What is the likely impact of water's high specific heat on life on Earth?

Chemistry
1 answer:
valkas [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The high specific heat capacity of water means that it takes much more energy to raise the temperatures of water by one (1) degree than land. This means that on a hot sunny day, land temperatures would increase dramatically while ocean temperatures would only rise slightly. Conversely,  at night, the land cools rapidly while oceans cool slowly hence the temperatures drop slightly.

Which of the following statements correctly explains why we experience seasons?
Basile [38]
Answer: I believe C is your best answer

Explanation: The earth revolves around the sun in an elongated circle. Every year is one full “circle.” Due to the earth also having a tilt on its axis, one “side” of the earth is usually closer to the sun. So In the first quarter of the earth’s travel around the sun, it’ll be winter, then the next quarter, spring, followed by Summer halfway through and then Autumn/fall. Such can be compared to how the seasons each usually fill in about a quarter of your calendar. That was explained a bit confusing but I hope I helped, good luck!

identify the correct practices when setting up the condenser for a reflux system. select one or more:
erastovalidia [21]

The correct practices when setting up the condenser for a reflux system are option(c)and (d)i.e, to Grease the joint between the flask and the condenser and Align the flask so that the condenser is vertical.

A condenser's purpose is to transfer heat from a working fluid—in a steam power plant, for instance, water—to a secondary fluid or the ambient air. The effective heat transfer that takes place during phase shifts, in this case during the condensation of vapor into a liquid, is what powers the condenser.

A condenser is a heat exchanger used in heat transfer systems to cool a gaseous substance so that it condenses into a liquid condition. By doing this, the substance releases its latent heat and transfers it to the environment. On the back of a refrigerator, the condenser is located and is probably pretty dusty. The refrigerant cools down within and condenses, changing back from a gas to a liquid.

Find the mass of 1.59 mol of NH3​
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

27.03 grams

Explanation:

moles (n) = mass(m)/Molar mass(M)

moles = 1.59

mass = ?

N = 14, H = 1

M(NH3) = 14 + 3(1) = 17

Substitute the values into the equation:

nM = m

∴ m = 1.59 × 17 = 27.03
