What causes water to become denser when it is carried to the poles by surface currents? increased temperature and increased sali

Anarel [89]

Answer:

The answer is decreased temperature and increased salinity

Explanation:

It is what is known as the thermohaline circulation

The thermohaline circulation moves the water slowly. This water moves mainly due to differences in its relative density. Much denser water sinks over water that is less dense. Two factors impact the density of seawater: temperature and salinity.

Cold water is denser than hot water:

-Water cools when it loses heat, it occurs at high latitudes.

-Water is heated when it receives energy from the sun, at low latitudes.

Saltier water is much denser than water that has less salt:

-Sea water becomes salty if the evaporation rate increases.

-Sea water becomes less salty if there is a water inlet over the sea.

Consider the titration of sulfuric acid with sodium hydroxide. What volume (mL) of a 2.658M NaOH solution is required to fully t

KatRina [158]

The volume of base required to completely neutralize the acid is 3.2 mL of NaOH.

The equation of the reaction is;

2NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) -----> Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l)

From the question;

Concentration of acid CA = 0.426M

Concentration of base CB = 2.658M

Volume of acid VA = 10.00mL

Volume of base VB = ?

Number of moles of acid NA = 1

Number of moles of base NB = 2

Using the relation;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CAVANB = CBVBNA

VB = CAVANB/CBNA

VB = 0.426M × 10.00mL × 2/ 2.658M × 1

VB = 3.2 mL

When a reaction has reached equilibrium... A. Q = K B. The rate of the forward reaction and the rate of the reverse reaction are

grin007 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Equilibrium is a state when rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. The concentration of reactants and products becomes constant at this state.

The ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficients is termed as Equilibrium constant. It is denoted by $K_{eq}$ .

aA + bB $\rightleftharpoons$ cC

$K_{eq}=\frac{[C]^c}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

How many grams of solid NaOH are required to prepare a 400ml of a 5N solution? show your work!

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g

Explanation:

Equivalent weight is calculated by dividing the molecular weight by n factor. The equation used is:

$\text{Equivalent weight}=\frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{n}$

where,

n = acidity for bases = 1 (For NaOH)

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Equivalent weight}=\frac{40g/mol}{1eq/mol}=40g/eq$

Normality is defined as the umber of gram equivalents dissolved per liter of the solution.

Mathematically,

$\text{Normality of solution}=\frac{\text{Number of gram equivalents} \times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Or,

$\text{Normality of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass}\times 1000}{\text{Equivalent mass}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ ......(1)

We are given:

Given mass of NaOH = ?

Equivalent mass of NaOH = 40 g/eq

Volume of solution = 400 mL

Normality of solution = 5 eq/L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$5eq/L=\frac{\text{Mass of NaOH}\times 1000}{40g/eq\times 400mL}\\\\\text{Mass of NaOH}=80g$

Hence, the mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g

Why krypton and noble gas are not used in airships using the periodic table?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Since the noble gases are unreactive or inert, they are safe to use. Helium is used to fill balloons and airships, because it is much lighter that air and it will not catch fire. Neon is used in advertising signs. It will give red glow, but the color can be changes by mixing it with other gases.
