1. What is the cause of the Coriolis effect?

2 answers:

8 0

1.) The answer would be D.Earth's rotation, since the rotation makes the air and wind direction appear to be going in a different direction than it really is due to the earth rotating (this deflects the winds)
2.) The answer would be C.Relative Humidity, since this is ratio of water vapor in the air to a given area, while humidity is simply the amount of water vapor in the air in general.
3.) B. Warm Front, since cold fronts usually bring stormy weather, while the weather conditions brought by a warm front are typically more mild.
4.) For this one, I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure the closest answer would be C.4. The way I have learned this is that there have been 5 major ice ages, however the choice isn't on there.

I need help with these questions, please!

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1. Ionic bond

2. High melting point and high boiling point for ionic bonds while covalent bonds have low melting and boiling point.

3. The similarity is that ionic and covalent bonding lead to the creation of stable molecules.

4. 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

5. It uses the process of fission.

6. Fission involves the splitting of radioactive elements into smaller particles/compounds while Fusion involves combining of two or more atomic nuclei to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

7. Nuclear power plants produce little to no greenhouse gas.

Nuclear power plants produce a large amount of energy for a small mass of fuel.

Nuclear is less expensive.

How many grams of HF are needed to react with 3.0 moles of Sn?

Flauer [41]

Answer:

120g

Explanation:

Step 1:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction.

Sn + 2HF —> SnF2 + H2

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole HF needed to react with 3 moles of Sn.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Sn and reacted with 2 moles of HF.

Therefore, 3 moles Sn will react with = 3 x 2 = 6 moles of HF.

Step 3:

Conversion of 6 moles of HF to grams.

Number of mole HF = 6 moles

Molar Mass of HF = 1 + 19 = 20g/mol

Mass of HF =..?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of HF = 6 x 20

Mass of HF = 120g

Therefore, 120g of HF is needed to react with 3 moles of Sn.

How many grams of solid Ca(OH)2 (74.1 g/mol) are required to make 500 ml of a 3 M solution?

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

111.15 g are required to prepare 500 ml of a 3 M solution

Explanation:

In a 3 M solution of Ca(OH)₂ there are 3 moles of Ca(OH)₂ per liter solution. In 500 ml of this solution, there will be (3 mol/2) 1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂.

Since 1 mol of Ca(OH)₂ has a mass of 74.1 g, 1.5 mol will have a mass of

(1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂ *(74.1 g / 1 mol)) 111.15 g. This mass of Ca(OH)₂ is required to prepare the 500 ml 3 M solution.
