What geologic action may produce a chain of volcanic islands

Chemistry
2 answers:
Vaselesa [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a hot spot

Explanation:

Volcanic island chains are formed independently of the movements of tectonic plates. They are found above the hot spots caused by the mantle. Currents of hot materials from the mantle pierce a path through the crust, creating a chain of hot spot volcanoes. They form volcanoes that produce highly fluid lava that build the flat volcanoes of the shield. Example: Mauna loa, Hawaii.

The chains of volcanic islands can be found mostly alongside the borders of the convergent plate boundaries, more specifically, on the convergent boundaries between an oceanic and continental tectonic plates. That can easily be seen by the so called ''Ring of Fire'' where there's numerous chains of volcanic islands

For an experiment, you place 15 g of ice with a temperature of -10 C into a cup and label
melamori03 [73]
The correct answer is c. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of a sample so if two samples have the same temperature they will also have the same average kinetic energy. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

How does a sample of hydrogen at 10 °C compare to a sample of hydrogen at 350 K?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer: -

The hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.

Explanation: -

Temperature of the hydrogen gas first sample = 10 °C.

Temperature in kelvin scale of the first sample = 10 + 273 = 283 K

For the second sample, the temperature is 350 K.

Thus we see the second sample of the hydrogen gas more temperature than the first sample.

We know from the kinetic theory of gases that

The kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with the increase in temperature of the gas. The speed of the movement of gas molecules also increase with the increase in kinetic energy.

So higher the temperature of a gas, more is the kinetic energy and more is the movement speed of the gas molecules.

Thus the hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.

The electron configurations of two unknown elements x and y are shown. X: 1s2 2s2 2p6 Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 Which statement is
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable

Explanation:

The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :

X: 1s2 2s2 2p6

Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.

To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X  can gain 2 atoms to become stable.

Element Y can also react as it can also share two atoms to fulfill its 3p orbital and will stable.

Hence, the correct option is "B".
