If you live in an area of high levels of precipitation which tire would work better?

Two tire brands- brand X and Brand Y. Brand x has a coefficient of friction on dry pavement of 0.90 and on wet pavement of 0.15. Brand Y has a coefficient of friction on dry pavement of 0.88 and on wet pavement 0.45. If you live in an area with high levels of precipitation, which [...]

Where Can I Find Statistics on Global Precipitation?

I’m looking for information on global precipitation over the past few years. I tried the NOAA’s website but wasn’t able to find what I wanted there, even though I think they’d have what I’m looking for.
What I mostly looking for is data showing what general trends precipitation patterns have been making over the past [...]

How easy would it be to convert the rain water to acid precipitation?

If acid precipitation is considered severe if it falls bellow ph4, considering the ph of rainwater how easy would convert to acid precipitation
What causes acid rain?
Acid deposition is a general term that includes more than simply acid rain. Acid deposition primarily results from the transformation of sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides into dry or [...]

Elementary Productions: Potassium Iodide and Lead Nitrate

A petri dish is filled with a small amount of water. Potassium Iodide is added to the petri dish in one end, and Lead Nitrate in the other end. As the two salts diffuse, Lead Iodide is precipitated as a “barrier” surrounding the place where the Lead Nitrate was placed. This is because of a [...]

Selective Precipitation

This General Chemistry lecture covers the selective precipitation of ionic salts as a result of adding acids, bases or common ions to solution. We discuss the effects of pH on the solubility of hydroxide salts, as well as salts that contain other bases such as carbonate anion. We discuss how to calculate the [...]

Which precipitation process will be most important in producing rain from this cloud?

Suppose a thick nimbostratus cloud contains ice crystals and cloud droplets all about the same size. Which precipitation process will be most important in producing rain from this cloud? Why?
The process needed to produce rain is a cooling of the air mass as this is the only way to get the droplets or ice crystals [...]
