The lithosphere is the outermost sphere of the solid Earth, consisting of the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere is largely important because it is the area that the biosphere (the living things on earth) inhabit and live upon.
If it weren't for the tectonic plates of the lithosphere there would be no change on Earth. Tectonic plates shift due to convection currents lower down in the mantle, and this can cause the formation of mountains, the eruption of volcanoes, and earthquakes. While this can be devastating in the short-run, long term benefits are the formation of new plant life, the creation of new habitats and encouraging adaptation.
It is also the source of almost all of our resources, and is rich in elements like iron, aluminium, calcium, copper and magnesium, which humans have used for tools and machinery for millennia.
When the biosphere interacts with the lithosphere, organic compounds can become buried in the crust, and dug up as oil, coal or natural gas that we can use for fuels.
In combination with the atmosphere and hydrosphere (water), it provides a stable source of nutrients for botanical life, which produce glucose that higher organisms use for sustenance.
Answer:
107.3g
Explanation:Density = Mass/Volume
There are two methods either by taking the above formula and inserting the values or by using Mass = Denstiy*Volume
Here I have showed you both the ways:
1st
As Desnity is 21.46g/cm^3
Volume = 5cm^3
Let m be mass
21.46g/cm^3=m/5cm^3
Cross multiplication takes place here
21.46*5=m
107.3 =m
Therefore, mass of platinum = 107.3g
2nd
Mass = Denstiy*Volume
Density = 21.46g/cm^3
Volume = 5cm^3
m=21.46g/cm^3* 5g/cm^3
m= 107.3g
a lot of people have the misconception the nuclear energy is bad for the environment when in reality, it's one of the healthiest formats of energy for the planet; when adequately maintained, people should get more educated on the subject.
Was it the size? I thought I heard it once but I'm not really sure.
