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

How many ug of nickel (Ni) are required to make 25.00 nanoliters of a 1.25 mol/L solution? Be sure to report your answer to the
devlian [24]

volume of Ni = 25 nL = 25 x 10⁻⁹ L

mol Ni = 25 x 10⁻⁹ L x 1.25 mol/L = 3.125 x 10⁻⁸

mass = mol x Ar Ni

mass = 3.125 x 10⁻⁸ x 59 g/mol

mass = 1.84 x 10⁻⁶ g = 1.84 μg

Calcium and bromine have formed a bond. Leading up to this, calcium gave up electrons. It was a(n)
scZoUnD [109]
Leading up to this, calcium gave up 2 valence electrons and thus was denoted as a cation. These 2 electrons were transferred to bromine, which received an overall negative charge because of the addition of 2 valence electrons in its valence shell, and thus formed a negatively charged ion, an anion.

Both formed an ionic bond, due to the electrostatic charge of attraction between the 2 oppositely charged ions. If many ions of Ca and Br are present and numerous ionic bonds have formed it will undergo an arrangement which is that of an ionic lattice, type of structure.

which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?
NeTakaya

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

(a)   at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(b)  at low temperatures, low-energy collisions happen more frequently.

(c)   at higher temperatures, less-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(d)  at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently

Explanation:

When we increase the temperature of a chemical reaction then molecules of the reactant species tend to gain kinetic energy. As a result, they come into motion which leads to more number of collisions within the molecules.

Therefore, chemical reaction will take less amount of time in order to reach its end point. This means that there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently, best explains why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction.

How many g of silver chloride will be produced by reacting 10g of silver nitrate with sodium chloride?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

16.8 g of AgCl are produced

Explanation:

The reactants are: NaCl and AgNO₃

The products are:  AgCl, NaNO₃

Balanced equation:  NaCl(aq) +  AgNO₃(aq)  → NaNO₃(aq) + AgCl(s) ↓

We convert the mass of AgNO₃ to moles → 10 g / 85g/mol = 0.117 moles

Ratio is 1:1, therefore 0.117 moles of nitrate will produce 0.117 moles of AgCl.

According to stoichiormetry.

We convert the moles to mass → 0.117 mol . 143.3g /1mol = 16.8 g
