Scientists use tectonics plates to understand the plates moving beneath the volcano.

<h3>What are tectonic plates?</h3>

According to the widely recognized scientific hypothesis known as plate tectonics, the Earth's lithosphere is made up of many sizable tectonic plates that have been steadily moving for nearly 3.4 billion years. Our globe would look drastically different if it weren't for plate tectonics. We have a stable climate, mineral and oil deposits, and oceans with a chemical balance that supports life thanks to the continuous recycling of the Earth's crust. Even now, every few hundred million years, it offers evolution a boost. The plates fit tightly against one another and sit on the heated, molten rock of the Earth's mantle like fragments of a broken shell. The plates move as a result of the heat produced by nuclear processes occurring inside the planet.

Base your answer on the information below and your knowledge of chemistry. Methanol can be manufactured by a reaction that is re
Rudiy27

Explanation:

For the given reaction:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

CO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_3OH(g)

Rate=k[CO]^x[H_2]^y

where x and y are order wrt to CO and H_2

According to collision theory , the molecules must collide for a reaction to take place. According to collision theory , the rate of a reaction is proportional to rate of collision of reactants.

Thus with an increase in concentration of reactants , the rate of reaction also increases. This is because if the concentration of reactants increases , the chances of collision between molecules also increases and thus more products wil be formed which in turn increases the rate of reaction.

What is the chemical equation for the alpha decay of erbium-144
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Er-144 -------> Dy-140 + He-4

Explanation:

Alpha decay is the release of a hydrogen nucleus.  So the original atom will decrease the mass by 4 and the atomic number by 2.

Determine whether each melting point observation corresponds to a pure sample of a single compound or to an impure sample with m
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Wide melting point range - impure sample with multiple compounds

Experimental melting point is close to literature value - pure sample of a single compound

Experimental melting point is below literature value - impure sample with multiple compounds

Narrow melting point range - pure sample of a single compound

Explanation:

The melting point of substances are easily obtainable from literature such as the CRC Handbook of Physics and Chemistry.

A single pure substance is always observed to melt within a narrow temperature range. This melting temperature is always very close to the melting point recorded in literature for the pure compound.

However, an impure sample with multiple compounds will melt over a wide temperature range. We also have to recall that impurities lower the melting point of a pure substance. Hence, the experimental melting point of an impure sample with multiple compounds is always below the literature value.
