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.

Consider the following balanced thermochemical equation for a reaction sometimes used for H₂S production: 1/8 S₈(s) + H₂(g) → H₂

castortr0y [4]

ΔH = -15.78 KJ when 25.0 g of S₈ reacts.

<h3>What is Balanced Chemical Equation ?</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.

The given reaction balanced equation is:

1/8 S₈(s) + H₂(g) → H₂S(g) ΔH = -20.22kj

Now,

When 1 mol will react, then ΔH = -20.2 × 8

= -161.6 KJ

When 1 mol of S8 = 8 × 32 g

= 256 g

When 256g of S8 react ΔH = -161.6 KJ

When 1 g reacts, ΔH = $\frac{-161.6}{256}$

=- 0.63125 KJ

When 25 g reacts, ΔH = - 0.63125 × 25

= -15.78 KJ

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that ΔH = -15.78 KJ when 25.0 g of S₈ reacts.

The concentration of copper(II) sulfate in one brand of soluble plant fertilizer is 0.070% by weight. If a 21.5 g sample of this

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The molar concentration of $Cu^{2+}$ ions in the given amount of sample is $4.73\times 10^{-5}M$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sample = 21.5 g

0.07 % (m/m) of copper (II) sulfate in plant fertilizer

This means that, in 100 g of plant fertilizer, 0.07 g of copper (II) sulfate is present

So, in 20 g of plant fertilizer

, $=\frac{0.07}{100}\times 21.5}\\=0.0151g$ of copper (II) sulfate is present.

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Mass of solute (copper (II) sulfate) = 0.0151 g

Molar mass of copper (II) sulfate = 159.6 g/mol

Volume of solution = 2.0 L

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{0.0151g}{159.6g/mol\times 2.0L}\\\\\text{Molarity of solution}=4.73\times 10^{-5}M$

The chemical equation for the ionization of copper (II) sulfate follows:

$CuSO_4\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

1 mole of copper (II) sulfate produces 1 mole of copper (II) ions and sulfate ions

Molarity of copper (II) ions = $4.73\times 10^{-5}M$

Hence, the molar concentration of $Cu^{2+}$ ions in the given amount of sample is $4.73\times 10^{-5}M$
