What geologic action may produce a chain of volcanic islands

Chemistry

Vaselesa [24]3 years ago

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

A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction.

Explanation:

A simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction, called single-displacement reaction, is a reaction in which an element of a compound is substituted by another element involved in the reaction. The starting materials are always pure elements and an aqueous compound. And a new pure aqueous compound and a different pure element are generated as products. The general form of a simple substitution reaction is:

AB + C → A +BC

where C and A are pure elements; C replaces A within compound AB to form a new co, placed CB and elementary A.

So, in a Single replacement reaction an uncombined element replaces an element.

An iron bar at 200c is placed in thermal contact with an identical iron bar at 120c in an isolated system
Step2247 [10]

Conduction: In the conduction, the heat is transferred from the hotter body to the colder body until the temperature on both bodies are equal.

In thermal equilibrium, there is no heat transfer as the heat is transferred till the temperature on the bodies are not same.

In the given problem, an iron bar at 200°C is placed in thermal contact with an identical iron bar at 120°C in an isolated system. After 30 minutes, the thermal equilibrium is attained. Then, the temperature on both iron bars are equal.Both iron bars are at 160°C in an isolated system.

But in an open system, the temperatures of the iron bars after 30 minutes would be less than 160°C. There will be heat lost to the surrounding. The room temperature is 25°C. There will be exchange of the heat occur between the iron bars and the surrounding. But It would take more than 30 minutes for both iron bars to reach 160°C because heat would be transferred less efficiently.
