Given the following choices, determine which best suits as a characteristic of a hurricane.
Answer Choices:
A. Hurricanes occur mostly inland
B. Hurricanes create widespread damage
C. Hurricanes can only last for a short amount of time
D. Hurricanes gain strength after passing overland
Best Answer: B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage.
Reason: A would not be correct since it is more of a variable, due to the fact that hurricanes usually begin near the coastlines, hurricanes are in fact capable of moving inland for atleast 100 miles before it dies down to a tropical storm or depression.
C is not correct since hurricanes can last up to a whole week which is approximately 168 hours.
D is not correct since it is another variable in which hurricanes can decrease in strength if it comes into contact with cool and dry air which is the opposite of warm and moist which it needs in order to occur.
Therefore, the best choice is B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage, hurricanes can unleash a staggering arsenal of mother nature's strength and the most damage a hurricane has caused can go up to 125 billion USD in damages.
Answer: If the intermolecular forces are weak, then molecules can break out of the solid or liquid more easily into the gas phase. Consider two different liquids, one polar one not, contained in two separate boxes. We would expect the molecules to more easily break away from the bulk for the non-polar case. If the molecules are held tightly together by strong intermolecular forces, few of the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to separate from each other. They will stay in the liquid phase, and the rate of evaporation will be low. ... They will escape from the liquid phase, and the rate of evaporation will be high. To make water evaporate, energy has to be added. The water molecules in the water absorb that energy individually. Due to this absorption of energy the hydrogen bonds connecting water molecules to one another will break.
Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!! :D
Note: Above question is incomplete: Complete question is read as
<span>According the the arrhenius theory, which species does an acid produce in an aqueous solution?
</span>A) hydrogen ions B) hydroxyl ions C) Sodium ions D) Chloride ion
.....................................................................................................................
Correct answer for above question is A) Hydrogen ions
Reason:
According the Arrhenius theory of acid and base, acid generates hydrogen ions in aqueous medium, while bases generates hydroxyl ions in aqueous medium.
Example of Acid:
HCl(aq) → H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Example of Base:
NaOH(aq) → Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)
