Answer: A. Frequent earthquakes may occur volcanic activity may be common.

When the plates of the continents and oceans collides, the thin and dense oceanic plate submerged under the thick and less dense continental plate. This process is called as subduction. As the oceanic plate submerged down the earth crust it is exposed to the hot magma. The melting of the subducted plate occurs and this results in the high intensity volcanic eruption and frequent earthquakes.

64g of sulfur dioxide (SO2) contains 32g of oxygen. Calculate how much sulfur it contains?

KengaRu [80]

Mass of SO2 = mass of sulfur+ mass of oxygen
⇒ 64 g= mass of sulfur+ 32 g
⇒ mass of sulfur= 64 g-32 g
⇒ mass of sulfur= 32 g.

There is 32 g of sulfur in 64 g of SO2~

Why was there so much disagreements among the ancient greeks about the nature of the atoms?

olga2289 [7]

It is because in that time science was not established. This is, the experimentation to test hypotheses, which is a fundamental part of the scientific method, was not applied.

Atoms can not be seen, then they could only reflect or philosophize on this matter. This method is not able to give good answers to so complicated scientific matters.

Bromine is less electronegative than chlorine, yet methyl bromide and methyl chloride have very similar dipole moments. why? sel

diamong [38]

Bromine is less electronegative than chlorine, yet methyl bromide and methyl chloride have very similar dipole moments. This is because the bond distance in methyl bromide is more due to the large size of bromine atom.
Dipole moment is calculated by multiplying the charge on the atom with the bond distance.
