Where would you expect snow or rain to fall on a mountain?
2 answers:
Answer: The correct answer is windward sides.
Explanation:
Sides of mountain:
- Windward side: Area or side where high rainfall occurs. Wind prevailing loose their moisture on this side which leads to high rainfall on this side.
- Leeward side : Area or side where low rainfall occurs.
Rain shadow is the dry area on the leeward sides of the mountainous area. As windward side blocks the moisture which prevents the rainfall on the Leeward sides.This effect is known as Rain shadow effect.

Answer:
Value of equilibrium constant is 0.0888
Explanation:
Both and
are gaseous. Hence equilibrium constant depends upon partial pressures of
and
.
Initially no and
were present.
Hence mole fraction of and
at equilibrium can be calculated from coefficient of
and
in balanced equation.
Mole fraction of = (number of moles of
)/(total number of moles of
and
) =
Mole fraction of = (number of moles of
)/(total number of moles of
and
) =
Let's assume both and
behaves ideally.
Therefore partial pressure of ,
and P_{CO_{2}}= x_{CO_{2}}.P_{total}
Where x represents mole fraction
So,
So,
