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

Chemistry
1 answer:
vovangra [49]3 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>

Hydrogen gas, iodine vapor, hydrogen iodine are mixed in a flask and heated to 696°C. H2(g) + I2(g) ⇋ 2 HI(g) Kc = 52 at 696°C I
Anettt [7]

Answer: The equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas is 0.0269 M

Explanation:

The chemical reaction follows the equation:

                  H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HI(g)

At t = 0          0.044M     0.044M              0.177M  

At t=t_{eq}    (0.044-x)M    (0.044-x)M      (0.177+x)M

The expression for K_c for the given reaction follows:

K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2]\times [I_2]}

We are given:

K_c=52

Putting values in above equation, we get:

52=\frac{(0.177+x)^2}{(0.044-x)^2}

x=0.0171M

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas is (0.044-x) M =(0.044-0.0171) M= 0.0269 M

Frank has a sample of steel that weighs 80 grams. If the density of his sample of steel is 8 g/cm3 ,what is the samples volume?
kirill115 [55]

Answer: 10 cm3

Explanation:

Mass of sample of steel (m) = 80 grams

density of sample of steel (p) = 8 g/cm3 samples volume (v) = ?

Since density is obtained by dividing mass by volume, the density of the steel sample is expressed as:

density = mass / volume

p = m / v

make v the subject formula

v = m / p

v = 80 grams / 8 g/cm3

v = 10 cm3

Thus, the samples volume is 10 cm3

How many pennies are in $2,020.20?
Nata [24]

Answer:

202,020 pennies

Explanation:

The amount of pennies in 1 dollar is 100.

Basically, you just multiply the whole dollar amount (2020) by 100 and then add 20 to find the amount of pennies.

(2020)(100)+20= 202,000+20= 202,020 pennies.
