What is one effect of the uneven heating of Earth caused by the Sun? (Answer with a 5 sentence paragraph)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Papessa [141]3 years ago

Answer:

Albedo

Explanation:

Usually when we talk about uneven heating of the Earth's surface we are discussing convection. The uneven heating results in some of the atmosphere to be warmer than other parts and changes in volume and pressure which result in updrafts and can cause thunderstorms and other violent weather. The cause of this is the reflectiveness of the surface of the Earth at that point (the albedo) and the angle that the sun's rays strike it at. A field covered with snow and ice is going to be much more reflective than a black top asphalt parking lot. As such the parking lot absorbs much more shortwave radiation from the sun and gets much warmer.

Use the successive ionization energies for this unknown element to identify the family it belongs to.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer: Belongs to the group 2A

Explanation:

As you can see, the first two ionization energies are close and low, meaning that this element ionizates easily.

Not only loses easily the first electron, but the second too

To remove the third electron you requiered a huge amount of energy

Now, elements easily ionizable are the ones from group IA, group 2A and transition metals.

The last ones have mixed characteristics in matter of how many electrons you can remove from them, so they are not a family.

Now the question: group I or group II ?

The elements of group I have low  ionization energies  for the first electron but high energies for the second ones.

Being all that said, the unknown element belongs to the Group 2A

(~40 Points, Please answer and explain)
Helen [10]

Answers:

1. CO₂ < Ar    < N₂ < He;

2.  Cl₂ < CO₂ < Ar < N₂ < H₂

Step-by-step explanation:

Graham’s Law applies to the diffusion of gases:

The rate of diffusion (r) of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass (M).

r = \frac{1 }{\sqrt{M}}

If you have two gases, the ratio of their rates of diffusion is

\frac{r_{2}}{r_{1}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}

1. Order of diffusion rates

According to Graham's Law, the lightest gases will have the highest diffusion rates and the heavier gases the slowest.

The molecular masses of the gases are:

Ar 39.95; CO₂ 44.01; He 4.00; N₂ 28.02

Putting them in order,we get

44.01 > 39.95 > 28.02  > 4.00

CO₂   >    Ar     >     N₂    >   He

Thus, the relative rates of diffusion are

CO₂ < Ar < N₂ < He

2. Order of molecular speeds

A postulate of the Kinetic Molecular Theory is that at a given temperature, the average kinetic energy of the molecules is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.

KE = ½ mv² ∝ T

           mv² ∝ T      Divide each side by m

              v² ∝ T/m

If T is constant.

              v² ∝ 1/m     Take the square root of each side

               v ∝ 1/√m

This is an inverse relationship, so the molecules with the smallest molecular mass should have the highest average speeds.

The molecular masses of the gases are:

N₂ 28.02; H₂ 2.016; Cl₂ 70.91; CO₂ 44.01; Ar 39.95

Putting them in order. we get

70.91 > 44.01 > 39.95 > 28.02  > 2.016

   Cl₂   >  CO₂  >   Ar    >     N₂   >   H₂

Thus, the relative molecular speeds are

Cl₂ < CO₂ < Ar < N₂ < H₂

How many moles of LiOH are needed to react completely with 25.5 g of CO2
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

3.18 mol

Explanation:

2LiOH+CO_{2}-> Li_{2}CO_{3} +H_{2}O

n(CO2) = mass/ Mr.

             = 25.5 / 16

             = 1.59 mol

As per the equation above,

n(LiOH) : n(CO2)

     2      :    1

∴  3.18   :  1.59

A student submits the following work on the mass number, but he has made a few mistakes. Select the sentences that are incorrect
rewona [7]

Answer

 

Calculating the mass number for an atom requires that we know the atomic number and the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus. The mass number then gives us the average weight of atoms of a given element. However, as long as the number of protons equals the number of neutrons, the values balance out and we always obtain a whole number for the mass number.
