Why are hurricanes getting more intense

2 answers:

5 0

Urricanes act as giant heat engines, so it is logical to assume that an increase in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) will make more intense hurricanes. Indeed, there is a general consensus among hurricane scientists that an increase in SSTs due to global warming, should, in theory, lead to more intense hurricanes.As the storm gets stronger, it gets rounder and the eye begins to form. Really stronghurricanes have very clear round eyes like the one in this picture. The most intense winds in a hurricane are in the thunderstorms that form the eyewall. Tropical cyclones strengthen when all of the conditions are right for them.

Hurricanes are getting more intense because of global warming. I think this because, global warming is the mostly running the natural disasters. So far, after hurricane Irma, there was hurricane Maria. Is happened because the wind speed got too high and the water was affected by global warming.

This might not make sense, but I answered what I knew

A gas at a pressure of 360 torrs and a volume of 750 ml. If the pressure becomes 1.5 atm what is the new volume?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

V₂ = 236.84 mL

Explanation:

The relation between pressure and volume is inverse.

We can write it as follows :

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

We have,

P₁ = 360 torrs, V₁ = 750 mL, P₂ = 1.5 atm = 1140 torr.

So,

$V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{360\times 750}{1140}\\\\V_2=236.84\ mL$

So, the new volume of the gas is 236.84 mL.

Which substances can act as an arrhenius acid in aqueous solution

My name is Ann [436]

HI acts as an arrhenius acid in solution. It will dissociate into H⁺ and I⁻ therefore being a proton donor. (HI is actually one of the 7 strong acids)
I hope this helps.

Which carboxylic acid can be combined with an alcohol to form the ester shown below?

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH.

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, let us hydrolysed the given ester. This is illustrated in the attached photo.

Hydrolysis of ester involves breaking the ester bond by a water molecule to produce the corresponding alcohol and carboxylic acid.

From the reaction given in the attached photo, we can see that the carboxylic acid needed to produce the desired ester is butanoic acid, CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH.

Please please please help

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the main molecular reaction that is taken place in the beaker is:

$AgNO_3(aq)+BaI_2(aq)\rightarrow AgI(s)+Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)$

In such a way, we understand that one breaker contained silver nitrate and the other one barium iodide. Thus, the complete molecular equations turns out:

$2AgNO_3(aq)+BaI_2(aq)\rightarrow 2AgI(s)+Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)$

Now, for the complete ionic equation, we just ionize the aqueous species:

$2Ag^++2NO_3^-+Ba^{2+}+2I^-\rightarrow 2AgI(s)+Ba^{2+}+2(NO_3)^-$

Finally, for the net ionic equation we cancel out barium and nitrate ions as the spectator one because they are both sides on the equation:

$2Ag^++2I^-\rightarrow 2AgI(s)$

Best regards!
