What types of rock make up the continental crust?

1 answer:

7 0

There are two types of rocks that make up the continental crust "sedimentary and metamorphic rocks." Sedimentary rocks are formed with pressure and compaction, and metamorphic rocks are made with heat and pressure. The earth's crust itself is made up of sedimentary rocks because they are mainly found a little under earths crust same goes with metamorphic rocks.

Hope this helps!

If you have an aqueous solution that contains 1.5 moles of hcl, how many moles of ions are in the solution? (a) 1.0, (b) 1.5, (c

Darya [45]

If you have an aqueous solution that contains 1.5 moles of HCl, the number of moles of ions in the solution is 3.0 moles.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Strong acids </h3>

Strong acids are types of acids that undergo complete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
Examples of such acids are, HCl, H2SO4 and HNO3
Dissociation of HCl

HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

<h3>Weak acids </h3>

Weak acids are types of acids that undergo incomplete dissociation to form ions when dissolved in water.
Examples of such acids are acetic acids and formic acids.
Dissociation of acetic acid

H₃COOH ⇔ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺; CH₃COO⁻ is a conjugate base of acetic acid.

HCl which is a strong acid that ionizes completely according to the equation;

HCl + H₂O ⇔ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

From the equation, 1 mole of HCl produces 1 mole of H₃O⁺ ions and 1 mole of OH⁻ ions.

Therefore;

1.5 moles of HCl will produce;

= 1.5 moles of H₃O⁺ ions and 1.5 moles of OH⁻ ions.

This gives a total number ions of;

= 1.5 + 1.5

= 3 moles of ions

What is the percent by mass of nahco3 in a solution containing 10 g of nahco3 dissolved in 400 ml of h2o?

Marat540 [252]

Answer is: the percent by mass of NaHCO₃ is 2,43%.
m(NaHCO₃) = 10 g.
V(H₂O) = 400 ml.
d(H₂O) = 1 g/ml.
m(H₂O) = V(H₂O) · d(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 400 ml · 1 g/ml.
m(H₂O) = 400 g.
m(solution) = m(H₂O) + m(NaHCO₃).
m(solution) = 400 g + 10 g.
m(solution) = 410 g.
ω(NaHCO₃) = 10 g ÷ 410 g · 100%.
ω(NaHCO₃) = 2,43 %

a sample of 3.00 g of so2 (g)originally in a 5.00 L vesselat 21 degee Celsius is transferred to a 10.0 L vessel at 26 degree Cel

eimsori [14]

Answer:

1) The partial pressure of SO₂ gas in the larger container = 0.115 atm.

2) The partial pressure of N₂ gas in the larger container = 0.206 atm.

3) The total pressure in the vessel = 0.321 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the partial pressure of each gas, we can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the partial pressure of the gas in atm,

V is the volume of the vessel in L,

n is the no. of moles of the gas,

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K),

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

<u><em>1) What is the partial pressure of SO₂ gas in the larger container?</em></u>

n = mass/molar mass = (3.0 g)/(64.066 g/mol) = 0.047 mol.

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K.

T = 26 °C + 273.15 = 299.15 K.

V = 10.0 L. (The volume of the new container)

∴ P = nRT/V = (0.047 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(299.15 K)/(10.0 L) = 0.115 atm.

<u><em>2) What is the partial pressure of N₂ gas in the larger container?</em></u>

n = mass/molar mass = (2.35 g)/(28.0 g/mol) = 0.084 mol.

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K.

T = 26 °C + 273.15 = 299.15 K.

V = 10.0 L. (The volume of the new container)

∴ P = nRT/V = (0.084 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(299.15 K)/(10.0 L) = 0.206 atm.

<u><em>3) What is the total pressure in the vessel?</em></u>

According to Dalton's law the total pressure exerted is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

<em>∵ The total pressure in the vessel = the partial pressure of SO₂ + the partial pressure of N₂.</em>

∴ The total pressure in the vessel = 0.115 + 0.206 = 0.321 atm.

Is a cube of salt being crushed before being stirred into water a physical or chemical change

Olin [163]

By crushing the salt, you are performing a physical change because you aren't altering the chemical makeup of the salt, just the physical form. Hope this helps! :)

When a substance such as ice melts, its temperature increases. Describe what happens to the arrangement of the water molecules a

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The molecules absorb heat and acquire more kinetic energy.

Explanation:

In a solid, the solids only vibrate about their mean positions but do not translate. When energy is supplied to the molecule in the form of heat, the molecules vibrate faster. Eventually, they acquire sufficient energy to leave their mean positions and translate. Hence the solid crystal collapses.

When ice is heated, water molecules acquire sufficient kinetic energy to translate. The intermolecular bonds are gradually broken in the solid framework as heat is absorbed. The heat required for this is known as the latent heat of fusion.

The temperature remains constant until phase transition is over, then temperature rise resumes.
