Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleksandr [31]4 years ago
6 0

Answer: The difference is what it  forms

2 continental plates: mountains

2 oceanic plates: island arcs (some may contain volcanoes)

Explanation:

- The continental crust buckles up and rocks pile up, creating mountains.

- Because two oceanic plates have equal densities, when they collide, the younger plate will force the older plate downwards (this is called subduction.) then the older plate being forced downwards will melt and the molten materials build up causing a lot of pressure upward, forcing its way to the surface. Once the molten materials meet with the water, it begins to cool forming island arcs.

What is an example of a scope three carbon emission?
MAXImum [283]

Production of materials and transportation are the examples of three carbon emission.

Extraction and production of purchased materials and transportation of purchased fuels are the examples of three carbon emission. Scope 3 emissions refers to all indirect emissions that occur in the chain of the reporting company that is included in both upstream and downstream emissions.

Big machineries are used for the production and extraction of materials as well as the transportation requires fossil fuels for working which releases carbondioxide gas in the atmosphere so we can conclude that production of materials and transportation are the examples of three carbon emission.

Given a condensed structural formula, write a line-angle formula for (CH3)2CHCH(CH3)2
Vlada [557]

Answer : The line-angle formula for (CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2 is shown below.

Explanation :

Condensed structural formula : It is a formula in which the lines are used between the bonded atoms and the atoms are also shown in the structural formula.

Line-angle formula : In the line-angle formula, the carbon atoms are represented at the corner and ends of the lines with some angle and the hydrogen atoms are hidden.

The line-angle formula for (CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2 is shown below.
