Evaporation

Pluto's atmosphere is 13 times larger than that of Earth's, which is roughly 1600 kilometres. The composition of Pluto's atmosphere is mostly nitrogen with a small amount of methane and carbon monoxide and all of them are the products of their ices' evaporation from the surface of Pluto (Stern et al., 2015). This wide-ranged atmosphere may due to the small gravitational force between the Pluto and the atmospheric atoms, i.e. it is not capable of attracting the whole atmosphere. Newton's theory…

According to Richard K Moran, and Page K, in “ Teaching for Conceptual Understanding in Science”, conceptual understanding is one that is consistent and compatible with scientific knowledge or language of science accepted by the scientific community, not language of incorrect terminology or everyday life used by nonscientists that has different meaning. It is agreed between educators at the present time that students come to school and they have ideas and interpretations does not correspond with…

“Arid climates can be found on every continent. They range from hot and dry deserts that see almost no rain to semiarid scrub land where rain falls intermittently. Arid climates are not suitable for most life forms. Plants and animals that make their homes in arid climates have made special adaptations to the environment.”(Patrick, 2017) While periglacial environments is defined as “Periglacial literally means ‘edge’ of glacial. Periglacial environments are found on the fringes of polar or…

A) species evenness B) microevolution C) ecosystem diversity D) macroevolution E) species richness 21) Most demographers estimate that the human…

Desalination plants implement two varying processes to eliminate sodium chloride from large quantities of water, thus being reverse osmosis and thermal desalination. Distillation desalination, often referred to as thermal desalination, consists of the evaporation and condensation of sea-water, subsequent to heat induction. Thus producing a condensed product with a low concentration of sodium chloride (SIDEM VEOLIA, n.d.). Reverse osmosis employs a semipermeable membrane (cellulose acetate or…

also make it clarity the quality of water being clear to drink, boiling water and SOLAR DISTILLATION Not to be confused with solar sterilization or disinfection, solar distillation purifies even muddy, salty or otherwise undrinkable water through evaporation and condensation.Disinfection and sterilization are both decontamination processes. While disinfection is the process of eliminating or reducing harmful microorganisms from inanimate objects and surfaces, sterilization is the process of…

What is water? Why is water vital to life? What makes water unique? Water is the most abundant compound on Earth and the universal solvent in which the chemistry of the life processes has developed over billions of years. Water has unique chemical and physical properties that make life on Earth possible; it plays a key role in the cycling nutrients on our planet and it is the only common substance that you can find as a solid, a liquid, and a gas. Water exists in every living being, it…

The economic recession in Wortopolis ended in 2001 after a software developer established its headquarters in Wortopolis. This company attracted many educated individuals who moved into the city. The city also experienced a growth in its tourism industry because it constructed a new amusement park. The addition of the new company and the amusement park led to the construction of others projects like hotels, restaurants, nightclubs, retail stores and casinos. These advancements helped re-vitalize…

atmosphere. This has resulted in the melting of the cryosphere. In other words, Earth’s frozen water in the oceans surrounding the boarders of Antarctica and the Arctic is melting. Global weather is also reaching up to higher extremes. Increased water evaporation paves the way for extreme weather storms to occur, which includes hurricanes and tornadoes. Rising sea levels also make coastal flooding significantly worse that what it primarily would be. Finally, since the water temperature of…

was placed in the water bath to monitor the temperature throughout the experiment. After the camphene dissolved, 0.50 mL of 8 M sulfuric acid (H2SO4) was added. To prepare for heating, a cork was placed upside down to cap the mixture and prevent evaporation. The mixture was then heated until the water bath reached 85 °C. The temperature was maintained…
