Where did the fahrenheit temperature scale get its name?

Chemistry
1 answer:
____ [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit

Explanation:

he 18th-century German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit originally took as the zero of his scale the temperature of an equal ice-salt mixture and selected the values of 30° and 90° for the freezing point of water and normal body temperature, respectively; these later were revised to 32° and 96°, but the final scale required an adjustment to 98.6° for the latter value.

Read below. You should probably not take my advice for blue cheese salad dressing.

Explanation:

Table Salt (NaCl) is a molecule made up of 2 atoms,

Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl)

Blue Cheese Salad Dressing is probably a heterogeneous mixture (I don't know it's ingredients) or a solution (Was something dissolved in it?)

Iron (Fe) is an element in the Periodic Table of Elements.

Explain why the constellations in the night sky change with the seasons
kirill [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

If observed through the year, the constellations shift gradually to the west. This is caused by Earth's orbit around our Sun. In the summer, viewers are looking in a different direction in space at night than they are during the winter.

8. How are convection currents in the mantle (geosphere) and in the oceans (hydrosphere) similar? How are they different? Answer
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Mantle convection is the slow creeping motion of Earth's rocky mantle caused by convection currents carrying heat from the interior of the earth to the surface while convection current in ocean in; Solar radiation affects the oceans: warm water from the Equatortends to circulate toward the poles, while cold polar water heads towards the Equator. The surface currents are initially dictated by surface wind conditions. The trade winds blow westward in the tropics, and the westerlies blow eastward at mid-latitudes. This wind pattern applies a stress to the subtropical ocean surface with negative curl across the northern hemisphere, and the reverse across the Southern Hemisphere. The resulting Sverdrup transport is equator ward.Because of conservation of potential vorticity caused by the poleward-moving winds on the subtropical ridge's western periphery and the increased relative vorticity of poleward moving water, transport is balanced by a narrow, accelerating poleward current, which flows along the western boundary of the ocean basin, outweighing the effects of friction with the cold western boundary current which origniates from high latitudes

Calculate the volume of one mole of a gas at 1.00 atm pressure and 0 °C.
N76 [4]

Answer:

Solution:-

The gas is in the standard temperature and pressure condition i.e. at S.T.P

Therefore,

As given that the expansion is isothermal and reversible

∴ΔU=0

Now from first law of thermodynamics,

ΔU=q+w

∵ΔU=0

∴q=–w

Given that the heat is absorbed.

∴q=1000cal

⇒w=−q=−1000cal

Now,

Work done in a reversible isothermal expansion is given by-

w=−nRTln(

Given:-

n=1 mol

∴1000=−nRTln(
