Water is polar meaning that it has prominent areas of negative and positive charge. Among water molecules there is a weak force called hydrogen bonding which causes the molecules to "stick" to one another. This sticking to itself is called cohesion, and it causes water to ball up into droplets. This same force also causes water to stick to other kinds of molecules. This is called adhesion, and it is what causes water to ride up on the side of a water container slightly.
Answer:
1. 2.04 W/m²
2. 1.63°C
Explanation:
The radiative force that the Earth receives comes from the Sun. When the Sun rays come to the surface, some of them are absorbed and then it is reflected in the space. The greenhouse gases (like CO2) blocks some of these rays, and then the surface stays warm. The excessive amount of these gases makes the surface warmer, which unbalance the climate on Earth.
1. The variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated based on the concentration of the CO2 by the equation:
ΔF = 5.35*ln(C/C0)
Where C is the final concentration, and C0 is the initial concentration.
ΔF = 5.35*ln(410/280)
ΔF = 2.04 W/m²
2. The temperature change in the Earth's surface caused by the variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated by:
ΔT = 0.8*ΔF
ΔT = 0.8*2.04
ΔT = 1.63 K = 1.63°C
Answer:
The protons inside an atom's nucleus help bind the nucleus together. They also attract the negatively charged electrons, and keep them in orbit around the nucleus. The number of protons in an atom's nucleus determines which chemical element it is.
Answer:
0.158 moles
Explanation:
We are given;
9.50 x 10^22 molecules of CO
We are required to determine the number of moles;
We need to know;
1 mole of a compound = 6.022 × 10^23 molecules
Therefore;
9.50 x 10^22 molecules of CO will be equivalent to;
= 9.50 x 10^22 molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mole
= 0.158 moles
Therefore, the number of moles are 0.158 moles
