Atmospheric pressure decreases as altitude increases. In other words, there is more air pushing down on you at sea level, and there is less air pressure pushing down on you when you are on a mountain.
If pentane (C5H12C5H12), heptane (C7H16C7H16), and heptanol (C7H15OHC7H15OH) are heated evenly at different altitudes, rank them according to the order in which you would expect them to begin boiling. Rank from first to last. a) Hexane high altitudeb) Pentane high altitudec) Hexane sea leveld) Hexanol sea level

Electromagnets coils of wire paper clips picked up 10 3 15 6 20 9 25 12 ms. owens' class was studying magnets. ms. owens showed her students how to make an electromagnet using a nail, a d-cell battery, and plastic coated wire. the students wrapped the wire around the nail and then attached the ends to the battery. when they were finished, they tested their magnets by investigating how many paperclips their magnets could pick up. they also tested whether they could increase the strength of their electromagnets by using more coils of wire. they recorded the class average of their results in the data table seen here. ms. owens asked her students to graph their data in a line graph. how should the students label the x-axis on their line graph? a) size of battery b) number of paper clips c) number of coils of wire d) strength of electromagnet
