Hydrothermal metamorphism involves chemical reactions between oceanic lithosphere and warm fluids near mid-ocean ridges

Hydrothermal metamorphism is most common along mid-ocean ridge spreading centers, where warm seawater percolates through hot, cracked basalt. Metamorphism of basalt occurs as a result of chemical interactions between hot saltwater and basalt. On continents, crustal rocks can be metamorphosed by invading, hot fluids associated with igneous intrusions, resulting in hydrothermal metamorphism.

The interaction of a rock with a high-temperature fluid of changing composition results in hydrothermal metamorphism. The compositional mismatch between an existing rock and the entering fluid causes a series of metamorphic and metasomatic processes.

Hydrothermal metamorphism changes Mg-Fe-rich hydrous minerals like talc, chlorite, serpentine, actinolite, tremolite, zeolites, and clay minerals. Hydrothermal metamorphism is frequently responsible for the formation of rich ore deposits.

Think of a situation where "particle motion" is a blessing in disguise for the entire humanity.
valkas [14]
The concept of particle motion, not just a "blessing in disguise" but a significant concept in which humanity must learn about. The theory of particle motion simply states that "the particles which comprise matter, are constantly moving." For example in the application of aerosol sprays, particle motion is important because the aerosol particles would constantly disperse instead of being in a single position.

Predict the shape and hybridization of platinum tetrachloride (PfCl4)​
guapka [62]

Answer:

Shape- square planar , hybridisation-sp3

Explanation:

Shape:

  1. VSPER theorey is used to determine both electron geometry and molecular geometry of a molecule.(PtCl4)2 molecular geometry is square planar
  2. Hybridisation:It undergoes sp3 hybridisation.since there are 2 unpaired electrons in this case, it is paramagnetic in nature

The specific heat capacity of titanium is 0.523j/g c what is the heat capacity of 2.3g of titanium
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

1.2029 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat capacity of titanium = 0.523 J/g.°C

Specific heat capacity of 2.3 gram of titanium = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

1 g of titanium have 0.523 J/g.°C specific heat capacity

2.3  × 0.523 J/g.°C

1.2029 J/g.°C
