Answer:
Frost Wedging - Hot and dry
Clay Formation - Cold and Wet
Dissolving - Cold, and dry
Explanation:
The frost wedging happen when the climatic condition is hot and dry. The dry weather compensates the heat and the rock wedging happens quickly. For clay formation the weather has to be cold and wet. The cold weather will make the sand indulge with rock particles resulting in the clay formation.
Answer:
The answers are in the explanation.
Explanation:
The energy required to convert 10g of ice at -10°C to water vapor at 120°C is obtained per stages as follows:
Increasing temperature of ice from -10°C - 0°C:
Q = S*ΔT*m
Q is energy, S specific heat of ice = 2.06J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 0°C - -10°C = 10°C and m is mass of ice = 10g
Q = 2.06J/g°C*10°C*10g
Q = 206J
Change from solid to liquid:
The heat of fusion of water is 333.55J/g. That means 1g of ice requires 333.55J to be converted in liquid. 10g requires:
Q = 333.55J/g*10g
Q = 3335.5J
Increasing temperature of liquid water from 0°C - 100°C:
Q = S*ΔT*m
Q is energy, S specific heat of ice = 4.18J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 100°C - 0°C = 100°C and m is mass of water = 10g
Q = 4.18J/g°C*100°C*10g
Q = 4180J
Change from liquid to gas:
The heat of vaporization of water is 2260J/g. That means 1g of liquid water requires 2260J to be converted in gas. 10g requires:
Q = 2260J/g*10g
Q = 22600J
Increasing temperature of gas water from 100°C - 120°C:
Q = S*ΔT*m
Q is energy, S specific heat of gaseous water = 1.87J/g°C, ΔT is change in temperature = 20°C and m is mass of water = 10g
Q = 1.87J/g°C*20°C*10g
Q = 374J
Total Energy:
206J + 3335.5 J + 4180J + 22600J + 374J =
30695.5J =
30.7kJ
