How does sunlight hits earths surface closer to the poles?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures.

During the workup portion of the reaction of alkenes with HBr as described in the experiment provided, a student transferred the reaction mixture to a separatory funnel, rinsed the reaction flask with diethyl ether, and added the ether rinses to the separatory funnel. The student then added sodium bicarbonate to the separatory funnel. Extremely vigorous bubbling occurred. What did the student do wrong

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Because of the acid-base reaction, as sodium bicarbonate is introduced to the separatory funnel, the additional or unreacted HBr reacts vigorously to yield CO2 gas, which exits the separatory funnel together with any dissolved compound(s) in the ether layer. This is due to a wrong and incorrect selection of the solvent mixture and the addition of sodium bicarbonate to an acidic solution.

Nothing to do with it until it has leaked out of the separatory funnel. Even then, the student may separate the components from the remaining reaction mixture by washing the ether coating layer several times with brine water, then running it into a dry sodium sulfate bed and evaporating solvent ether under decreased pressure.

Enter your answer to zero decimal places (round to the ones place). Do
not include the units of "g", just the numerical answer.

Answers

Answer:

2663 g

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the molar mass Of X₂Y₅Z₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of X₂Y₅Z₃ = (13.25×2) + (69.23×5) + (109.34×3)

= 26.5 + 346.15 + 328.02

= 700.67 g/mol

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 3.8 moles of X₂Y₅Z₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of X₂Y₅Z₃ = 700.67 g/mol

Mole of X₂Y₅Z₃ = 3.8 moles

Mass of X₂Y₅Z₃ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of X₂Y₅Z₃ = 3.8 × 700.67

Mass of X₂Y₅Z₃ = 2663 g

Therefore, the of 3.8 moles of X₂Y₅Z₃ is

2663 g

How do conduction, convection, and radiation redistribute incoming solar energy?​

Answers

The Earth’s climate is a solar powered system. Globally, over the course of the year, the Earth system—land surfaces, oceans, and atmosphere—absorbs an average of about 240 watts of solar power per square meter (one watt is one joule of energy every second). The absorbed sunlight drives photosynthesis, fuels evaporation, melts snow and ice, and warms the Earth system. The Sun doesn’t heat the Earth evenly. Because the Earth is a sphere, the Sun heats equatorial regions more than polar regions. The atmosphere and ocean work non-stop to even out solar heating imbalances through evaporation of surface water, convection, rainfall, winds, and ocean circulation. This coupled atmosphere and ocean circulation is known as Earth’s heat engine.

The climate’s heat engine must not only redistribute solar heat from the equator toward the poles, but also from the Earth’s surface and lower atmosphere back to space. Otherwise, Earth would endlessly heat up. Earth’s temperature doesn’t infinitely rise because the surface and the atmosphere are simultaneously radiating heat to space. This net flow of energy into and out of the Earth system is Earth’s energy budget. Energy from sunlight is not spread evenly over Earth. One hemisphere is always dark, receiving no solar radiation at all. On the daylight side, only the point directly under the Sun receives full-intensity solar radiation. From the equator to the poles, the Sun’ rays meet Earth at smaller and smaller angles, and the light gets spread over larger and larger surface areas (red lines). (NASA illustration by Robert Simmon.) The solar radiation received at Earth’s surface varies by time and latitude. This graph illustrates the relationship between latitude, time, and solar energy during the equinoxes. The illustrations show how the time of day (A-E) affects the angle of incoming sunlight (revealed by the length of the shadow) and the light’s intensity. On the equinoxes, the Sun rises at 6:00 a.m. everywhere. The strength of sunlight increases from sunrise until noon, when the Sun is directly overhead along the equator (casting no shadow). After noon, the strength of sunlight decreases until the Sun sets at 6:00 p.m. The tropics (from 0 to 23.5° latitude) receive about 90% of the energy compared to the equator, the mid-latitudes (45°) roughly 70%, and the Arctic and Antarctic Circles about 40%. (NASA illustration by Robert Simmon.) The amount of sunlight the Earth absorbs depends on the reflectivness of the atmosphere and the ground surface. This satellite map shows the amount of solar radiation (watts per square meter) reflected during September 2008. Along the equator, clouds reflected a large proportion of sunlight, while the pale sands of the Sahara caused the high reflectivness in North Africa. Neither pole is receiving much incoming sunlight at this time of year, so they reflect little energy even though both are ice-covered. Hope this helps!

The solar energy from sun is radiating to the earth's surface and making the atmosphere warmer. The heat energy is redistributing back by through different heat transfer modes.

What is heat transfer?

Heat energy transfer  from hotter region to colder region by the temperature gradient. The heat is transferring through solids by conduction. Conduction is the process of heat transfer through the closely packed particles in solids.

Heat transfers through convection in liquids. Where the hot molecules rise to the surface and transfers the heat to other molecules. The heat radiated to the earth make the sources in earth warmer. Through convection, the water molecules heat up.

The water vapor formed by convection process radiates to the atmosphere and redistributes the energy back.

How many grams are there in 1.8055 x 10^25 molecules of sodium sulfate? Hint: Convert to moles first

Answers

Answer:

4258.82 g of Na₂SO₄

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained;

Number of molecules of Na₂SO₄ = 1.8055x10²⁵ molecules.

Number of mole of Na₂SO₄ =?

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

6.02×10²³ molecules = 1 mole

Therefore,

6.02×10²³ molecules = 1 mole of Na₂SO₄

Next, we shall determine the mass of 1 mole of Na₂SO₄. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of Na₂SO₄ = (23×2) + 32 + (16×4)

= 46 + 32 + 64

= 142 g

Thus,

6.02×10²³ molecules = 142 g of Na₂SO₄

Finally, we shall determine the mass of Na₂SO₄ that contains 1.8055x10²⁵ molecules. This can be obtained as follow:

6.02×10²³ molecules = 142 g of Na₂SO₄

Therefore,

1.8055x10²⁵ molecules

= (1.8055x10²⁵ × 142) / 6.02×10²³

= 4258.82 g of Na₂SO₄

Thus, 4258.82 g of Na₂SO₄ contains 1.8055x10²⁵ molecules

Bears stop coming to a river ecosystem where they have been eating many fish each day. The fish the bears eat normally eat smaller fish, which eat plants along the river bottom.

What happens to the ecosystem?


Both the larger and the smaller fish populations grow quickly but then die out because the plant life is insufficient for them all to eat.

The larger fish population will drop first, and the smaller fish population will grow quickly. The plants will die off because too many of the smaller fish are eating them.

The larger fish population explodes at first, and the smaller fish population begins to drop. Eventually, the river runs out of smaller fish so larger fish die out, and the plant population grows.

The smaller fish population begins to eat more plants and to grow. The larger fish have more food to eat so their population is able to grow, too.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial concentration (C₁) = 6 M

Initial volume (V₁) = 50 mL

Final concentration (C₂) = 0.5 M

Final volume (V₂) =?

Using the dilution formula (i.e C₁V₁ = C₂V₂) we can obtain the final volume as illustrated below:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

6 × 50 = 0.5 × V₂

300 = 0.5 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.5

V₂ = 300 / 0.5

V₂ = 600 mL

Thus, the final volume is 600 mL

B. Both processes can release huge amounts of energy.
C. Both processes conserve mass.
D. Both processes produce dangerous radiation.

Answers

The statement, that describes about nuclear fission and nuclear fusion is "both processes can release huge amounts of energy."

What is nuclear fission and fusion?

Nuclear fission is the process by which an atom's nucleus breaks into two or more smaller nuclei. Nuclear fusion is the process by which two light atomic nuclei merge to produce a single heavier one, releasing huge quantities of energy in the process.

Fusion and fission are both nuclear reactions that yield significant amounts of energy that can be used to generate power. However, fission is the splitting of atoms, whereas fusion is the joining of them.

To put in another way, while both nuclear reactions that generate energy, the methods are vastly different. They both produce a lot of energy.
