When a more dense air mass meets a less dense air mass what weather condition ocurs?
Usually a thunderstorm, but depending on the temperature a tornado can also form.
Why is an arctic air mass more stable than a tropical air mass?
The Arctic air is more dense, and therefore does not rise as easily.
A helium balloon rises in the air because it is less dense than oxygen?
The density of a gas depends on its molecular or atomic mass. Carbon dioxide has a molecular mass of about 44 AMU (Atomic Mass Units) while helium has a mass of about 4 AMU.
Is Carbon dioxide more dense than water?
The density of a gas is directly propotional to its molecular mass. The main components of air are diatomic nitrogen and oxygen, which have molecular masses off approximately 28 AMU (atomic mass units) and 32 AMU respectively. Carbon dioxide has a molecular mass of approximately 44 AMU.
Is air more of less dense then water?
No everything is layered in density, water is much more dense than air. The whole planet is organized based on density with the core being the most dense and the exosphere being the least dense.
When a more dense air mass meets a low dense air mass what type of cloud coverage will result?
A stratus cloud.
When a more dense air mass meets a less dense air mass what weather condition ocurs?
Usually a thunderstorm, but depending on the temperature a tornado can also form.
What happens when there is less mass in a given volume air?
The air is less dense.
What causes an air mass to have high pressure?
the air becomes dense and it sinks
Where is the air the least dense?
The farther away from the Earth's surface, the less dense the air will be. Of course, once you break out of the atmosphere, there will be no air around you.
What air mass is hot and dry?
hot air more dense as compare to cold air
How can an object with the most mass be the least dense?
An inflated hot-air balloon has much more mass, but is much less dense, than a 5-pound bar-bell. As a matter of fact, so is an aircraft carrier ... it floats, but the bar-bell sinks.
How is a Hershey bar like a cold air mass?
it is dense
Why is an arctic air mass more stable than a tropical air mass?
The Arctic air is more dense, and therefore does not rise as easily.
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
less dense
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increasesit becomes less dense?
No, it does not.
A helium balloon rises in the air because it is less dense than oxygen?
The density of a gas depends on its molecular or atomic mass. Carbon dioxide has a molecular mass of about 44 AMU (Atomic Mass Units) while helium has a mass of about 4 AMU.
