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!

What property of argon is uses in light bulbs?

otez555 [7]

<span>The filament of the light bulb will get very hot. This will encourage a chemical reaction with most gases that are surrounding that filament - and the result is that the filament burns out. If the filament is in air, it combines with the carbon of carbon dioxide in the air, and the filament disintegrates. But argon is an inert gas - almost nothing reacts with it. So the filament takes a very long time (theoretically infinity) to burn out. But the bulb cannot contain 100% argon: 99.9% is typical; the remaining 0.1% being air. The bulb manufacturers can control the 'life' of a bulb, based on that principle: they do not want their bulbs to last forever!</span>

Using Dimensional Analysis

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 1.00 × 10²⁴ atoms Mn

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Numer

[PT] Molar Mass of Mn - 54.94 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 1.00 \cdot 10^{24} \ atoms \ Mn(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mn}{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ Mn})(\frac{54.94 \ g \ Mn}{1 \ mol \ Mn})$
[DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 91.2321 \ g \ Mn$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

91.2321 g Mn ≈ 91.2 g Mn

What is one substance that is 100x more acidic than baking soda

daser333 [38]

Answer:

An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this, when an acid is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is shifted. Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution. This kind of solution is acidic.
