Usually when we talk about uneven heating of the Earth's surface we are discussing convection. The uneven heating results in some of the atmosphere to be warmer than other parts and changes in volume and pressure which result in updrafts and can cause thunderstorms and other violent weather.

A 20. 0-liter flask contains a mixture of argon at 0. 72 atmosphere and oxygen at 1. 65 atmospheres. What is the total pressure

exis [7]

The total pressure of the system is equivalent to the sum of all the pressure of the individual gases. The total pressure of the flask is 2.37 atm.

<h3>What is total pressure?</h3>

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure of the system will be equivalent to the total of the pressures exerted by the individual gases present in the system.

The total pressure of gases is given as,

$\rm P = P_{1} +P_{2}+ P_{3}.....P_{n}$

Given,

The pressure of argon gas = 0.72 atm
The pressure of oxygen = 1.65 atm
Total pressure = P

Substituting values in the above equation:

$\begin{aligned}\rm P &= 0.72 + 1.65\\\\&=2.37\;\rm atm\end{aligned}$

Therefore, 2.37 atm is the total pressure of the flask.

How do researchers select a sample that is representative of its population

tiny-mole [99]

Explanation:

Using stratified random sampling, researchers must identify characteristics, divide the population into strata, and proportionally choose individuals for the representative sample. ... For example, individuals who are too busy to participate will be under-represented in the representative sample.
