What are surface currents? What drives them?

Chemistry
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Surface currents in the ocean are driven by global wind systems that are fueled by energy from the sun. Patterns of surface currents are determined by wind direction, Coriolis forces from the Earth's rotation, and the position of landforms that interact with the currents

Can someone plz help me on question 3 I really need help plz
zavuch27 [327]

1. <em>Describe</em>

Frequency (f) and wavelength (λ) are inversely related.

f ∝ 1/λ

As one goes up, the other goes down and vice versa.

2. <em>Infer </em>

The frequency of infrared light is less than that of red light, so infra could mean something like less than or below or beneath.

Ultrahigh frequencies are extremely high compared with those of visible light. Ultrasound has frequencies that are far beyond what we can hear. An ultracentrifuge goes at extremely high speed, and an ultramicroscope can “see” tiny structures. Ultra could probably mean something like extremely or far beyond.

3. <em>Analyze </em>

Energy is directly proportional to frequency (E ∝ f).

Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength (f ∝ 1/λ).

Energy is inversely proportional to wavelength (E ∝ 1/λ).

Can someone help me answer this please
victus00 [196]

Answer:

A) 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the solution of AgCl

AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

Step 2: Make an ICE Chart

        AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

I                           0             0

C                        +S            +S

E                          S              S

If we replace the solubility (S) in the Ksp expression, we get,

Ksp = [Ag⁺] [Cl⁻] = S × S = S²

S = √Ksp = √1.8 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L
