The correct term for each statement is as follows;

Caves being formed by acid rain dissolving underground limestone - weathering
Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers - deposition
Glaciers scraping rocks across the earth’s surface - erosion
Rocks being made smooth by tumbling across a stream bed - weathering
Ponds filling up with sediment and becoming marshes - deposition

<h3>What is weathering?</h3>

Weathering in geology is the mechanical or chemical breaking down of rocks in situ by weather or other causes. options 7 and 14 are the case in this scenario as there is a breakdown of limestone and rocks.

Erosion is the result of having been worn away or eroded, as by a glacier on rock or the sea on a cliff face. Agents of erosion are water, ice or wind. Options 12 is an example of erosion because glaciers are wearing off rocks.

Deposition is the laying down of sediment carried by wind, flowing water, the sea or ice. Sediment can be transported as pebbles, sand and mud, or as salts dissolved in water. Options 8 and 15 are examples of deposition.

You have 100 mL of a solution of benzoic acid in water; the amount of benzoic acid in the solution is estimated to be about 0.30

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.00370 g

Explanation:

From the given information:

To determine the amount of acid remaining using the formula: $\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{(initial \ mass \ of \ solute )_{water}} = (\dfrac{v_2}{v_1+v_2\times k_d})^n$

where;

v_1 = volume of organic solvent = 20-mL

n = numbers of extractions = 4

v_2 = actual volume of water = 100-mL

k_d = distribution coefficient = 10

∴

$\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +20 \ ml \times 10})^4$

$\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +200 \ ml})^4$

$\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{1}{3})^4$

$\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = 0.012345$

Thus, the final amount of acid left in the water = 0.012345 * 0.30

= 0.00370 g

I need help with this plz help

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

$\rm ^{103}_{\phantom{1}40}Zr$ , zirconium-103.

Explanation:

In a nuclear reaction, both the mass number and atomic number will conserve.

Let $^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X}$ represent the unknown particle.

The mass number of a particle is the number on the upper-left corner. The atomic number of a particle is the number on its lower-left corner under the mass number. For example, for the particle $^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X}$ , $A$ is the mass number while $Z$ while $Z$ is the atomic number.

Sum of mass numbers on the left-hand side of the equation:

$\underbrace{239}_{^{239}_{\phantom{2}94}\mathrm{Pu}} + \underbrace{1}_{^{1}_{0}\mathrm{n}} = 240$ .

Note that there are three neutrons on the right-hand side of the equation. Sum of mass numbers on the right-hand side:

$\underbrace{A}_{^{A}_{Z}\mathrm{X}} + \underbrace{134}_{^{134}_{\phantom{2}54}\mathrm{Xe}} + \underbrace{3\times 1}_{3\;^{1}_{0}\mathrm{n}} = A + 137$ .

Mass number conserves. As a result,

$A + 137 = 240$ .

Solve this equation for $A$ :

$A = 103$ .

Among the five choices, the only particle with a mass number of 103 is $\rm ^{103}_{\phantom{1}40}Zr$ . Make sure that atomic number also conserves.
