The invisible line on Earth is the equator
When ice melts, the physicals state changes from solid to liquid. The energy or the heat required (q) required to change a unit mass (m) of a substance from solid to liquid is known as the enthalpy or heat of fusion (ΔHf). The variables; q, m and ΔHf are related as:
q = m * ΔHf
the mass of ice m = 65 g
the heat of fusion of water at 0C = ΔHf = 334 J/g
Therefore: q = 65 g * 334 J/g = 21710 J
Now:
4.184 J = 1 cal
which implies that: 21710 J = 1 cal * 21710 J/4.184 J = 5188.8 cal
Hence the heat required is 5188.8 cal or 5.2 Kcal (approx)
The effect that it makes is it turns it into acidic
The correct answer is - False.
The soils are part of most of the major cycles that take place on the Earth, mainly because they are in touch with the other spheres. The carbon dioxide, as well as the nitrogen and the sulfur cycles too, end up in the soil in more cases than not during their cycles. While some are formed in it and than released, like the sulfur, the carbon mostly gets in it though the roots of the plants, as well as the decomposing organisms, and the nitrogen ends up in the soil with the water.
The soil is one of the most important pieces in the cycles of most of the gases on Earth, and without it, some will not even be possible.
