How is the polar vortex different from the jet stream?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago
8 0
The jet stream is a band of reliably strong wind that plays a key role in keeping colder air north and warmer air south. But when the vortex weakens, part of the weakened low-pressure system can break off. This breaking-off process is what causes a polar vortex.

Without that strong low-pressure system, the jet stream does not have enough force to maintain its usual path. It becomes wavy and rambling. When high-pressure systems get in its way, a collection of cold air pushes south, along with the rest of the polar vortex system

10) Arsenic is a chemical agent which was used in preserving dead bodies in the past. It is mainly a formaldehyde mixture with coloring agents to give a dead body the look of life. Sylvester was a third mummy that was embalmed with arsenic in the late 1800s and is now on exhibit at Ye Olde Curiosity Shop in Seattle, Washington. His mummified body showed an extremely unusual since the remains weighed approximately 80 lbs when a body is composed of 70-80% water, after dehydration, the weight should be about 20-30% the premortem weight. The solution was also used during Civil War to preserve dead bodies <span>as the dead were being shipped home from the battlefield.

Given that naphthalene is insoluble in water and sublimes easily upon heating, describe two different methods by which you could
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<span>Based on solubilities you can separate naphthalene and NaCl by adding the mixture to a volume of water. NaCl is highly soluble in water, so it will dissolve completely, while the insoluble naphthalen will remain solid. Next your filter the solution, washing the solid with pure water to eliminate all the NaCl from it. The NaCl will remain is solution, and you can obtain it by evaporating the water. The other method to separate naphthalene and NaCl is based on sublimation property of naphthalene: you can permit that naphthalene sublimes freely or use vacuum to accelerate the process. You use a closed vessel to catch all the gas, while the NaCl will remain solid.</span>

(A) 2 C6H6(l) + 15 O2(g) → 12 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l) (B) C2H3O2-(aq) + H3O+(aq) → HC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(l) (C) 4 H+(aq) + 4 Co2+(aq) + O2
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The reaction (E) 2 H₂O₂ (l) → O₂ g) + 2 H₂O (l) has a single species that is both oxidized and reduced.

Explanation:

Given the reaction (E):

2 H₂O₂ (l) → O₂ g) + 2 H₂O (l)

In hydrogen peroxide, oxygen has an oxidation state of -1. We can see that the reaction is balanced.

The products of the reaction are:

O₂ (the oxidation state of the Oxygen is 0)

H₂O (the oxidation state of the Oxygen is -2)

Hence, 1 mol of Oxygen changes its oxidation state from -1 to 0 (oxidation) and 1 mol of Oxygen changes its oxidation state from -1 to -2 (reduction).

The reaction (E) has a single species that is both oxidized and reduced.

If cells in the process of dividing are subjected to colchicine, a drug that interferes with the formation of the spindle appara
Orlov [11]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) anaphase

B) prophase

C) telophase

D) metaphase

E) interphase

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

Colchicine is a drug obtained from the <em>Colchicum autumnale</em> which is a poisonous European flowering plant. The drug is used to treat joint swelling and gout.

Colchicine shows its effect during the cell division cycle especially during the division of nuclear content. When the cell is in metaphase and is preparing for the anaphase, the colchicine inhibits the polymerisation of the microtubules. The inhibition of microtubules inhibits the assembly of the mitotic spindle as a result of this the DNA do not move into new daughter cells.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
