What is the effect of water on rock melting?

Chemistry
1 answer:
NeTakaya3 years ago
3 0

Option a  is the correct answer

When the temperature of the rock rises above the melting point of minerals present in the rock results in melting of rock.

Rock contains different types of minerals having different melting points. Thus,  not all the parts of rock melts at same time. Some of the minerals melt at high temperatures whereas some of the minerals melt at low temperatures. Hence, decrease in melting temperature and increase in melting temperatures due to water depends upon the composition of rock.

How is a molecule of hydrogen formed from two hydrogen atoms?
Shtirlitz [24]
A molecule of hydrogen is formed by two hydrogen atoms, that is a fact.

How does it work? When two atoms, known as "diatomic" pair with another in a bond known non-polar covalent bonds. Where they equally share electrons. A Hydrogen atoms needs 1 more electrons to fill its first shell fully and have a full valence shell. So if two H's share their electrons, they'll both have a full V-Shell!

That's the basics of both the H-H bond and all the other diatomic bonds as well.

After completing an experiment to determine gravimetrically the percentage of water in a hydrate, a student reported a value of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating

Explanation:

a) Strong initial heating caused some of the hydrate sample to splatter out.

This will result in a higher percent of water than the real one, because you assume in the calculation that the splattered sample was only water (which in not true).

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating.

Usually inorganic salts may absorbed moisture from the atmosphere so this will explain the 13% difference between calculated water percent the real content of water in the hydrate.

c) The amount of the hydrate sample used was too small.

It will create some errors but they do not create a difference of 13% difference as stated in the problem.

d) The crucible was not heated to constant mass before use.

Here the error is small.

e) Excess heating caused the dehydrated sample to decompose.

Usually the inorganic compounds are stable in the temperature range of this kind of experiments. If you have an organic compound which retain water molecules you may decompose the sample forming volatile compounds which will leave crucible so the error will be quite high.
