Dr. Patel and her team have been using GPS to track two plates that are moving toward each

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andru [333]3 years ago
7 0

C: One plate is going underneath the other plate and sinking into the soft rock below.

Explanation:

Where plates are moving towards each other they are said to converging, and are called convergent margins.

The lithosphere is broken into series of slabs called plates. The plates moves on the weak and relatively soft asthenosphere below.

Plates have different motion. At some places, they move apart and they are said to be divergent.

When plates moves towards each other, they are convergent. At a convergent margin, a plate collides with another thereby causing the denser plate usually the oceanic plate to subduct into the asthenosphere. In some other cases, the plates can collide and build upward.

How many alkali metals will combine with 1 oxygen family member
Daniel [21]
The alkali metals are so reactive that they are never found in nature in elemental form. Although some of their ores are abundant, isolating them from their ores is somewhat difficult. For these reasons, the group 1 elements were unknown until the early 19th century, when Sir Humphry Davy first prepared sodium (Na) and potassium (K) by passing an electric current through molten alkalis. (The ashes produced by the combustion of wood are largely composed of potassium and sodium carbonate.) Lithium (Li) was discovered 10 years later when the Swedish chemist Johan Arfwedson was studying the composition of a new Brazilian mineral. Cesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) were not discovered until the 1860s, when Robert Bunsen conducted a systematic search for new elements. Known to chemistry students as the inventor of the Bunsen burner, Bunsen’s spectroscopic studies of ores showed sky blue and deep red emission lines that he attributed to two new elements, Cs and Rb, respectively. Francium (Fr) is found in only trace amounts in nature, so our knowledge of its chemistry is limited. All the isotopes of Fr have very short half-lives, in contrast to the other elements in group 1.

How many molecules are in 100 g of C6H120,?*​
Grace [21]

Answer:

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 100 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of C₆H₁₂O₆:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 100 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.56 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.56 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Why is an alkali metal element like sodium (Na) so reactive?
guapka [62]
Alkali metals are known for being some of the most reactive metals. This is due in part to their larger atomic radii and low ionization energies. They tend to donate their electrons in reactions and often have an oxidation state of +1. These metals are characterized as being extre
