IPS Final Exam Review ACTUAL
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
Polar Covalent Bond - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅an unequal distribution of electrons
causing Oxygen - and Hydrogen + (bc the electrons orbit the O)
Hadley Cells - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Conveyor belts of low pressure and high pressure
occurring every 30 degrees latitude
Two examples of non polar - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Both alcohol and soap are non
polar and can therefore weaken the hydrogen bond attraction
water pollution examples - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Vegetated filter strips at the edges of
paved surfaces
Residential or commercial rain gardens designed to capture and soak in stormwater.
Porous pavers, porous concrete, and porous asphalt.
Narrower streets or shared driveways.
Rain barrels and cisterns.
Green roofs.
Grassy Swales and dispersions
Detention/retention basins
Runoff - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅the more pollution the worse the runoff will because.
More grass will absorb the water.
Chemical weathering - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅The erosion or disintegration of rocks,
building materials, etc, caused by chemical reactions
Biological weathering - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Living plants and animals are capable of
breaking Large rocks into smaller rocks / sediments
SD - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅
, Hygroscopic Particles - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Particles that attract to a water molecule
Sediment - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Geologists classify sediment based on size
Condensation Nuclei - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅"cloud seeds" particles where the rain
will form.
Boulders - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅256mm
Cobble - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅64 - 256mm
Neutralization Reaction - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅when acids and bases combine in a
solution. The H+ and OH- form water while their conjugate ions form a salt. NaOH + HCI =
NaCI
Buffer - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅A salt solution that removes acid forming H= ions and
base forming OH- ions out of solution.
pH scale - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅An inverse log 10- measuring the concentration of
H+ ions in solution...how acidic a solution is. The scale goes from 0 - 14.
Acid rain - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Precipitation with a pH below 5.6
-Caused by Oxides of Sulfur and Nitrogen
-Increases solubility of metals such as Al...toxic to aquatic life
-Reacts with cementing agents like CaCO3
-Major source of Chemical weathering
Silt - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅.002 - .5mm
Lithifcation - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅sedimenttay
