What is Earth's Axis and why is it important when we talk about the seasons?

Chemistry

Answer:

Explanation:

Earth's axis is an imaginary pole going right through the center of Earth from "top" to "bottom." Earth spins around this pole, making one complete turn each day. That is why we have day and night, and why every part of Earth's surface gets some of each. Earth has seasons because its axis doesn't stand up straight.

Earth's axis is not perpendicular. It has an axial tilt or obliquity. Axial tilt is the angle between the planet's rotational axis and its orbital axis. A planet's orbital axis is perpendicular to the ecliptic or orbital plane, the thin disk surrounding the sun and extending to the edge of the solar system.

The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected.

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

Earths axis is tilted and also depends on the tilt according to the seasons. Earths axis is an imaginary line that isn’t visible, as seasons change you see changes in climate like summers are very hot and winters are cold, it’s all related to earths axis as in one part of the world is day while the other night some parts maybe evening (depends on the time), some parts winter some summer- sorry if I made it complicated but hope this gives u an idea, the other guy deserves brainliest tho

Which rule for assigning oxidation numbers IS correct?

Answer:

B.) Oxygen is usually -2

Explanation:

Hydrogen is usually +1.

A pure group 1 element is not always +1.

A monoatomic ion can be a range of numbers. However, it must be a charge other than 0.

To investigate the reactivity of metals a student uses four metals. Each time they added 1 g of the metal to 25 cm³ of sulfuric
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Volume of the sulfuric acid (25cm³), same mass of each metal (1g)

Explanation:

In an experiment, the CONTROL VARIABLE also known as constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in an experiment. This is done in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment.

In this case, students are trying to investigate the reactivity of four different metals. They added 1 g of each metal to 25cm³ of sulfuric acid and recorded the temperature change. Based on the explanation of control variable above, the VOLUME OF SULFURIC ACID (25cm³) and the MASS OF EACH METAL (1g) are the CONTROL VARIABLES because they are the same or unchanged in this experiment.
