How do the positions of the hot and cold water affect the speed of convection

1 answer:

7 0

Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another via the movement of fluids. It happens from higher energy level to lower energy level to bring equilibrium to the system.

For vertical set up , if the hot water is places on top of cold water, direction of convection will be from top to bottom. So, gravity can play a role in increasing the rate of flow of energy. if the cold water is places on top of hot water, direction of convection will be from bottom to top. So, gravity can play a role in decreasing the rate of flow of energy.

for Horizontal set up, when hot and cold water are placed side by side, gravity will not playing a role in the flow of energy.So, the position of hot or cold water would not matter.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 : $= [H^+]=0.01 mol/L$

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 : $[H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L$

There are 0.009999 more moles of $H^+$ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in an aqueous solution.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 2 = [H^+]

$2=-\log [H^+]\\$

$[H^+]=10^{-2}M= 0.01 M=0.01 mol/L$

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 6 = [H^+]

$6=-\log [H^+]\\\\$

$[H^+]=10^{-6}M= 0.000001 M= 0.000001 mol/L$

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 = $[H^+]=0.01 mol/L$

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 = $[H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L$

The difference between hydrogen ion concentration at pH 2 and pH 6 :

$= [H^+]-[H^+]' = 0.01 mol/L- 0.000001 mol/L = 0.009999 mol/L$

Moles of hydrogen ion in 0.009999 mol/L solution :

$=0.009999 mol/L\times 1 L=0.009999 mol$

There are 0.009999 more moles of $H^+$ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

Describe asexual reproduction

Brrunno [24]

“Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single organism, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it does not involve the fusion of gametes, and almost never changes the number of chromosomes.” -Wikipedia
