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.

When a 2.5 mol of sugar (C12H22O11) are added to a certain amount of water the boiling point is raised by 1 Celsius degree. If 2
Mademuasel [1]

Answer is: boiling point will be changed by 4°C.

Chemical dissociation of aluminium nitrate in water: Al(NO₃)₃ → Al³⁺(aq) + 3NO⁻(aq).

Change in boiling point: ΔT =i · Kb · b.

Kb - molal boiling point elevation constant of water is 0.512°C/m, this the same for both solution.

b -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent., this is also same for both solution, because ther is same amount of substance.

i - Van't Hoff factor.

Van't Hoff factor for sugar solution is 1, because sugar do not dissociate on ions.

Van't Hoff factor for aluminium nitrate solution is approximately 4, because it dissociates on four ions (one aluminium cation and three nitrate anions). So ΔT is four times bigger.

What causes water to increase in density?
murzikaleks [220]

Explanation:

temperature changes affect seawater density as water cools its density increases. As water cools H2O molecules pack more closely together because the molecules are vibrating less at low temperatures and take up less volume. The same number of water molecules in smaller volume results higher density

Which of the conservationists discussed earlier in this unit is
Arte-miy333 [17]

The correct answer is A. The conservationist credited with founding the Wilderness Society is Bob Marshall.

Bob Marshall was an American forester, botanist, traveler, climber, writer and social activist who advocated the preservation of unspoiled wildlife.

 

He actively contributed to the development and adoption of environmental regulations prohibiting the construction of roads in vast federal specially protected natural areas. In 1935 he became one of the founders of the public environmental organization The Wilderness Society and its main sponsor.  

Today Bob Marshall is considered one of the main initiators of the wildlife movement in the United States. Several geographic features are named after him, including the Bob Marshall Wilderness Nature Reserve in Montana and the Marshall Mountain on the Adirondack Ridge.
