The role mantle convection plays in plate tectonics

The rolling magma causes uneven currents in underneath the earths crust. Sort of similar to wind patterns in the sky but think of them as underground and in a much thicker fluid. Ocean currents might be a better analogy. Because of it being a much more viscous fluid, there is greater pressure buildup which can cause torsion, compression, expansion etc. when you bake a cake look how the dough underneath expands & the top crust cracks and stretches. Hope that helps.

At 25°C 12 M H202 is decomposed after 30 minutes the concentration of the H2O2 is found to be 9.5 M what is the average reaction
Bess [88]
The decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide:
2 H₂O₂(aq) →  2 H₂O(l) + O₂(g)
The order of reaction is : first order reaction.
[H₂O₂]₀ = 12 M at time = 0
[H₂O₂] = 9.5 M at time = 30 minutes
Average reaction rate = - (Δ[reactants] / Δt) 
                   = - (final reactants conc. - initial reactants conc.) / Δt
                   = - (9.5 M -12 M) / (30 min - 0 min) 
                   = 0.083 mol / L.min

What is the value of 100 ºC on the Kelvin scale? A. 100 K B. 273 K C. 373 K D. -373 K E. -300 K
insens350 [35]

Answer:

373.15 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Temperature in degree Celsius = 100°C

Temperature in kelvin scale = ?

Solution:

To convert the degree Celsius into kelvin scale we add the given  degree Celsius  into 273.15.

100°C +273.15 =  373.15 K

Go'=30.5 kJ/mol
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

a) Keq = 4.5x10^-6

b) [oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M

c) 23 oxaloacetate molecules

Explanation:

a) In the standard state we have to:

ΔGo = -R*T*ln(Keq) (eq.1)

ΔGo = 30.5 kJ/moles = 30500 J/moles

R = 8.314 J*K^-1*moles^-1

Clearing Keq:

Keq = e^(ΔGo/-R*T) = e^(30500/(-8.314*298)) = 4.5x10^-6

b) Keq = ([oxaloacetate]*[NADH])/([L-malate]*[NAD+])

4.5x10^-6 = ([oxaloacetate]/(0.20*10)

Clearing [oxaloacetate]:

[oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M

c) the radius of the mitochondria is equal to:

r = 10^-5 dm

The volume of the mitochondria is:

V = (4/3)*pi*r^3 = (4/3)*pi*(10^-15)^3 = 4.18x10^-42 L

1 L of mitochondria contains 9x10^-9 M of oxaloacetate

Thus, 4.18x10^-42 L of mitochondria contains:

molecules of oxaloacetate = 4.18x10^-42 * 9x10^-9 * 6.023x10^23 = 2.27x10^-26 = 23 oxaloacetate molecules

A powder sample weighing 250 g and having a surface area of 1 m2/g is dispersed in 1 L of water. After 10 minutes, 0.4 g of the
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a)

K = 2.64 * 10^{-8}

b)

15 \frac{5}{8} hours

Explanation:

Given

Surface Area (S) of 250 grams of powder sample = 250 square meter.

S = 2500000 square centimeter

V\frac{dC}{dT} = 0.40 grams/minute

V\frac{dC}{dT} = \frac{dM}{dT} = \frac{0.40*60}{10} = 0.66 mg per second

C_s = 0.01 gram per cubic meter = 10 mg/ml

a)

\frac{dM}{dT} = K SC_s

0.66 =  K* 2500000* 10\\

K = 2.64 * 10^{-8} cm /sec

b) Time taken

Time taken to sink

\frac{10*60}{0.4} * 37.5  = 56,250

Time in hours

15 \frac{5}{8} hours
