Where two air masses and do not mix

Chemistry

When two air masses meet together, the boundary between the two is called a weather front. At a front, the two air masses have different densities, based on temperature, and do not easily mix. One air mass is lifted above the other, creating a low pressure zone.

SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

NH_4 will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-     ( × 4)

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O   ( × 6)

<u>Overall reaction:</u> 4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O

We are given:

Molecules of NH_4 = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of NH_4 reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of NH_4 will react with = \frac{6}{4}\times 28=42 molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

Question Megan made a model of the respiratory system using a water bottle and balloons. When she pulled down on the balloon str
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The lung

Explanation:

The model of the respiratory system made by Megan consists of two balloons. The first balloon stretched across the bottom of the bottle represents the diaphragm which contracts and relaxes to allow air in and out of the lungs. The balloon inside the bottle represents one lung.

Breathing in causes the balloon inside the bottle to be filled with air. This is preceded by the expansion of the diaphragm which makes the lungs to be filled with air. Breathing out causes a contraction of the diaphragm thus making the lungs to let out air.

Select all the correct statements, there is more than one.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Experiments to determine mechanisms involve looking at indirect evidence to help support or disprove a proposed mechanism.

Most intermediates are not typically isolated to determine reaction mechanisms.

Carbocations are very reactive and are typically not isolated for analysis.

Scientists can prove that a specific mechanism exists.

Evidence of intermediates sometimes can be seen using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Explanation:

The study of reaction mechanism and chemical kinetics often form the main thrust of study in organic, inorganic and physical chemistry.

We often want to know the actual processes involved in the conversion of one specie to another. Unfortunately, this information may have to be obtained indirectly by certain chemical reactions or by the use of new instrumental methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Many organic reactions have carbocation intermediates. These carbocations are relatively short-lived and are transient intermediates which are rarely isolated unless they are isolated in a molecular cage using a macromolecule or in superacids.

By intensive study, scientists can proof or disprove the authenticity of any proposed mechanism.

We must know that a transition state has partial bonds. It is often an extremely short-lived specie which cannot be isolated.
