Answer:

Explanation:

Prevailing winds bring air from one type of climate to another. For example, warm winds that travel over water tend to collect moisture as they travel; the water vapor in the air will condense as it moves into colder climates, which is why temperate coastal areas often receive heavy rainfall

Seems to be an ideal gas law question. The relevant equation is:

PV = nRT

where P is the pressure in atmospheres, V is the volume in liters, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant (0.082 atm-L/mole-deg K), and T is temperature in Kelvins. STP means standard temperature and pressure and this is taken as 1 atm and 0º C or 273 K.

To calculate the number of molecules we will use the constant 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole and, therefore, we will need to know the number of moles (n). So, first we’ll rearrange the gas law equation, isolating ’n’ and then put the numbers in.

n = PV/RT = 1 * 1 / (0.082)(273) = 0.0447 moles

So, to calculate the number of molecules, multiple this by the number of molecules in a mole and you get:

# molecules of nitrogen in 1 Liter at STP = 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole * 0.0447 moles = 2.6905 * 10^22 molecules

Note, it does not matter what the gas is.

You have a 1.153 g sample of an unknown solid acid, HA, dissolved in enough water to make 20.00 mL of solution. HA reacts with K

seropon [69]

Answer:

HA + KOH → KA + H₂O

Explanation:

The unknown solid acid in water can release its proton as this:

HA + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + A⁻

As we have the anion A⁻, when it bonded to the cation K⁺, salt can be generated, so the reaction of HA and KOH must be a neutralization one, where you form water and a salt

HA + KOH → KA + H₂O

It is a neutralization reaction because H⁺ from the acid and OH⁻ from the base can be neutralized as water

If you can do this for me that would be great thank you!

Answer:

Mass is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration when a net force is applied. An object's mass also determines the strength of its gravitational attraction to other bodies. The basic SI unit of mass is the kilogram.

Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy—including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light—are brought toward one another. On Earth, gravity gives weight to physical objects, and the Moon's gravity causes the ocean tides.

When dealing with the force of gravity between two objects, there are only two things that are important – mass, and distance. The force of gravity depends directly upon the masses of the two objects, and inversely on the square of the distance between them.

Gravitational energy or gravitational potential energy is the potential energy a massive object has in relation to another massive object due to gravity. It is the potential energy associated with the gravitational field, which is released when the objects fall towards each other.

In science and engineering, the weight of an object is the force acting on the object due to gravity. Some standard textbooks define weight as a vector quantity, the gravitational force acting on the object. Others define weight as a scalar quantity, the magnitude of the gravitational force

Newton's law of universal gravitation is usually stated as that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
