How does energy from the Sun drive the cycling of matter?

1 answer:

Schach [20]2 years ago

4 0

Answer:

solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and soil. As liquid water evaporates or transpires, it forms water vapor and clouds, where water droplets eventually gain enough mass to fall back to Earth as precipitation.

Fill in the chart to identify how scientists represent matter and chemical changes in matter.

ivann1987 [24]

A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulae, wherein the reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities on the right-hand side

A chemical symbol is a notation of one or two letters representing a chemical element

A chemical formula identifies each constituent element by its chemical symbol and indicates the proportionate number of atoms of each element.

In what way would readings from a digital thermometer be preferable to those from a liquid-based thermometer?

I think its because its more accurate because it shows you the numbers rather than you reading the approximate temperature on a liquid thermometer

What is the resultant pressure if 1.7 mol of ideal gas at 273 K and 2.79 atm in a closed container of constant volume is heated

dedylja [7]

Answer: The resultant pressure is 3.22 atm

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

$P\propto T$ (At constant volume and number of moles)

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 2.79 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = 273K

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = 315 K

$\frac{2.79}{273}=\frac{P_2}{315}$

$P_2=3.22atm$

Thus the resultant pressure is 3.22 atm

Some people must eat a low-sodium diet with no more than 2,000 mg of sodium per day. By eating 1 cracker, 1 pretzel, and 1 cooki

Leni [432]

Answer:

The amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.

Explanation:

Let's assume amount of sodium is x mg per cracker, y mg per pretzel and z mg per cookie.

So, the following three equations can be written as per given information:

x+y+z = 149 ........(1)

8y+8z = 936 ........(2)

6x+7y = 535 .........(3)

From equation- (2), y+z = $\frac{936}{8}$ = 117

By substituting the value of (y+z) in equation- (1) we get,

x = 149-(y+z) = 149-117 = 32

By substituting the value of x into equation- (3) we get,

y = $\frac{535-(6\times 32)}{7}$ = 49

By substituting the value of y into equation- (2) we get,

z = (117-49) = 68

So, the amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.
