The continental crust, or the crust that lies beneath the continents, usually ranges from around 30 to 45 kilometers thick. These thicknesses are found on most continents and are dependent on height above sea level and mountainous regions. Although there are rare areas that exceed 70 kilometers thick, according to the United States Geological Survey, or USGS, less than 10 percent of the total area of the Earth's crust exceeds 50 kilometers thick.

Thicknesses below 30 kilometers are typically only found under the ocean and are called oceanic crust. The thinnest sections of the crust are only approximately five kilometers thick, which is a small fraction of the thickness of the thickest parts of the continental crust. The thickness of oceanic crust is difficult to estimate by looking only at proximity to continents or latitude since the crust varies greatly from coast to coast and everywhere in between. For example, along the eastern coast of the United States, the oceanic crust ranges from 10 to 30 kilometers thick, according to the USGS.

How many atoms are in 8.66 moles of barium? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
yarga [219]

Answer:

52.15 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 8.66 mol

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

8.66 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms / 1mol

52.15 × 10²³ atoms

Which of these statements best compares the pair of line segments with the vertex?
liraira [26]

The line segment is describe  as a line which joints two points. The word segment is denotes the end points of the line. The symbol of the line segment is AB. This symbol is indicating a line from the point A to the point B.

  • Generally, the line segment has two endpoints. The meeting point of two line segments is called as the vertex and also it is considered as a common endpoint on the other hand line is a straight path of points that goes on and on in two directions
  • Vertex is a point where two rays meet OR where the sides of a polygon meet OR the point where three or more edges of a solid figure meet and the angle is Formed by two rays that have the same endpoint
