Answer: high pressure because it's stable

Explanation:

Air mass is volume of air which has stable temperature, humidity and pressure horizontally. Over time, each air mass acquires properties of the region by residing over same part of a surface.

Areas of low pressure and high pressure occur where there is warm air and cold air respectively. An air mass usually forms over an area of high pressure. Warm air rises up and cold air takes its place. Warm air has low density and low pressure where as cold air has high density and pressure and therefore, sinks to the bottom. This is a stable condition.  The movement of air mass is responsible for maintenance of temperature conditions on Earth.

Enter the ions formed when (NH4)2S dissolves in water.
lisabon 2012 [21]

The ions formed are NH4(+) and S(2-)

The dissolution reaction of (NH4) 2S in water is as follows:


(NH4) 2S ==> 2 NH4 (+) + S (2-).



Ammonium sulfide is the ammonium salt of hydrogen sulfide. It has the formula (NH4) 2S and belongs to the sulfide family.


It is a relatively unstable compound (crystals decomposing at -18 ° C, but exists and is more stable in aqueous solution.) With a pKa exceeding 15, the hydrosulfide ion cannot be significantly deprotonated by ammonia. Thus, such solutions consist mainly of a mixture of ammonia and hydrosulphide of ammonium, it has a smell, close to that of hydrogen sulfide, and its aqueous solutions can be precisely by emitting H2S.

When the temperature of a reacting mixture increases, the rate of reaction increases. Which statement explains why the rate of r
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

This is one of the factors that affects chemical reactions

Temperature:This is because when the temperature is raised energy in form of heat is supplied to the reacting particles and so the rate of reaction is increased.

If m = 45g and V = 15ml, what is D in g/ml?​
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

3 g/mL

Explanation:

We know that the density of an object can be measured by dividing its mass (g) to its volume (mL).

Formula

D=m/v

Given data:

Mass= 45 g

Volume= 15 mL

Now we will put the values in formula:

D=45 g/ 15 mL= 3 g/mL

Electrons in conductors, like copper wire, are free to roam throughout the metal in the presence of the ions that have released
Scrat [10]

Answer:

  • <u><em>No, I would not consider a metal to be a plasma because plasma is just another state of matter, and the copper wire is in solid state.</em></u>

Explanation:

Metal is not a state of matter. Metals can be solid or liquid (molten) depending on their melting point and the temperature at which they are.

Plasma is a state of matter, similar to gas, but it is reached only at very high temperatures like in the Sun. The particles in plasma state are not neutral atoms or molecules but negatively charged  ions and electrons.

The copper wire is yet a solid, thus it cannot be considered a plasma.

Metals can be in plasma state only if the temperature is too high, like the temperatures in the stars. In fact, the metals in the Sun and other hotter stars are in plasma state.
