The correct answer is - C. Warm water is carried to cooler parts of the ocean.

The Gulf Stream is warm ocean current. It is an ocean current that originates from the Caribbean region, where it is constantly warm throughout the year. Because of that, the water is warm as well, and since the warm water is less dense, it moves on the surface. The movement is toward the higher latitudes, where this current, as a surface movement of the water, is bringing warmer water to the cooler areas, such as the eastern coast of the United States. Not only that warm water is brought to these areas, but the Gulf Stream also brings in warm and moist air masses with it, making the climate much more mild, and increasing the amount of precipitation.

To determine the ammonia concentration in a sample of lake water, three samples are prepared. In sample A, 10.0 mL of lake water
Masteriza [31]

Answer:Sample Absorbance (625 nm)  

A 0.536  

B 0.783  

C 0.045  

Therefore, I will use these data to solve your question. If you have other absorbances values, just follow my steps and plug in different numbers.

First, we see 1 mole of NH3 gives 1 mole product.

In B moles of NH3 = moles of NH3 in A + (5.5 x10^-4 x2.5/1000) = 1.375 x10^6 + mA

( mA = moles of NH3 in A) vol of B = 25 = vol of A

now A = el C = eC ( since l = 1cm)

Because, n net absorbance due to complex blank absorbance must be removed.

Here A(A) = 0.536 - 0.045 = 0.491 , A(B) = 0.783 - 0.045 = 0.738  

(you can plug in different numbers in this step)

A2/A1 = C2/C1 , A(B)/A(A) = (1.375x10^-6 +mA)/(mA) = 0.738/0.491

So, mA = 2.733 x 10^-6 = moles of NH3 in A (Lake water)

Hence [NH3] water ( 2.733 x10^-6 ) x 1000/25 = 1.093 x 10^-4 M

Lake water vol = 10 ml out of 25,

Concentration of ammonia in lake water = 2.733 x10^-6 x 1000/10 = 2.733 x 10^-4 M

Then, A = 0.491 = e x 1 x 1.093 x10^-4

e = 4492 M-1cm-1

2. All metals are good conductors because their electrons can
dsp73

Answer: An insulator would be made out of material unable to conduct electricity due to lack of fluid movement for electrons, such as rubber. Rubber properties not only prevents them from freely moving, but also helps electrons stay tightly bound to each other.

Hope this helps ^_^
