Answer:

Climate change and an increase in unpredictable and extreme weather is a growing challenge. Long periods of drought affect clean water supplies while flooding can pollute clean water sources and cause outbreaks of disease.

Give explanations for the large drops in melting point from C to Si and from Ge to Sn.
____ [38]

As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.

Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.

Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.

Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.

The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.

Please help.This is due tomorrow.It's worth 2 grades.Please help.God bless u.Please and thankyou so much.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1. False - compression

2. True

3. False - transform faults

4. False - horizontally

5. True

6. False- perpendicular

7. False - away from

8. False - increase

9. True

10. True

Explanation:

1. Mountains, oceanic trenches, and rift valleys are created by tension and compression stress. They are formed by divergent and convergent boundaries. Compression stress occurs when plates are pushing against each other, while tension stress occurs when the plates are pulling away from each other.

**Shear stress happens when the plates grind against each other. Often found in transform boundaries.

2. Transform faults happen when two plates glide or slide against each other. These areas are called transform boundaries. Transform faults occur in the ocean. When these boundaries are formed on land, they are called strike-slip faults.

3. Shear stress that occur in transform boundaries produce transform faults. These faults are usually identified by long faults and ridges. Sometimes small ponds form in the cracks due to deposition.

*** Rift valleys are produced by divergent boundaries or tension stress, when the plates are pulled apart.

4. Transform boundaries are formed when two plates slides against each other. Transform faults are formed in these boundaries and the movement of the plates are horizontal.

*** They do not move vertically.

5-6. Mid-oceanic ridges are segmented or divided by transform faults. The transform faults in the mid-oceanic ridges are perpendicular to the oceanic ridges. They separate them into distinct segments and can run across for hundreds of kilometers

7. New faults form as they move away from the ridges. Mid oceanic ridges are formed when the plates move apart, pushing the seafloor outwards and along with that, the transform faults. When new crust however overlaps the transform fault, they stop moving against each other, and start moving side by side, creating a crack.

8. Transform faults increase in size as long as the plates continue to move. The areas of transform faults, especially in the surface create earthquake faults.

9. Faults at the surface can be part of a larger underground system. Some faults can cut across continental crusts. These faults are created by different geological processes, like compression stress from convergent boundaries, tension stress from divergent boundaries, and shear stress from transform boundaries.

10. Fault zones are areas where you can find different faults formed, relatively close to each other. The faults in fault zones can be shallow or deeper like the fault zone Sierra Madre.

Hydrogenation reactions, in which H2 and an "unsaturated" organic compound combine, are used in the food, fuel, and polymer indu
ddd [48]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of C_2H_6 = 12 kg = 12000 g    (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{12000g}{30g/mol}=400mol

The chemical reaction for hydrogenation of ethene follows the equation:

C_2H_4+H_2\rightarrow C_2H_6

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 1 mole of ethane releases 140 kJ of heat.

So, 400 moles of ethane will release = \frac{140}{1}\times 400=56000kJ of heat.

Converting this into Mega joules, using the conversion factor:

1 MJ = 1000 kJ

So, \Rightarrow 56000kJ\times (\frac{1MJ}{1000kJ})=56MJ

Hence, the amount of heat released is 56 MJ.
