What happens when wind sweeps up sand and throws it against a big rock?

Chemistry
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]2 years ago
4 0
In deserts, wind often causes weathering by blowing sand and other material against cliffs and large rocks. This wears them down and creates more bits of sand and dust. Over time, the rock is scraped and polished away. ... When a gust of wind blows, it picks up sand and other bits of material.

An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

NO2 is the molecular formula  of nitrogen Oxide​

Explanation:

Correct question

An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen

its vapour dentity is 23. Find the molecular formula

Of nitrogen Oxide

Solution

As we know

Molecular Weight  is equal to two times the  vapour density

Hence, the molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is 2 * 22 = 44

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen  is the sum of atomic weight of nitrogen and oxygen

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen = 14 + 16 *Y

14 + 16 *Y  = 46

Y = 2

Hence, the formula is NO2

Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive?
satela [25.4K]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive

a) Flourine

b) Chlorine

c) Astatine

d) Iodine

Answer: c) Astatine

Explanation:

Halogen is the name given to Group 17 family with general electronic configuration of ns^2np^5 which have 7 valence electrons and thus easily gain one electron to attain stable configuration.

As we move down the group from flourine to chlorine to bromine to iodine to astatine , the valence shell moves farther from nucleus and thus tendency to accept the electron decreases and thus reactivity also decreases.

Thus Astatine is the least reactive of all.

Volcanoes release several gases during eruptions. Which of these gases has been shown to cause significant cooling of the climat
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

A. sulfur dioxide

Explanation:

The volcanoes are able to influence the global climate both on the short term and on the long term. The end result can be either cooling off of the climate, or warming up of it, depending on what type of gasses are the volcanoes going to release in the atmosphere, as well as how much of them. The sulfur dioxide is a gas that is released by the volcanoes that causes cooling off of the climate. This gas is going through conversion and becomes sulfuric acid, and it is able to restrict the amount of sunlight reaching the surface of the Earth, as well as increasing the reflective properties of the atmosphere, resulting in a few years of significant cooling of the climate.
