The correct answer is - deflation.

The process of deflation can be caused by the winds. It is an erosive process in which the main role has the wind that is carrying lot of sediment in the shape of very small particles with it.

Through this process, the winds manage to erode large areas, especially in the drier places where the vegetation is very sparsely distributed. By this type of erosion, the winds manage to make lot of hollows that can range significantly in size. The hollows made by the deflation can be anywhere from few cm deep and several meters long, up to several km long and 50-60 meters of depth.

This is the process that is responsible for the creation of most of the oasis in the largest desert in the world, Sahara, some even being lowered enough to be under the sea level.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) has a higher boiling point than bromine (Br2) partly because iodine monochloride is a(n)
tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine (Br_2) is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.

Given the following list of densities, which materials would float in a molten vat of lead provided that they do not themselves
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

b. glass and charcoal

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Density of Pb: 11.4 g/mL
  • Density of Glass: 2.6 g/mL
  • Density of Au: 19.3 g/mL
  • Density of charcoal: 0.57 g/mL
  • Density of platinum: 21.4 g/mL

Step 2: Determine which material will float in molten lead

Density is an intrinsic property of matter. Less dense materials float in more dense materials. The materials whose density is lower than that of lead and will therefore float on it are glass and charcoal.
