What kind of feature results from the convergence of two oceanic plates?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: When a convergent boundary occurs between two oceanic plates, one of those plates will subduct beneath the other. Normally the older plate will subduct because of its higher density. The subducting plate is heated as it is forced deeper into the mantle, and at a depth of about 100 miles (150 km) the plate begins to melt.

Answer:

You need two potassium atom to form an ionic bond with one sulfur atom. Pottassium ions are formed by donating losing their electrons in the outermost shell, thr lost electrons are gained by sulphur atom to form 2K+ and S2-, respectively. The attraction between the positive ions and negative ions gives rise to the ionic bond and the molecular formula is K2S

A sample of trifluoroacetic acid, C2HF3O2, contains 38.9 g of oxygen. Calculate the mass of the trifluoroacetic acid sample.
qwelly [4]

Answer:

138.6 g of  C₂HF₃O₂ have 38.9 g of O

Explanation:

Trifluoroacetic acid → C₂HF₃O₂

Molar mass = Mass of C . 2 + Mass of H + Mass of F . 3 + Mass of O .2

Molar mass = 12 . 2 + 1 . 1 + 19 . 3 + 16 . 2 = 114 g /mol

1 mol of C₂HF₃O₂ has:

2 moles of C

1 mol of H

3 moles of F

2 moles of O

If we state the relation in mass by g we say:

114 g of  C₂HF₃O₂ have 24g of C, 1 g of H, 57 g of F and 32 g of O

Let's make a rule of three:

32 g of O are contained in 114 g of  C₂HF₃O₂

38.9 g of O may be contained in (38.9 . 114) / 32 = 138.6 g

23492u undergoes alpha decay. what is the atomic number of the resulting element.
mash [69]
Alpha decay involves the loss of an alpha particle, aka a helium nucleus. This results in the mass number of the original element decreasing by 4 and the atomic number decreasing by 2. Assuming 23942u is uranium (92), the resulting element's atomic number is 90, making it thorium.
