How does the temperature of the air change with altitude?

Chemistry

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.

The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C2 molecule is?
Butoxors [25]

The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C₂ molecule is 2pπ orbitals.

<h3>What is Molecular Orbital Theory?</h3>

According to this theory,

  • Molecular orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals of two or more atoms having comparable energies
  • The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals combined.
  • The shape of molecular orbitals formed depends on the type of atomic orbitals combined
  • Only atomic orbitals having comparable energies and the same orientation can intermix
  • Bonding M.O. is formed by the additive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has lower energy and high stability.
  • Antibonding M.O. is formed by the subtractive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has higher energy and low stability.
  • Bonding M.O. is represented by \sigma, \pi, \delta while Antibonding M.O. is represented by \sigma^*, \pi^*, \delta^*\\

John rings a doorbell.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

<u>Yes</u>

Explanation:

Remember, <u>Newton's third law of motion;</u> which says in part that <em>"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction."</em>

Hence, in this case, the fact that the doorbell rang out implies that there was another force that was exerted on it; which is, John's finger pressing the doorbell.

In other words, when John uses his fingers to press the doorbell button he applies a force (a mechanical force), and that force results in an opposite reaction; the ringing of the doorbell.
