Which factor would be most useful predicting the amount of mantle a certain volume of crust will displace

Chemistry
1 answer:
vovangra [49]4 years ago
8 0
Answer:
density of the crust

Explanation:
The displacement of the mantle by the continental or the ocean crust depends on a condition known as <span>isostasy which describes the gravitational equilibrium between both the mantle and the crust of the Earth.
If </span><span>isostasy is not preserved, this would mean that the equilibrium between the crust and the mantle is not maintained and that the crust would displace a volume of mantle.
The amount of mantle to be displaced usually depends on the density of the crust.

Hope this helps :)</span>

In calculating the relationship between the amount of heat added to a substance and the corresponding temperature change, the sp
otez555 [7]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a substance can be defined as the amount of heat a gram of the substance must lose or absorb in order to change its temperature by a degree Celsius. It is measured in Joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C).

Generally, the specific heat capacity of water is 4.182J/kg°C and is the highest among liquids.

Heat capacity or quantity of heat is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of the substance.

dt represents the change in temperature.

Hence in calculating the relationship between the amount of heat added to a substance and the corresponding temperature change, the specific heat capacity is usually represented by the symbol C.

Compared to an electron, which particle has a charge that is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign?
Sindrei [870]
I think the correct answer is proton since protons have a charge of +1 while electrons have a charge of -1.  However, since beta particles are used to name a type of nuclear decay and can refer to either a positron or electron depending on the circumstances, your teacher might want you to put beta particle since positrons are basically electrons but that have a positive charge.
 I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

A solution of bleach has about 1.5 g of NaOCl dissolved in 220 mL of solution. What is the molarity?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

0.091 mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity ( unit = mol / L or M )

V = volume of solution in liter ( unit = L ),  

n = moles of solute ( unit = mol ),  

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the data of the question , it is given that ,

w = 1.5 g

V = 220 mL

Since ,

1 mL = 1/1000L

V = 0.220 L

As we known , the mass of bleach NaOCl is ,

m = 74.44 g/mol

from the above equation , moles can be calculated as -

n = w / m

n = 1.5g / 74.44 g/mol

n = 0.0201 mol

Molarity of the solution is calculated as ,

M = n / V

M = 0.0201 mol / 0.220 L

M = 0.091 mol/L
