The Coriolis effect influences _____. neither wind speed nor wind direction wind speed both wind speed and wind direction wind d

Alona [7]

Answer: The correct answer is "wind direction".

Explanation:

Coriolis effect: This is an apparent deflection of moving air or water caused by the rotation of the earth.

Currents are created by wind. Their directions are determined by Coriolis effect.

Currents are created by wind. The earth is in constant motion. It describes the rotation of the earth which steers winds and the surface current. The ocean surface currents are deflected by Coriolis effect.

The direction of the wind blows from north and south towards equator.

Therefore, the Coriolis effect influences wind direction.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Unbalanced] Mg (s) + HCl (aq) → MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)

↓

[RxN - Balanced] 2Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → 2MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)

[Given] 3.25 mol Mg

[Solve] x g HCl

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol Mg → 2 mol HCl

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol

Molar Mass of HCl - 1.01 + 35.45 = 36.46 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoich</u>

[S - DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 3.25 \ mol \ Mg(\frac{2 \ mol \ HCl}{2 \ mol \ Mg})(\frac{36.46 \ g \ HCl}{1 \ mol \ HCl})$
[S - DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 127.61 \ g \ HCl$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

127.61 g HCl ≈ 128 g HCl

Calculate the volume of a 0.5M solution containing 20g of NaOH

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the number of mole present in 20g of NaOH. This is illustrated below:

Mass = 20g

Molar Mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Number of mole =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of NaOH = 20/40 = 0.5mol

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

Molarity = 0.5M

Mole = 0.5mole

Volume =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Volume = mole /Molarity

Volume = 0.5/0.5

Volume = 1L

In the reaction ___h2+n2 ->2 NH3, what coefficient should be placed in front of H2 to balance the reaction?

Nataly_w [17]

In order to balance this equation you need to count each element and how many of the individual elements are in the equation.
_H2+N2=2 NH3
You multiply the 2 (Which is the coefficient) by the 3 (which is the subscript) This would equal 6 which indicated there are 6 hydrogen atoms on the right side so the left side should also have 6 hydrogen atoms

The missing coefficient on the left side must multiple the 2 to become 6 hydrogen
