1) What is air pressure? (Answer: Atmospheric pressure, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.)

2) What is a barometer and what is it used to measure? (Answer: A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather.)

3) How does air pressure change? (Answer: Millibar values used in meteorology range from about 100 to 1050. At sea level, standard air pressure in millibars is 1013.2. Weather maps showing the pressure at the surface are drawn using millibars. ... This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.)

4) Why is cooler, drier air related to High Pressure? (Answer: This is due to density differences between the two air masses. Since stronger high-pressure systems contain cooler or drier air, the air mass is denser and flows towards areas that are warm or moist, which are in the vicinity of low pressure areas in advance of their associated cold fronts.)

5) Why is warm, moister air related to Low Pressure? (Answer: When air warms, its molecules scatter. The air becomes lighter and rises.)

6.) The barometer would show a decrease in wind speed resulting in the dissipation of cloud cover because of the lack of wind, and also because the temperature is dropping there is less precipitation because there is no hot air rising to create clouds.

7.) If it is getting cloudy, it is because the air is rising. This is what causes the condensation of the moisture by adiabatic cooling of a lesser pressure aloft. If the air is rising, the pressure must fall. The barometer will show a lesser pressure. The temperature, on the other side, has very little to do with it.

Write a balanced molecular equation for hydrochloride acid solution combined with a potassium hydroxide solution, an acid base r

qaws [65]

Answer:

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq) --------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l) [balanced molecular equation]

Explanation:

Balanced molecular equation has all the components of reaction written as "molecules" thus the name molecular (the other equations break appropriate components into ions, those are total ionic or net ionic equation)

We know hydrochloride acid solution is written as HCl (aq) and potassium hydroxide solution is written as KOH (aq). We know from our knowledge that when acids react with bases they make salt and water, so now we react!

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq) --------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l) [balanced molecular equation]

What is the mass of 18.0 mL of honey if its' density is 1.42 g/mL?

BigorU [14]

mass (m) = ? , volume = 18.0 ml , density = 1.42 g/ml .

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\ \\ d = \frac{m}{v} \\ \\ mass = density \times volume \\ \\ m = d \times v \\ \\ m = 18 \: ml \times \: 1.42 \: \frac{g}{ml} \\ \\ m = 25.56 \: g$

What needed to be present in marine mud to form fossil fuels?

UkoKoshka [18]

When organisms and plants died and sank to the bottom of swamps and oceans, brown soil-like materials called peat are formed. Over millions of years, the peat became covered with sand, clay and other minerals and the peat is converted into layers of sedimentary rocks. After a long time, different type of fossil fuels are formed.

Why would you want to use a material that is not likely to undergo a phsical change for your stepping stone?

nadya68 [22]

Because a good stepping stone would be a solid and if that solid were to melt or turn to gas you’d have no stepping stone.
