How dose mountains affect the climate of a region ?

Chemistry

Answer:Because of the rapid changes in altitude and temperature along a mountain slope, multiple ecological zones are “stacked” upon one another sometimes ranging from dense tropical jungles to glacial ice within a few kilometres

Answer: Mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. In some areas, mountains block rain, so that one side of a mountain range may be rainy and the other side may be a desert. Much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains.

If 25.3 grams of mercury(II) oxide react to form 23.4 grams of mercury, how many grams of oxygen must simultaneously be formed?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer : The mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

2HgO\rightarrow 2Hg+O_2

According to the law of conservation of mass,

Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side

Total mass of 2HgO = Total mass of 2Hg+O_2

As we are given :

The mass of HgO = 25.3 grams

The mass of Hg = 23.4 grams

So,

2\times 25.3g=2\times 23.4g+\text{Mass of }O_2

50.6g=46.8g+\text{Mass of }O_2

\text{Mass of }O_2=3.8g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen formed must be 3.8 grams.

What is the empirical formula for c12h24o6? what is the empirical formula for c12h24o6? ch2o cho c2h5o c2h4o cho2?
stira [4]

Empirical formula: The formula consist of proportions of the elements which is present in the compound or the simplest whole number ratios of atoms.

Now, molecular formula is equal to the product of n (ratio) and empirical formula.

Molecular formula = n\times empirical formula    (1)

molecular formula =C_{12}H_{24}O_{6} (given)

Since, 6 is the smallest subscript in above molecular formula to get the simpler whole number of atoms. Therefore, divide all the subscripts i.e. number of carbon atoms (12), number of hydrogen atoms (24) and number of oxygen atoms (6) by 6.

empirical formula becomes C_{2}H_{4}O

Thus, according to the formula (1)

C_{12}H_{24}O_{6} = 6\times C_{2}H_{4}O

Hence, empirical formula of given molecular formula is C_{2}H_{4}O

Briefly describe how a potentiometric pHmeter works. (Hint: Describe how the pH meter measures the amount of H+ or OH- ions in a
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Indicators show changes in the pH of a solution

Explanation:

A pH meter is an instrument that measures the hydrogen-ion activity in aqueous solutions, indicating the acidity or alkalinity of the solution expressed as pH .The pH meter measures the difference in electrical potential between a pH electrode and a reference electrode, hence the pH meter is sometimes referred to as a potentiometric pH meter. Potentiometric pH meters measure the voltage between two electrodes and display the result converted into the corresponding pH value. The instrument comprises of a simple electronic amplifier and a pair of electrodes, or alternatively a combination electrode, and some form of display calibrated in pH units. It usually has a glass electrode and a reference electrode, or a combination electrode. The electrodes, or probes, are inserted into the solution to be tested.

Organic indicators are chemical species that change their colour in response to changes in the pH of the solution. This implies that the anionic and protonated forms of the indicator possess different colours. Hence the colour changes in acidic, basic and neutral solutions. The images attached indicate the colour changes in phenolphthalein and methyl orange in acidic and basic media accordingly.

Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. It is often called the
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this case the answer would be

Water is a polar molecule with positive and negative side

Now since these negative and positives are present in the water molecule . In easy terms when a substance reacts with water .the negative part of water ( oxygen ) reacts with the positive part of the substance and the positive part of the water ( hydrogen) reacts with negative part of the substance .if you look at the reason . Water is held up by one of the strongest attraction forces available .since most substances have weaker attraction forces between them ,therefore water can easily overcome them with its forces. Thus giving it the ability to dissolve a variety of substances
