Answer:

A. Organic

Explanation:

Once living things have rocks that are made up of organic content as sedimentary rocks are best suited to preserve the remains of the fossils and for keeping records.

The organic sediments in rocks are formed due to the accumulation of organic debris collected from various natural sources. As there are swampy sediments that contain various carbon traces and are black, and soft.

Fossils are very important elements of depositional environment and especially trace fossils like burrows, footprints and leaf impressions, etc. Some examples of corals and other shell fossils indicate marine deposition.

If you had an aqueous mixture that contained Ag+ , K+ , and Pb2+ cations, how many different solids could precipitate if a chlor

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Two, KCl and PbCl₂.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the addition of chloride ions promote the following three ionic reactions:

$Ag^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons AgCl(s)\\\\K^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons KCl(aq)\\\\Pb^{2+}(aq)+Cl^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons PbCl_2(s)$

We can infer that both silver chloride and lead (II) chloride are precipitated products as their Ksp are 6.56x10⁻⁴ and 1.59x10⁻⁵ respectively, which means they are merely soluble in water.

Whether or not the process is observed in nature, which of the following could account for the transformation of gallium-67 to z

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Option a: positron emission.

Explanation:

In the transformation we have:

⁶⁷Ga → ⁶⁷Zn

The reaction is:

$^{67}_{Z}X \rightarrow ^{67}_{Z -1}Y$

For Ga to become Zn, the atom nucleus has to lose a proton, so in the given options, the reaction that involves the transformation of a proton is the option a, positron emission.

In a positron emission, a proton becomes into a neutron and a positron:

$^{A}_{Z}X \rightarrow ^{A}_{Z-1}Y + ^{0}_{+1}e$

Therefore, the correct answer is option a: positron emission.

I hope it helps you!

never [62]

The temperature of the gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy of its molecules. Faster moving particles will collide with the container walls more frequently and with greater force. This causes the force on the walls of the container to increase and so the pressure increases.
