What causes global convention currents

Chemistry
1 answer:
shepuryov [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Land absorbs heat energy and releases heat energy quickly. Water absorbs heat energy and releases heat energy slowly. Global convection currents are set up in the atmosphere because of the unequal heating of Earth's surfaces.

An analytical chemist has determined by measurements that there are 8.5 moles of magnesium in a sample of talc. How many moles o
MrRissso [65]

There are 5.66 moles of hydrogen in the sample of talc(hydrated magnesium silicate).

Given,

Talc formula is  Mg_{3} Si_4O_{10} (OH)_2

moles of magnesium = 8.5 moles

The stoichiometry of magnesium and hydrogen is 3 : 2,

So 3 moles of magnesium is equivalent to 2 moles of hydrogen.

Then 8.5 moles of magnesium is equivalent to \frac{2}{3} *8.5=5.6666 moles

<h3>Talc </h3>

Talc(hydrated magnesium silicate), often known as talcum, is a type of clay mineral made up of hydrated magnesium silicate, having the formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. Baby powder is made of powdered talc, frequently mixed with corn starch. This mineral serves as a lubricant and thickening agent. It serves as a component in paint, pottery, and roofing materials. It serves as a key component in many cosmetics. It can be found as foliated to fibrous aggregates and in a remarkably uncommon crystal form. It is foliated with a two-dimensional platy form, has a flawless basal cleavage, and an irregular flat fracture.

Talc(hydrated magnesium silicate), the softest mineral, is assigned a value of 1 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which is based on scratch hardness comparisons.

The atmosphere surrounding Earth helps to maintain the various climates found around the world and keeps Earth from becoming ext
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The atmosphere traps heat energy from the Sun and energy radiated from Earth's surface helping to maintain Earth's climate

Explanation:

Earth's atmosphere keeps much of the Sun's energy from escaping into space. This process, called the greenhouse effect, keeps the planet warm enough for life to exist. The atmosphere allows about half of the Sun's heat energy (50%) to reach Earth's surface.

Absolute zero is what temperature on the fahrenheit scale?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

  • Absolute zero is - 459.67 °F

Explanation:

<u>1) Convert absolute zero to celsius:</u>

  • 0 K = - 273.15°C ( this is per definition of the scale)

<u>2) Convert - 273.15°C to Fahrenheit:</u>

  • T (°F) = T (°C) × 1.8 + 32 (this is the conversion equation=

  • T (°F) = - 273.15 × 1.8 + 32 = - 459.67 °F ← answer

Which example indicates that a chemical change has occurred? *
andrezito [222]

Answer:

A. When two aqueous solutions are mixed, a precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

The precipitate (a solid substance that falls from the liquid) is the result of a chemical reaction taking place between the liquids.

The other three answer choices are indicative of physical changes (temperature change, phase change, color change).
