Answer:

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift – the idea that Earth's continents move. Despite publishing a large body of compelling fossil and rock evidence for his theory between 1912 and 1929, it was rejected by most other scientists.

You have 2.7 moles of carbon. How many atoms do you have?

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms (N) contained in 2.7moles of carbon, we multiply the number of moles (n) by Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10²³).

That is, N = n × nA

Where;

N = number of atoms

n = number of moles (mol)

nA = Avogadro's numbe

N = 2.7 × 6.02 × 10²³

N = 16.254 × 10²³

N = 1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Hence, there are 1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms in 2.7moles of Carbon.

For the reaction between aqueous solutions of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)2, write

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we are asked to note down the complete molecular equation, complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for the reaction between acetic acid (weak acid) and barium hydroxide (strong base), we proceed as shown below:

- Complete molecular equation:

$2CH_3COOH(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(aq)\rightarrow Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)$

- Complete ionic equation: in this case, since acetic acid is a weak one, it is not ionized, so we do this:

$2CH_3COOH(aq)+Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow Ba^{2+}(aq)+2CH_3COO^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)$

- Net ionic equation: in this case, we cancel out the barium ions as they are the spectators one because they are present at both reactants and products:

$2CH_3COOH(aq)+2OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 2CH_3COO^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)\\\\CH_3COOH(aq)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq)+H_2O(l)$

Best regards!

When warm air is forced upward along a cold front what might happen?

mote1985 [20]

Answer: With the cold front, warm air is rapidly forced upward (like the shavings) in advance of the actual front (the “cutter”), creating towering cumulus clouds, some hard showers and quite possibly a few gusty thunderstorms followed by a push of cooler and drier air in its wake.
