Answer:

The answer is: Law of superposition

Explanation:

In geochronology, the law of superposition is a fundamental principle given by the Danish scientist Nicolas Steno.

According to this law, in an undisturbed stratigraphic sequence,<u> the youngest strata is always found on the top of the sequence,</u> and the layers present below get progressively older as we go from the top to the bottom of the sequence. Thus, <u>the oldest strata is found at the bottom of the stratigraphic sequence.</u>

4. Identify each substance in the following word equation as a reactant or a product
dolphi86 [110]

Explanation:

4.                 limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide

The reactants in this expression above is limestone

The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime

Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.

The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.

Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.

5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.

An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.

6.  Sodium salicylate is made from carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide.

The reactants are:

                  Carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide

The product is:

Compare the boiling points of 1-pentyne and 1-octyne.
Elan Coil [88]
1-pentyne consists of a carbon chain of 5 carbons one with a triple bond. 1-octyne is a carbon chain of 8 carbons with a triple bond at some point. It is known that the longer the carbon chain the higher the boiling point since more energy will be required to break the bonds between carbons. Based on this it is predicted that 1-octyne will have a higher boiling point than 1-pentyne.
