A fault cuts across several layers of rock. Which conclusion can be made?(1 point)

Chemistry
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The fault is younger than the layers of rock, according to the law of crosscutting.

Explanation:

Then Law of Crosscutting which was described by James Hutton explains that whenever a fault is seen on a rock, the fault will always be younger than the rock it is one.

This makes sense because if there was no rock in the first place, the fault would not have cut through it. But because there was a rock and an object exacted a force in order to move through the rock, the fault appeared showing that the rock came first, then came the fault.

In one or two sentences, explain why the combined weight of several liquids mixed in an open flask can be less than but never mo
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Liquids in a form of mixture has less weight as compared to sum of all liquid's weight due to release of gases.

The combined weights of several liquids mixed in an open flask be less than the sum of all the weights of the liquids because when the reaction occurs new products are formed and also some gases which releases in the atmosphere.

These gases also contribute in the weight of the product so when it is released the weight of the mixture of liquids are less than the sum of the weights of all liquids so we can conclude that liquids in a form of mixture has less weight as compared to sum of all liquid's weight.

Determine the volume in liters occupied by 22.6 g of I2 gas at STP.
AleksandrR [38]

 The volume in liters  occupied  by 22.6 g  of I₂  gas  at STP  is  1.99 L (answer A)

 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

Step: find the  moles of I₂

moles= mass÷  molar mass

from  periodic table the  molar mass  of I₂  is  253.8 g/mol

moles = 22.6 g÷253.8 g/mol =0.089 moles

Step 2:find the volume  of I₂  at STP

At STP  1  moles =22.4 L

         0.089 moles= ? L

<em>by cross  multiplication</em>

={ (0.089 moles x 22.4 L) /1 mole} = 1.99 L
