Answer:

warm, dry downslope wind affecting Southern California - Santa Ana wind

a seasonally changing wind- monsoon

wind blowing from a valley up a mountain slope - valley breeze

generated by cold thunderstorm downdrafts - haboob

Explanation:

The Santa Ana wind occurs in early autumn. They bring hot and dry weather to areas around the South-West coast. They move at high speeds, affecting most parts of Southern California.

Monsoon is a seasonal wind that blows across Southern Asia. It usually blows in summer. It is a a seasonally changing wind.

Valley breeze is an example of convection current in nature. It is produced by rapid warming of the valley floor leading to the expansion of air making it to flow up the slopes. At night, radiation from the surface cools the slopes. This leads to the rise of cooler and denser air which drains into the valley.

Haboob is generated by cold thunderstorm downdrafts. It is associated with large sandstorms and dust storms.

Why is air considered a mixture not a compound?
blondinia [14]
<span>The best reason I can think of for why we believe that air is a mixture is that freezing air slowly yields different liquids at different temperatures. Liquid nitrogen has a different boiling point than liquid oxygen. They also freeze at different temperatures. If air were only 1 compound, then air in its entirety would have a single boiling point and a single freezing point. </span>

A 118-ml flask is evacuated and found to have a mass of 97.129 g. when the flask is filled with 768 torr of helium gas at 35 ?c,
Inessa05 [86]
The full question asks to decide whether the gas was a specific gas. That part is missing in your question. You need to decide whether the gas in the flask is pure helium.

To decide it you can find the molar mass of the gas in the flask, using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, and then compare with the molar mass of the He.

From pV = nRT you can find n, after that using the mass of gass in the flask you use MM = mass/moles.

1) From pV = nRT, n = pV / RT

Data:
V = 118 ml = 0.118 liter
R = 0.082 atm*liter/mol*K
p = 768 torr * 1 atm / 760 torr = 1.0105 atm
T = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15 K

n = 1.015 atm * 0.118 liter / [ 0.082 atm*liter/K*mol  * 308.15K] =0.00472 mol

mass of gas = mass of the fask with the gas - mass of the flasl evacuated = 97.171 g - 97.129 g = 0.042

=> MM =  mass/n = 0.042 / 0.00472 = 8.90 g/mol

Now from a periodic table or a table you get that the molar mass of He is 4g/mol

So the numbers say that this gas is not pure helium , because its molar mass is more than double of the molar mass of helium gas.

How will you test for the gas which is liberated when hcl reacts with an active metal ?
DENIUS [597]
When HCl reacts with a metal, hydrogen gas will be evolved. To test this gas, insert a burning splinter into the outlet of gas, the flame will be extinguished with a pop sound. This will confirm the gas is hydrogen.

How does the plate boundary along the west coast of the United States change over time?
Tanzania [10]

The North American plate is moving towards the west-southwest at about 2.3 centimeters every year mediated by the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the spreading center, which gave rise to the Atlantic Ocean. The small Juan De Fuca plate, moving east-northeast at 4 centimeters every year, was once a component of much greater oceanic plates known as the Farallon plate.  

The Farallon plate used to comprise what is now the Cocos plate of Mexico and Central America, and the Juan de Fuca plate in the region from N. Vancouver Island to the Cape Mendicino California, and a big sea floor tract in between. However, the middle portion of the Old Farallon plate disappeared underneath North America, it was subducted underneath California leaving the San Andreas fault system behind as the contact between the Pacific plates and North America.  

The Juan De Fuca plate is still actively subducting underneath North America. Its movement is not smooth, however, rather sticky. The buildup of strain takes place until the fault dissociates and a few meters of Juan De Fuca get slid underneath North America in a big earthquake.
