Which part of the mantle is still solid but flows like a heavy liquid

Chemistry

topjm [15]3 years ago
5 0

The Earth is composed of four different layers. Many geologists believe that as the Earth cooled the heavier, denser materials sank to the center and the lighter materials rose to the top. Because of this, the crust is made of the lightest materials (rock- basalts and granites) and the core consists of heavy metals (nickel and iron).

 

<span>The crust is the layer that you live on, and it is the most widely studied and understood. The mantle is much hotter and has the ability to flow. The Outer and Inner Cores are hotter still with pressures so great that you would be squeezed into a ball smaller than a marble if you were able to go to the center of the Earth!!!!!!</span>

How many litres (L) of oxygen at STP can be obtained from 110 g of potassium chlorate? [R=0.0821 L.atm/K.mol]
lisabon 2012 [21]
Balance the equation first:

2 KClO3 (s) ---> 2 KCl (s) + 3 O2 (g)

Moles of KClO3 =  110 / 122.5 = 0.89

Following the balanced chemical equation:
We can say moles of O2 produce =  \frac{3}{2} x moles of KClO3

So, O2 = (3 / 2) x  0.89

= 1.34 moles

So, Volume at STP = nRT / P

T = <span>273.15 K
P = 1 atm

So, V = (1.34 x 0.0821 x 273.15) / 1  =  30.2 L</span>
