This is because some Richer scales are programed or made differently in the factory therefore effecting ones ability to scale an Earth Quake

The Richter scale tells the amount of force that is needed to create the waves and that is used in the moment magnitude scale.
It's kind of like measuring the weight of an object to find the density, it isn't all the information you need.

Which is the best reason for choosing the beaker for heating the solution? The beaker is the only container that can withstand h
lyudmila [28]

Answer: The beaker will not tip over when placed on the hot plate


Justification:


Since beakers have flat surface bottoms (usually and this is the condition to use them for this particular application) they can be placed safely on the hot plate without the risk that the they tip over.


Beakers are wide mouth cylindrical vessels used in laboratories to store, mix and heat liquids. Most are made of glass, in which case the glass is resistant to the flame and does not break when exposed to high temperatures or when is heated by direct contact on a hot plate.


So, their safe shape (flat bottom) that makes them stable, along with their ability to withstand high temperatures, make them suitable to heat solutions in laboratories.

An interpenetrating primitive cubic structure like that of CsCl with anions in the corners has an edge length of 664 pm. If the
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

the ionic radius of the anion r^- = 312.52 \ pm

Explanation:

From the diagram shown below :

The anion Cl^- is located at the corners

The cation Cs^+ is located at the body center

The Body diagonal length =  \sqrt{3 \ a }

∴ 2 \ r^+ \ + 2r^- \ = \sqrt{3 \ a}  \\ \\ r^+ +r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} a

Given that :

\frac{r^+}{r^-} =0.84   (i.e the  ratio of the ionic radius of the cation to the ionic radius of

                 the anion )

0.84r^- \ + r^- \ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a  \\ \\  1.84 r^- = \frac{3}{2}a \\ \\ r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2*1.84}a

Also ; a =  664 pm

Then :

r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2*1.84}*664 \ pm\\ \\ r^- = 312.52 \ pm

Therefore,  the ionic radius of the anion r^- = 312.52 \ pm
