Ocean

Explanation:

Organisms that live in the ocean experience harsh weather conditions under the water and require lots of fat to cheap them warm due to the cold temperature. Examples are sea gulls, sharks, whales, penguins, seals etc. Without the fat underneath their skins, they won't survive the weather condition there. Likewise they can't survive outside that environment due to several factors but also the fat in them would also make it difficult to survive warmer temperatures.

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.

Write 15 uses of a mercury barometer along with its characterestics

Answer from: Quest

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. $hbr$ completely dissociates to $h^+$ and $br-$ ions. a is incorrect because $h_2s$ does not fully ionize to $h^+$ and $hs^-$ ions and some remain as the compound $h_2s$ . c and d are incorrect because, $li_2o$ and $libr$ do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise, if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both $li_2o$ and $libr$ have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
