During the first half of the 20th century, the theory of plate tectonics was developed. Evidence supporting this theory included

Wegener's mapping of the supercontinent Pangaea, the US Navy's discovery of paleomagnetic reversals, and evidence of sea floor spreading. What is the MOST recent evidence supporting plate tectonics? A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements B) mapping earthquake epicenters with seismic technology C) sending probes deep into Earth's interior D) radioactive dating of fossil evidence

A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics is the use of  GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements.

GPS denotes Global Positioning Systems.

Satellite imagery is a recent advancement in the study of moving plates.

  • The global positioning system uses the position of a system of satellites in space to delineate positions on earth.
  • It works on the principles of triangulation and this helps to fix positions of objects on the earth surface.
  • With this, the change in position of the plates can be recorded by known fixed positions of objects.
  • Satellite imagery helps to map changes in terrain with time.
  • Images can be correlated through time and the shift in terrains delineated.

Calculate the ph of a 0.005 m solution of potassium oxide k2o
Alecsey [184]
First, we have to see how K2O behaves when it is dissolved in water:

K2O + H20 = 2 KOH

According to reaction K2O has base properties, so it forms a hydroxide in water.
For the reaction next relation follows:

c(KOH) : c(K2O) = 1 : 2

So,

c(KOH)= 2 x c(K2O)= 2 x 0.005 = 0.01 M = c(OH⁻)

Now we can calculate pH:

pOH= -log c(OH⁻) = -log 0.01 = 2

pH= 14-2 = 12

A sample of iron with a mass of 200g releases 9840 cal when it freezes at it’s freezing point. What is the molar heat of fusion
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:-

2747.7 Cal mol -1

Explanation:-

Molar heat of Fusion is defined as the amount of heat necessary to melt (or freeze) 1 mole of a substance at its melting point.

Atomic mass of Iron = 55.845 g mol-1

Mass of Iron = 200 g

Number of moles of Iron = 200 g / (55.845 g mol-)

= 3.581 moles

Heat released = 9840 Cal

Molar heat of Fusion = Heat released / Number of moles

= 9840 Cal / 3.581 moles

= 2747.7 Cal mol -1
