Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The volcanic eruptions are usually very destructive but it also has some advantages of which, one is that it makes the soil fertile in the nearby region.

During the time of the volcanic eruption, a large number of pyroclastic materials, blocks and ashes that are comprised of various gases are released, which eventually adds to the soil of the nearby areas. These materials ejected from the volcano are rich in various minerals such as oxygen, silicon, and some amount of CO₂, SO₂, and HCl which facilitates the growth of the soil and increases its productivity.

Thus, the soil around a volcanic region is much fertile.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).

Answer:

The correct statement is option c, that is, particles discharged in the air by volcanoes fall to the ground and enrich the soil.  

Explanation:

The eruptions of volcanoes lead to the dispersion of ash over the broader regions surrounding the site of eruption. On the basis of the chemistry of the magma, the ash will be comprising different concentrations of soil nutrients. While the major elements found in the magma are oxygen and silica, the eruptions also lead to the discharging of carbon dioxide, water, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen chloride.  

In supplementation, the eruptions also discharge bits of rocks like pyroxene, potolivine, amphibole, feldspar that are in turn enriched with magnesium, iron, and potassium. As an outcome, the areas which comprise huge deposits of the volcanic soil are quite fertile.

Mg(OH)2 is a slightly soluble salt what is the Ksp expressi a. [Mg2+][20H J? b. (Mg2+][OH-]2 c. [Mg2][OH-] d. [Mg2][OH-]?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

B) k_{sp} =[Mg_{aq} ]*[OH_{aq}]^{2}

Explanation:

Ksp is the solubility product constant.

For a generic chemical equation

AB_{2} = A_{aq}+2B_{aq}

The Ksp for this generic chemical equation is

k_{sp} =[A_{aq} ]*[B_{aq}]^{2}

So the Ksp fot the Mg(OH)2 is

k_{sp} =[Mg_{aq} ]*[OH_{aq}]^{2}

When are atoms considered stable?
katrin [286]

Answer:

when they have satisfied the octet rule naturally or through bonding to obtain full valence shells

Explanation:

Generally, most atoms of an element are unstable because they have a void in their electron shell to fill, hence, they need to react with other elements to fulfil this task of octet.

Octet rule states that atoms of elements engage in reactions to form compounds so they can have eight (8) valence electrons in their shell. Noble gases e.g argon, neon etc. are elements that have naturally satisfied this octet rule by possession of 8 valence electrons in their shell. Other elements that do not have this naturally becomes reactive and enter bonding with other atoms to obtain full valence shells.
