sun. During this period, the pole receives six months of continuous sunshine. In the other half of the revolution around the sun, the north pole is tilted away from the sun hence receives darkness for 6 months.

A buffer is made that is .10M propanoic acid (pKa = 4.9) and .05M sodium propanoate. Calculate the pH.
inna [77]
PKa= 4.9 therefore ka= 10^-4.9=  1.259x10^-5

ka= \frac{[H^+][CH3CH2COO^-]}{[CH3CH2COOH]}

[CH3CH2COO^-]
= 0.05
[CH3CH2COOH]= 0.10

Therefore 1.259x10^-5 = \frac{[H^+][0.05]}{[0.1]}
Rearrange the equation to make the concentration of hydrogen the subject.
Therefore [H^+] =  \frac{(1.259*10^-5)(0.1)}{0.05}

Therefore [H^+]= 2.513*10^-5

pH= -log [H^+] = -log(2.513*10^-5)= 4.59.

Rising air in the tropics is called the Intertropical convergence zone and is a region of rising hot air. As it rises, the moisture in the air eventually reaches its saturation point and the moisture falls out as rain. This is why the tropics are know for their very heavy rainfall periods

100 ml of a 0.300 m solution of agno3 reacts with 100 ml of a 0.300 m solution of hcl in a coffee-cup calorimeter and the temper
Olin [163]

Answer:

100 ml of a 0.300 m solution of agno3 reacts with 100 ml of a 0.300 m solution of hcl in a coffee-cup calorimeter and the temperature rises from 21.80 °c to 23.20 °c. Assuming the density and specific heat of the resulting solution is 1.00 g/ml and 4.18 j/g ∙ °c respectfully, what is the ΔH°rxn?

39.013 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

AgNO3(aq) + HCl(aq) --------------> AgCl(s) + HNO3(aq)

We can calculate the amount of heat (Q) released from the solution using the relation:

Q = m.c.ΔT,

Where, Q is the amount of heat released from the solution (Q = ??? J).

m is the mass of the solution (m of the solution = density of the solution x volume of the solution = (1.0 g/mL)(200 mL) = 200 g.

c is the specific heat capacity of the solution (c = 4.18 J/g∙°C).

ΔT is the difference in the T (ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 23.20 °C - 21.80 °C = 1.4 °C).

∴ Q = m.c.ΔT = (200 g)(4.18 J/g∙°C)(1.4 °C) = 1170.4 J.

∵ ΔH°rxn = Qrxn/(no. of moles of AgNO₃).

Molarity (M) is defined as the no. of moles of solute dissolved in a 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of AgNO₃)/(Volume of the solution (L)).

∴ no. of moles of AgNO₃

               = (M)(Volume of the solution (L))

               = (0.3 M)(0.1 L) = 0.03 mol.

∴ ΔH°rxn

           = Qrxn/(no. of moles of AgNO₃)

            = (1170.4 J)/(0.03 mol)

            = 39013.33 J/mol

           = 39.013 kJ/mol.
