The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

A nitric acid solution containing 71.0% HNO₃ (by mass) has a density of 1.42g/mL. How many moles of HNO₃ are present in 1.98L of this solution?

a. 62.8 mol

b. 31.7 mol

c. 22.3 mol

d. 3.16 x 10⁻² mol

e. none of these

Answer: b. 31.7 mol

Explanation: The solution has density of 1.42g/mL. So, in 1980 mL of solution:

d=\frac{m}{V}

m = d.V

m = 1.42(1980)

m = 2811.6 g

There are 2811.6 grams of solute.

Nitric acid in this solution is 71% by mass, which means

m = 2811.6(0.71)

m = 1996.236 g

In this solution, mass of nitric acid is 1996.236 grams.

Molar mass of HNO₃ is M = 63.01g/mol.

Then:

n=\frac{m}{M}

n=\frac{1996.236}{63.01}

n = 31.68 moles

In 1.98L of a nitric acid solution, there are 31.7 moles of HNO₃.

Predict, using Boyle’s Law, what will happen to a balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 kPa (normal atmospheric
kaheart [24]

Explanation:

Balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 k Pa will get reduced in size that is the volume of the balloon will get reduced. This is because pressure and volume of the gas are inversely related to each other.

According to Boyle's law: The pressure of the gas  is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas at constant temperature(in Kelvins).

pressure\propto \frac{1}{volume} (At constant temperature)

The pressure beneath the sea is 202 kPa and the atmospheric pressure  is 101.3 kPa . This increase in pressure will result in decrease in volume occupied by the gas inside the balloon with decrease in size of a balloon. Hence, the size of the balloon will get reduced at 202 kPa (under sea).

If earth did not rotate what would happen to the global winds and why?

If earth didn't rotate the global winds would stay on the same speed of rate because the wind isn't moving without rotation in the earths axis.

S_A_V [24]
For the question given above, option 2 which is H-Cl pair of atoms has the most polar bond among the four of them. 

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom’s strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. <span>Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.</span>
