Surface of the Earth:  Most of the Earth's surface (70%) is covered with water, and the remaining 30% is taken up by the seven continental landmasses. However, underneath the water that fills the oceans, and the dirt and plants that cover the continents, the Earth's surface layer is made of rock.

Describe the thermocline and what causes it.
Georgia [21]
A thermocline is a transition layer between warmer water at the surface of a body of water and the cooler deep water that lies below. It is caused by the effect of the sun on the water, in that it keeps the upper parts of the body of water warm whilst being unable to reach the lower, deeper parts.

Occasionally, a layer of cool air forms under a layer of warmer air in the troposphere, which is different from the normal condi
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:     Thermal inversion

Explanation:  Thermal inversion or change the position of the air layer, when the warmer layer of air is above the cold layer, which is usually not the case.  It happens due to a change in the normal temperature gradient, i.e. when the gradient becomes inverted. Such thermal inversions can occur in oceanic areas with a lot of upwelling near the coasts. Thermal inversion also occurs when sun radiation is less than radiation from the earth, which is the case during the night. The significance of these inversions is great, especially for air quality in polluted environments such as urban. The strongest inversions are during the winter and can then be dangerous due to poor air quality, which is measured by the AQI (Air Quality Index). The higher the AQI index, the greater the risk of bad air,  that is, the worse air.

An atom of the element chromium has an atomic number of 24 and a mass number of 52. How many electrons are in an uncharged atom
svetlana [45]

Answer:

24

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Atomic number = 24

Mass number  = 52

Unknown:

Number of electrons in the uncharged atom of chromium = ?

Solution:

In an uncharged atom of chromium, the number of protons and electrons are the same.

Once we can find the number protons, we can simply equate it to the number of electrons.

  • Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
  • Therefore, since the atomic number is 24, the number of protons likewise is 24;

Number of electrons is 24
