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.

In order for an atom to be neutral (i.e. have no charge), it must have the same number of ______ as it has protons. a. neutrons
Marina CMI [18]

Answer : The correct option is, (b) There is a same number of electrons.

Explanation :

For the neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons are equal. But, they are unequal when the atoms present in the form of ions or the atom has some charges.

When an unequal number of electrons and protons then it leads to the formation of ionic species.

Ion : An ion is formed when an atom looses or gains electron.

When an atom looses electrons, it will form a positive ion known as cation.

When an atom gains electrons, it will form a negative ion known as anion.

For example : The neutral atom Mg has equal number of protons and electrons i.e 12 but Mg^{2+} ion has unequal number of protons and electrons that means it has 12 number of protons and 10 number of electrons.

Hence, the correct option is, (B) electrons

Pyridoxine contains 11 hydrogen atoms, 8 carbon atoms, 3 oxygen atoms, and 1 nitrogen atom. what is the chemical formula for pyr
FinnZ [79.3K]
Pyridoxine contains 11 hydrogen atoms, 8 carbon atoms, 3 oxygen atoms, and 1 nitrogen atom. The chemical formula would be C8H11NO3. A chemical formula of a substance tells the number of atoms of the elements that is involved in the compound. Pyrodoxine is commonly known as vitamin B6. It is mostly found in food like meat, whole grains, nuts and avocados. Also, it is can be present in dietary supplements. It has a number of important functions in the body. Dietary supplements are manufactured to prevent vitamin B6 deficiency. Also, it is used in treating a specific type of anemia or the lack of red blood cells.

What is the boiling point of a 0.75-molal solution of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute in water? Kb for water = 0.52 degree
AVprozaik [17]
Take the molality and multiply it by the Kb
0.75 × 0.52 = 0.39 C

then add the boiling pt to the 0.39
100 + 0.39 = 100.39 C
