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.

A medium that works by showing two reaction types is called a differential medium

<h3>Differential media</h3>

Differentia media are one of the numerous culture media used in culturing microorganisms. They are also known as indicator media.

They are called differential media because they are able to make a distinction between two microorganisms growing on them based on the biochemical characteristics of some organisms in the presence of certain indicators or nutrients.

If you add 14.22ml of 2.97m hcl (42.2mmol) to an antacid, then neutralize the excess acid with 5.00ml of 0.1055 m naoh (0.528mmo
Vinvika [58]

Given data:

Volume of HCl = 14.22 ml

Molarity of HCl = 2.97 M

mmoles of HCl = 14.22 * 2.97 = 42.2 mmoles

Volume of NaOH = 5.00 ml

Molarity of NaOH = 0.1055 M

mmoles of NaOH = 5.00 *.1055 = 0.5275 mmoles

Since HCl and NaOH combine in a 1:1 ratio

# moles of NaOH = # moles of excess HCl that is neutralized = 0.5275 moles

Now, the total moles of HCl taken = # mmoles HCl neutralized by antacid + # mmoles of excess HCl

42.2 = mmoles HCl neutralized by antacid + 0.5275

Therefore,

mmoles of HCl neutralized by antacid = 42.2 - 0.5275 = 41.6725 mmoles = 41.7 mmoles

In a rocket motor fueled with butane, how many kg of liquid oxygen should be provided with each kilogram of butane to provide fo
Travka [436]
<u>Answer</u>

So this is the reaction that happens. 
<span>C4H10 + O2 = CO2 + H2O </span>

<span>Balanced, it is </span>
<span>2C4H10 + 8O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O </span>

<span>Given 1 kg or 1000 g of butane, use stoichiometry aka factor labeling aka conversions and mole ratios to get to grams of oxygen. </span>

<span>I'll do an example. Let's form water. Hydrogen is diatomic too. </span>
<span>2H2 + O2 = 2H2O </span>

<span>Given 1000 g of Hydrogen, I need to know how many grams of oxygen to use. To convert grams to moles,
I know that 1 mol of H2 equals 2.02 g. Then, for every mole of O2, there are 2 moles of H2. Then converting moles of O2 to grams, I know that one mole of it equals 32 grams. </span>
<span>[1000 g H2] x [1 mol H2/2.02 g H2] x [1 mol O2/2 mol H2] x [32 g O2/1 mol O2] </span>

<span>My answer would be  7.9 kg </span>
