Answer:

Three main classifications of rocks are

  • sedimentary rock
  • metamorphic rock
  • igneous rock

Explanation:

Three main classifications of rocks are:

  • Sedimentary rocks are formed from the shells, sand particles and pebbles.

Example of Sedimentary rock limestone.

  • Igneous rocks are formed by the crystallization and solidification of magma.

Example of Igneous rock basalt.

  • Metamorphic rocks are formed when the igneous rock or sedimentary rock they are exposed to high temperature and pressure below the Earth's surface.

Example of Metamorphic rock is marble.

Suppose that 25,0 mL of a gas at 725 mmHg and 298K is converted to
posledela

The new volume : 21.85 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

V1=25,0 ml

P1=725 mmHg

T1=298K is converted to

T2=273'K

P2=760 mmHg atm

Required

V2

Solution

Combined gas law :

\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}

Input the value :

V2=(P1.V1.T2)/(P2.T1)

V2=(725 x 25 ml x 273)/(760 x 298)

V2=21.85 ml

Determine whether each of the descriptions of matter describes a heterogeneous mixture, a homogeneous mixture, or a pure substan
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: a. two substances present; two phases present  : Heterogeneous mixture

b. two substances present; one phase present : Homogeneous mixture

c. one substance present; one phase present : pure substance.

d. one substance present; two phases present: Heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

A pure substance is a substance which contains definite composition of only one type of component. Hence, it cannot be separated by physical means.

Mixture is a substance which contains two or more than two types of components and they can be separated by physical means as well.

Homogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are not different. There is no physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

Heterogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has non-uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are also different.  There is a physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Appearance. Pure rock salt is colorless. However, when found underground it is generally not completely pure, so may have yellow, red, gray or brown hues. It is either transparent or translucent and when you shine a light on it, its luster is vitreous, meaning it appears shiny and glassy.
