Answer:

NOAA's GOES East and West satellites also show the storm's evolution by measuring infrared and visible radiation from the atmosphere and surface in real-time. These measurements tell us about wind at various levels in the atmosphere, sea surface temperatures and cloud properties.

Answer:

Since they are in a geostationary orbit, the GOES satellites provide continuous monitoring of the Earth's surface. They are able to constantly monitor the life cycle of significant weather such as hurricanes, tornadoes, flash floods, and hail storms.

Calculate the volume occupied by 272g

cupoosta [38]

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

Explanation:

Given:

mass of methane( $CH_{4}$ ) = 272 grams

pressure (P) = 250 k Pa =250×10^3 Pa

temperature(t) = 54°C =54 + 273 = 327 K

Also given:

R = 8.31JK-1 mol-1 ,

Molar mass of methane( $CH_{4}$ ) = 16.0 grams

We know;

According to the ideal gas equation,

P × V = n × R × T

here,

n = m÷M

n =272 ÷ 16

n = 17 moles

Therefore,

250×10^3 × V = 17 × 8.31 × 327

V = ( 17 × 8.31 × 327 ) ÷ ( 250×10^3 )

V = 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

What is relative isotopic mass

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a dimensionless physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass constant. The atomic mass constant is defined as being 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

Using Argn (n= –2, –1, 0, +1, +2, etc.) to represent the different charge species of Arginine, what is the dominant species of A

fredd [130]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the sorensen equation; pH = -Log[H+]

2.7 = -Log[H+]

H+ = 10^-2.7

H+ = 0.001995M = Hydrogen ion concentration

Basically, the more the charges, the higher the hydrogen ion concentration stand vice versa. +2 has the highest concentration.
