Ocean currents - Surface ocean currents can occur on local and global scales and are typically wind-driven, resulting in both ho

rizontal and vertical water movement. Deep ocean currents are density-driven and differ from surface currents in scale, speed, and energy. Water density is affected by the temperature, salinity (saltiness), and depth of the water. The colder and saltier the ocean water, the denser it is. The greater the density differences between different layers in the water column, the greater the mixing and circulation. Density differences in ocean water contribute to a global-scale circulation system, also called the global conveyor belt. The global conveyor belt includes both surface and deep ocean currents that circulate the globe in a 1,000-year cycle. The ocean’s global conveyor belt plays a key role in distributing heat energy and regulating weather and climate. The driving force behind this circulation system is

why is it much easier for group 14 elements to become stable by sharing instead of transferring electrons9
Effectus [21]

Because they are closer to the farther end of the periodic table. Since they are closer to the farther end they don't want to give away their electrons because it would be easier for them to just steal them from other atoms.

Which equation is used to help form the combined gas law?<br> eP, V, P, V, т.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The combined gas law is formulated from PV/T =K.

Explanation:

The combined gas law comprises of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay lusaac's law. This laws were not discovered but simply put together considering other cases of ideal gas law. It states that if the amount of gas is left unchanged, the ratio between the pressure, volume, and temperature is constant.

Why does burned toast taste so bad? Is it a chemical or physical change?
german

Because things that are burnt have been changed into something else like moldy bread thats cooked.

It is chemical change because you cannot unburn something.
