What is the change in air pressure over a given distance called? wind speed air pressure force factor air pressure gradient​
lubasha [3.4K]

The change in pressure over a given distance is defined as a pressure gradient. The strength of this pressure gradient determines how fast the wind moves from higher pressure toward lower pressure. A stronger pressure gradient will cause stronger winds, as shown in Figure 2. >> Balanced in the vertical by the force of gravity

What are the observable properties of salt and rocks, and explain how you used empirical evidence to explain that mixtures of so
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Appearance. Pure rock salt is colorless. However, when found underground it is generally not completely pure, so may have yellow, red, gray or brown hues. It is either transparent or translucent and when you shine a light on it, its luster is vitreous, meaning it appears shiny and glassy.

The element in Group 14 Period 4 has how many neutrons and is it a metal, nonmetal, metalloid or noble gas.
monitta

Number of neutrons=41, and it is metalloid

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Group 14⇒valence electron = 4(ns²np²)

Period 4⇒n=4

So electron configuration of the element :

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p² = 32 electron=atomic number

The element with atomic number 32, which is in period 4 and group 14 is Ge-Germanium

There are seven elements that can be classified as metalloids, namely boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), and polonium (Po).

While the mass number: 73

So the number of neutrons = mass number-atomic number

\tt 73-32=41

Acetylene burns in air according to the following equation: C2H2(g) + 5 2 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + H2O(g) ΔH o rxn = −1255.8 kJ Given
professor190 [17]

Answer:  -227 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

C_2H_2(g)+\frac{5}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+H_2O(g)

The expression for enthalpy change is,

\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]

\Delta H=[(n_{CO_2}\times \Delta H_{CO_2})+ n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_{H_2O})]-[(n_{C_2H_2}\times \Delta H_{C_2H_2})+(n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_{O_2})]

where,

n = number of moles

\Delta H_{O_2}=0 (as heat of formation of substances in their standard state is zero

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

-1255.8=[(2\times -393.5)+(1\times -241.8)]-[(1\times \Delta H_{C_2H_2})+(\frac{5}{2}\times 0)]

-1255.8=[(-787)+(-241.8)]-[(1\times \Delta H_{C_2H_2})+(0)]

\Delta H_{C_2H_2}=-227kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy change for C_2H_2 is -227 kJ.
