It might be physical forces
erica [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When big rocks are broken down into smaller rocks due to the natural processes then this process of breaking is known as mechanical weathering.

Mechanical weathering is also known as physical weathering. It arises due to physical forces caused by rainwater and change in temperature etc.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, physical forces is the cause of mechanical weathering.

What ions will form when baking soda is dissolved in water?
ad-work [718]

Answer:When you add baking powder to water or milk, the alkali and the acidreact with one another and produce carbon dioxide – the bubbles. Sodium bicarbonate is a weak base which is commonly known as baking soda and used in cooking. It weakly ionizes in water: NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + (OH-) + (Na+). u need to stop deleteing my answers ughh

A large cyclotron directs a beam of He++ nuclei onto a target with a beam current of 0.250 mA. (a) How many He++ nuclei per seco
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a. 7.8*10¹⁴ He⁺⁺ nuclei/s

b. 4000s

c. 7.7*10⁸s

Explanation:

I = 0.250mA = 2.5 * 10⁻³A

Q = 1.0C

1 e- contains 1.60 * 10⁻¹⁹C

But He⁺⁺ Carrie's 2 charge = 2 * 1.60*10⁻¹⁹C = 3.20*10⁻¹⁹C

(A).

No. Of charge per second = current passing through / charge

1 He⁺⁺ = 2.50 * 10⁻⁴ / 3.2*10⁻¹⁹C

1 He⁺⁺ = 7.8 * 10¹⁴ He⁺⁺ nuclei

(B).

I = Q / t

From this equation, we can determine the time it takes to transfer 1.0C

I = 1.0 / 2.5*10⁻⁴ = 4000s

(C).

Time it takes for 1 mol of He⁺⁺ to strike the target =?

Using Avogadro's ratio,

1.0 mole of He = (6.02 * 10²³ ions/mol ) * (1 / 7.81*10¹⁴ He ions)

Note : ions cancel out leaving the value of the answer in mols.

1.0 mol of He = 7.7 * 10⁸s

The density of nitric oxide (NO) gas at 0.866 atm and 46.2 degrees celcius is ____ g/L
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

 d = 0.992 g/L

Explanation:

Data Given:

Pressure of nitric oxide (NO) = 0.866 atm

Temperature of a gas = 46.2° C

Convert the temperature to kelvin = 46.2° C + 273  

temperature in kelvin = 319.2 K

density of nitric oxide (NO) = ?

Solution:

Density of a gas can be calculated by

                       d = PM /RT

Where

d = density

P = Pressure

M = molar mass of gas

R = ideal gas constant  = 0.0821 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

T = temperature

So,

Molar mass of NO = 30 g/mol

Put values in the formula:

                        d = PM /RT

           d = 0.866 atm × 30 g/mol / 0.0821 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ × 319.2 K

           d = 25.98 atm. g/mol / 26.2 L atm mol⁻¹

           d = 0.992 g/L

Explain why rain water is not pure
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

before it evaporated into the air, it was on the Earth...and it could have been contaminated/dirtied. There isn't a process during evaporation that cleans water...you have to purify it yourself.
