Yes, The tectonic plates are always moving and interacting today. The continents are still moving today. Because sometimes of the most dynamic sites of tectonic activity are seafloor spreading zones and giant rift valleys.

The volume (in L) that would be occupied by 5.00 mols of 02 at STP is
crimeas [40]

Answer : The volume of oxygen at STP is 112.0665 L

Solution : Given,

The number of moles of O_2 = 5 moles

At STP, the temperature is 273 K and pressure is 1 atm.

Using ideal gas law equation :

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas

V = volume of gas

n = the number of moles

T = temperature of gas

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mole K   (Given)

By rearranging the above ideal gas law equation, we get

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get the value of volume.

V=\frac{(5moles)\times (0.0821Latm/moleK)\times (273K)}{1atm}=112.0665L

Therefore, the volume of oxygen at STP is 112.0665 L

Describe what happens when a bond is created between magnesium and bromine. Be specific and explain in terms of electrons.
Allushta [10]

Answer: Magnesium and Bromine/MgBr2 = Ionic compounds

Explanation: When atoms form together they can form between Ionic Compounds and molecules; this could depend on if they're joined by Covalent bonds as well because when atoms form with Covalent bonds, it forms Molecules.

On the basis of the Ksp values below, what is the order of the solubility from least soluble to most soluble for these compounds
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Explanation:

The solubility constant give us the molar solubilty of ionic compounds. In general for a compound AB the ksp will be given by:

Ksp = (A) (B) where A and B are the molar solubilities = s²  (for compounds with 1:1  ratio).

It follows then  that the higher the value of Ksp the greater solubilty of the compound if we are comparing compounds with the same ionic ratios:

Comparing AgBr: Ksp = 5.4 x 10⁻¹³ with AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰, AgCl will be more soluble.

Comparing Ag2CO3: Ksp = 8.0 x 10⁻¹²  with AgCl Ksp = AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ we have the complication of  the ratio of ions 2:1 in Ag2CO3,  so the answer is not obvious. But since we know that

Ag2CO3 ⇄ 2 Ag⁺ + CO₃²₋

Ksp Ag2CO3  = 2s x s = 2 s² =  8.0 x 10-12

s = 4 x 10⁻12 ∴ s= 2 x 10⁻⁶

And for AgCl

AgCl  ⇄ Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

Ksp = s² = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰  ∴ s = √ 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰   = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵

Therefore, AgCl is more soluble than Ag₂CO₃

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

An atom has the following electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 . How many valence electrons does this Atom have
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.
