Larges of flowing ice called glaciers are typically found near Earth's poles and other cold regions.
Answer:
XCH₄ = 0.461
XCO₂ = 0.539
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Partial pressure of methane (pCH₄): 431 mmHg
- Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO₂): 504 mmHg
Step 2: Calculate the total pressure in the container
We will sum both partial pressures.
P = pCH₄ + pCO₂
P = 431 mmHg + 504 mmHg = 935 mmHg
Step 3: Calculate the mole fraction of each gas
We will use the following expression.
Xi = pi / P
XCH₄ = pCH₄/P = 431 mmHg/935 mmHg = 0.461
XCO₂ = pCO₂/P = 504 mmHg/935 mmHg = 0.539
Genetic engineering also called transformation
The radioactive decay of unstable isotopes continually generates new energy within Earth's crust and mantle, providing the primary source of the heat that drives mantle convection. Plate tectonics can be viewed as the surface expression of mantle convection.
