Answer:

Metamorphic rock is classified by texture and composition. The texture of a metamorphic rock can be either foliated and appear layered or banded, or non-foliated and appear uniform in texture without banding. Foliated rocks contain many different kinds of minerals, but non-foliated rocks contain only one main mineral, which contributes to their more uniform appearance. Igneous rocks are classified according to mode of occurrence, texture, mineralogy, chemical composition, and the geometry of the igneous body.

Which of the following best defines the internal energy of a system?

Anarel [89]

<span>In thermodynamics, the internal energy of a thermodynamic system, or a body with well-defined boundaries, denoted by U, or sometimes E, is the total of the kinetic energy due to the motion of molecules (translational, rotational, vibrational) and the potential energy associated with the vibrational and electric energy of atoms within molecules or crystals. It includes the energy in all the chemical bonds, and the energy of the free, conduction electrons in metals.</span>

What is the atom inventory for the following equation after it is properly balanced? ____NaOH + ____CuCl2 Imported Asset ____NaC

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Reactants: Na = 2, O = 2, H = 2, Cu = 1, Cl = 2;

Products: Na = 2, Cl = 2, Cu = 1, O = 2, H = 2

Explanation:

NaOH + CuCL2 —> NaCl + Cu(OH)2

The balanced equation can be achieved by doing the following:

There are 2 oxygen and 2 hydrogen atom on the right side. This is balanced by putting 2 in front of NaOH as shown below:

2NaOH + CuCL2 —> NaCl + Cu(OH)2

This makes Na to be unbalanced. Now to balance Na, put 2 in front of NaCl as illustrated below

2NaOH + CuCL2 —> 2NaCl + Cu(OH)2

Now the equation is balanced.

Reactants: Na = 2, O = 2, H = 2, Cu = 1, Cl = 2

Products: Na = 2, Cl = 2, Cu = 1, O = 2, H = 2

Chemical because the first thing disappeared and changed into something completely different. Because you got something new from what you started with, it is chemical.

Idk why its pumpkin spice latte but I'm not going to judge. I prefer drinking bleach.

How waves affect matter at the macroscopic and particle levels?

solmaris [256]

Reflection, refraction, and diffraction

Reflection occurs when waves bounce back from a surface that they cannot pass through. Refraction occurs when waves bend as they enter a new medium at an angle and start traveling at a different speed.
