All of the following cause mechanical weathering EXCEPT d. carbonic acid, which causes chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering is defined as a physical process where rocks are broken down into smaller pieces through movement, abrasion, pressure, and temperature changes. Chemical weathering, on the other hand, makes use of chemical reactions to break down rocks.

What is the difference between a pure solvent and a solution? Do they have the same physical properties?
pychu [463]

Answer:

The physical properties of a solution are different from those of the pure solvent. ... Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions of nonvolatile solutes that depend only on the number of particles present in a given amount of solution, not on the nature of those particles.

A sample of 250 g of water are heated from 40°C to 121°C, calculate the amount of heat energy absorbed.
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

the anwser isn't in the choices

Explanation:

H=MC(change of temp.)

M=mass of water=250g

C=specific heat of water = 4.186 j/g

change in temperature is 121-40= 81

H= 250x4.186x81=84766.5J

Which of the following pairs of elements is most likely to form an ionic compound?1.Nitrogen and sulfur? OR 2. Magnesium and Flu
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Magnesium and fluorine.</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Ionic compounds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.

Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.

When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).

Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.

Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.
