Global wind patterns are mainly determined by unequal heating of the earth's surface, changes in air pressure, and earth's rotation. Change in air pressure: Air mainly circulates due to change in air pressure. It moves from a region of high air pressure to the region of lower air pressure.
Answer:
the mass number
Explanation:
Isotopes are numerous forms of one single element. In simple terms, atomic weights are different for the isotopes. Isotopes refer to the atoms that have the same number of protons but different neutron numbers. The physical properties of the isotopes vary because these properties also based on mass. These variations can be used to distinguish isotopes of an element from each other by applying methods such as fractional distillation and diffusion.
Answer:
a. glucose in water( solution)
b. smoke in air (colloids)
c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)
d. milk( colloids)
Explanation:
A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).
Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.
In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.
For example:
--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.
--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.
Answer:
<em>Valency is the combining power of an element. Elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same valency. The valency of an element is related to how many electrons are in the outer shell. The noble gases have the valency 0 as they do not usually combine with other elements.</em>
