Elis [28]

Answer:

The collision of oceanic plates and any other plates in which the oceanic plate slides beneath the other plate creates the biggest earth quakes. Most of these earth quakes occur beneath the sea or oceans and can cause volcanic eruptions as well. Tsunami is another oceanic event that occurs due to earth quakes occurring due to shifting of plates beneath the sea.

Sulfur reacts with oxygen and creates two compounds. Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen. Compound B
spayn [35]

Answer:

The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2

Explanation:

According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.

Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen

        \frac{1.34}{0.86}= 1.5

Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen

      \frac{11.643}{10.49}= 1.0

Ratio of oxygen in each compound

   always put the larger number over the smaller number.

\frac{CompoundA}{Compound B}=\frac{1.5}{1.0}=\frac{3}{2}

Through an uplift under the earth crust at a dirvergent boundary a _____ is formed.
postnew [5]

<span>Out of the  following given choices;</span>

<span>a. cliff               b. fault </span>

<span>c. plateau          d. mountain</span>

<span>The answer is b.  A divergent boundary is a line at which two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. It is caused by the two magma convection currents in the mantle moving in opposing directions (one clockwise, the other anti-clockwise) hence dragging the crust with them. Therefore the biggest force at the boundary on the crust is that of pulling. This causes <span>fractures and faults on the earth’s crust.</span></span>
