7 0

Answer: The two main factors that affect how viscous lava is are the mineral content of the lava and its temperature. Lava that contains more iron and magnesium, classifying it as basaltic or mafic, has a lower viscosity than lava that has more silicates and calcium, classifying that as rhyolitic or felsic. Additionally, lava at higher temperatures flows with less viscosity than lava at lower temperatures, especially when the temperature allows some of the minerals in the lava to crystallize.

Why does the pink color, which forms at the point where NaOH comes into contact with the solution (HCl) in the flask, disappear

Novay_Z [31]

Answer is: because pH value of solution is changing.
Balanced chemical reaction: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H₂O(l).
pH of sodium hydroxide solution is above seven (basic), when solution of hydrochloric acid is added, pH slowly dropping until it became neutral solution (pH is equal seven) and that is endpoint of titration.

Liula [17]

Answer:

The answers are A) Seismograph, and B) Primary (P) Waves

Explanation:

A is one because a seismograph measures seismic waves to gauge the intensity of an earthquake, such as B, P Waves, which are the earliest waves, the ones that tell you an earthquake is coming.
