Answer: The material formed by weathering that is then eroded and deposited is called SEDIMENTS.

Explanation:

Weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down to form Sediments. There are three forces that can cause weathering of a rock they include:

- Biological weathering: example tree roots, and lichens.

- Chemical weathering: example, water, acid, or gases.

- Mechanical weathering: example, wind, rain, water freezing.

These Sediments that are generated during the course of weathering is moved from one place to another through a natural force called EROSION. The dropping of the Sediments in a new place is known as deposition. The collective effects of weathering,erosion and deposition leads to:

- landslides

-Changes in shape, size and texture of land forms.

- soil formation

- washes soil, pollutants, harmful sediments into water ways. I hope this helps, thanks.

How do you represent a shared pair of electrons when drawing the Lewis structure of a covalent bond

nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Each pair of shared electrons is a covalent bond which can be represented by a dash.

Explanation:

In a Lewis dot structure, the central atom can share electrons through bonds with the surrounding atoms, and this can look like a dash between the atoms.

Consider the following balanced equation. SiO2(s)+3C(s)→SiC(s)+2CO(g) Complete the following table, showing the appropriate numb

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

mol(SiO₂) mol(C) mol(SiC) mol(CO)

3 9 3 6

1 3 1 2

13 39 13 26

2.5 7.5 2.5 5.0

1.4 4.2 1.4 2.8

Explanation:

From the balanced equation:

SiO₂(s) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g),

It is clear that 1.0 mole of SiO₂ reacts with 3.0 moles of C to produce 1.0 mole of SiC and 2.0 moles of CO.

We can complete the table of no. of moles of each component:

1. 9.0 moles of C:

We use the triple amount of C, so we multiply the others by 3.0.

So, it will be 3.0 moles of SiO₂ with 9.0 moles of C that produce 3.0 moles of SiC and 6.0 moles of CO.

2. 1.0 mole of SiO₂:

We use the same amount of SiO₂ as in the balnced equation, so the no. of moles of other components will be the same as in the balanced equation.

So, it will be 1.0 moles of SiO₂ with 3.0 moles of C that produce 1.0 moles of SiC and 2.0 moles of CO.

3. 26.0 moles of CO:

We use the amount of CO higher by 13 times than that in the balanced equation, so we multiply the others by 13.0.

So, it will be 13.0 moles of SiO₂ with 39.0 moles of C that produce 13.0 moles of SiC and 26.0 moles of CO.

4. 7.5 moles of C:

We use the amount of C higher by 2.5 times than that in the balanced equation, so we multiply the others by 2.5.

So, it will be 2.5 moles of SiO₂ with 7.5 moles of C that produce 2.5 moles of SiC and 5.0 moles of CO.

5. 1.4 moles of SiO₂:

We use the amount of SiO₂ higher by 1.4 times than that in the balanced equation, so we multiply the others by 1.4.

So, it will be 1.4 moles of SiO₂ with 4.2 moles of C that produce 1.4 moles of SiC and 2.8 moles of CO.
