Answer:

A. Fault blocks

Explanation:

The block mountains are formed by pieces of the crust that breaks down and pieces are pushed up by the movement of the crust around them. These type of mountains usually have a steep and a slope side, due to the irregular nature of the fracture. Example of such mountains are the Sierra Nevada mountains in North-America.

They're not caused by the collision of two tectonic plates, like most of the mountains of our planet.

Answer: A. fault blocks

Explanation: Fault-block Mountains - Fault-block mountains are formed along fault lines (the edge between plates).

The huge chunks of rock on either side of the fault are called fault blocks. As the tectonic plates

move, some of the fault blocks are pushed up, while others are pushed down. This difference in

elevation (height) forms fault block mountains. The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United

States are fault-block mountains.

Oil and water don't mix because oil is made up of non-polar molecules while water molecules are polar in nature. Because water molecules are electrically charged, they get attracted to otherwater molecules and exclude the oil molecules. (this is from wiki)

C12H26O + SO3+NaOH ----> C12H25NaSO4+ H2O

Vlad [161]

Answer:

We can solve this by the method of which i solved your one question earlier

so again here molar mass of C12H25NaSO4 is 288.372 and number of moles for 11900 gm of C12H25NaSO4 will be = 11900/288.372

which is almost = 41.26 moles

so to get one mole of C12H25NaSO4 we need one mole of C12H26O

so for 41.26 moles of C12H25NaSO4 it will require 41 26 moles of C12H26O

so the mass of C12H26O = 41.26× its molar mass

C12H26O = 41.26×186.34

= 7688.38 gm!!

so the conclusion is If you need 11900 g of C12H25NaSO4 (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) you need C12H26O 7688.38 gm !!

Again i d k wether it's right or wrong but i tried my best hope it helped you!!

Nataly [62]

Answer:

a. 59 m/atm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must mention Henry's law.

Henry's law states that at a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas dissolved in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid.

It can be expressed as: C = KP,

C is the concentration of the solution (C = 1.3 M).

P is the partial pressure of the gas above the solution (P = 0.022 atm).

K is the Henry's law constant (K = ??? M/atm),

∵ C = KP.

∴ K = C/P = (1.3 M)/(0.022 atm) = 59.0 M/atm.
