How does the temperature of the air change with altitude?

Chemistry
1 answer:
TiliK225 [7]3 years ago
8 0
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.

A salt solution will conduct electricity but if sugar solution will not explain why​
Rainbow [258]

Salt solution such as sodium chloride (NaCl) conducts an electric current because it has ions in it that have the freedom to move about in solution. ... On the other hand, sugar solution does not conduct an electric current because sugar (C12H22O11) dissolves in water to produce sugar molecules
