How does the temperature of the air change with altitude?

Chemistry

TiliK225 [7]3 years ago

As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.

Calculate the mass of sodium phosphate in aqueous solution to fully react with 37 g of chromium nitrate(III) an aqueous solution
Alla [95]

Answer:

41 g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

Cr(NO3)3(aq)+Na3PO4(aq)=3NaNO3(s)+CrPO4(aq)

Number of moles of chromium nitrate = 37g/ 146.97 g/mol = 0.25 moles

1 mole of sodium phosphate reacts with 1 mole of chromium nitrate

x moles of sodium phosphate react as with 0.25 moles of chromium nitrate

x= 1 × 0.25/1

x= 0.25 moles

Mass of sodium phosphate = 0.25 moles × 163.94 g/mol

Mass of sodium phosphate = 41 g

A person walking covers 5.20 m in 10.4 s. How fast is the person moving?
salantis [7]

Answer:

<h2>0.50 m/s</h2><h2></h2>

Explanation:

Velocity = distance over time

where distance = 5.20 m

                   time = 10.4 s.

velocity = <u>  5.20  m </u>

                  10.4 s.

            = 0.50 m/s
