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.

A weather system moving through the American Midwest produced rain with an average pH of 5.02. By the time the system reached Ne
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.

Explanation:

The acidity of a solution depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions ([H⁺]). We can calculate this concentration from the pH using the following expression.

pH = -log ([H⁺])

American Midwest

pH = -log ([H⁺])

5.02 = -log ([H⁺])

[H⁺] = antilog (-5.02) = 9.55 × 10⁻⁶ M

New England

pH = -log ([H⁺])

4.66 = -log ([H⁺])

[H⁺] = antilog (-4.66) = 2.19 × 10⁻⁵ M

The ratio of concentrations is:

\frac{2.19 \times 10^{-5} M  }{9.55 \times 10^{-6} M} =2.29

The rain falling in New England is 2.29 times more acidic than the one in the American Midwest.

Explain how and the type of a bond that forms between sodium and chlorine in sodium chloride (NaCl)
Alexandra [31]

Explanation:

Sodium has 1 electron in its outermost shell, and chlorine has 7 electrons. It is easiest for sodium to lose its electron and form a +1 ion, and for chlorine to gain an electron, forming a -1 ion.

<em>Now ionic bonds areIons are formed by atoms that have non-full outermost electron shells in order to become more like the noble gases in Group 8 of the Periodic Table,</em>

<em>Now ionic bonds areIons are formed by atoms that have non-full outermost electron shells in order to become more like the noble gases in Group 8 of the Periodic Table,Some atoms add electrons to get a full shell, thus becoming a negative ion. Other atoms subtract electrons from their outermost shell, leaving a full </em><em>shell and an overall positive charge..</em>

<em>shell and an overall positive charge..therefore it is an</em> ionic bond

Indicate the types of forces that are involved between the solute and solvent when forming a homogeneous solution between ch3ch2
Bess [88]
Answer:
            Dispersion Forces are found between n-Pentane (CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃) and n-Hexane (CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃).

Explanation:
                   Dispersion Forces are present and developed by those compounds which are non-polar in nature. In given statement n-Pentane and n-Hexane both are non-polar in nature as the electronegativity difference between Hydrogen atoms and Carbon atoms is less than 0.4. 
                   When non-polar molecules approaches each other, a Dipole is induced in one of them, this step is known as Instantaneous Dipole, This generated Dipole on approaching another non-polar molecule induces dipole in it and the process propagates. Hence, creating intermolecular interactions.
