1. The currents in North Pacific gyre rotate more or less clockwise while those of South Pacific rotate counter-clockwise. This is mainly due to the Coriolis effect brought about by the rotation of the earth. Currents above the equator are deflected from west to east while those in the south, east to west.



2. Winds are the main driver of ocean currents because they cause frictional drag on the surface of the oceans in the direction in which the blow. These winds also cause Ekman spirals that are 90 degrees right to the wind direction in the Northern hemisphere and 90 degrees left to the winds in the southern hemisphere.

Artemon [7]

B) 2

You would first balance GO4 by adding a coefficient of 3 in front of DnGO4 in the reactants. Then you’d balance the 3DnGO4 by adding a coefficient of 3 in front of Dn in the products. Finally you’d balance Eg by adding a coefficient of 2 in front of Eg to balance with the Eg2(GO4)3 in the products.

Determine the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.198 g of "KHP" (C8H5O4K) in enough water to make 125 mL of solutio
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

0.007756M KHP; 0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts; 0.03488M NaOH.

Explanation:

Potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, is a salt used as standard to determine concentration of basic solutions as NaOH solutions.

To find molarity of the KHP solution we need to convert mass of KHP to moles and divide this in 125mL = 0.125L:

<em>Moles KHP -Molar mass: 204.22g/mol-:</em>

0.198g * (1mol / 204.22g) = 0.0009695 moles KHP

<em>Molarity:</em>

0.0009695 moles KHP / 0.125L = 0.007756M KHP

NaOH reacts with KHP as follows:

NaOH + KHP → Na⁺ + KP⁻ + H₂O

That means 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of KHP, that means moles of NaOH that reacts are = Moles of KHP added:

0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts

In 27.80mL = 0.02780L the NaOH was contained. Molarity is:

0.0009695 moles NaOH / 0.02780L =

0.03488M NaOH
