Why do California and Peru both have large deposits of gold?

Chemistry

irinina [24]4 years ago
3 0
Both California and Peru have or have had significant gold deposits because of their proximity to where two tectonic plate boundaries meet. Off the California coast there is the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate which meet at the San Andreas Fault but there also is the Farallon Plate which apparently has subducted somewhat below the North American Plate. Off Peru, the Nazca Plate is subducting under the South American Plate and which has caused the Andean orogeny.

Battery acid has a density of 1.285 g/mL and contains 38.0% sulfuric acid by mass. The car battery contains 1.45 L of battery ac
larisa86 [58]

Answer: 708.2 grams

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per Liter of the solution.

Given : 38 g of H_2SO_4 is dissolved in 100 g of solution.

Density of solution = 1.285 g/ml

Volume of solution = \frac{mass}{density}=\frac{100g}{1.285g/ml}=77.8ml

Thus if 77.8 ml of H_2SO_4 contains = 38 g of H_2SO_4

1.45L= 1450 ml of H_2SO_4 contains = \frac{38}{77.8}\times 1450=708.2 g of H_2SO_4

Therefore, the mass of the sulfuric acid in a car battery is 708.2 g

However, they are use for  a specific purpose which is to show the relationship between two parameters. In this case, the correlation between pH and the percent of samples.
