That would be physical weathering, also known as mechanical weathering. Erosion is the wearing away of the surface. Various factors come into play to create this effect, all of which are very much characteristic of this type of force.

What is the Wt% of SiO2 in augite? (Ca, Fe, Mg, Na)(Mg,Fe,Al) (Si,Al)2 O6

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The weight% of $SiO_2$ in augite is 13.16 %.

Explanation:

Atomic mass of calcium = 40 g/mol

Atomic mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Atomic mass of magnesium = 24 g/mol

Atomic mass of sodium = 23 g/mol

Atomic mass of aluminum = 27 g/mol

Atomic mass of silicon = 28 g/mol

Atomic mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

Mass of $SiO_2=28 g/mol+ 2\time 16 g/mol=60 g/mol$

Molar mass of the augite $(Ca, Fe, Mg, Na)(Mg,Fe,Al)(Si,Al)_2 O_6$ = M

$M=40 g/mol+2\times 56 g/mol+2\times 24 g/mol+23 g/mol+3\times 27 g/mol+2\times 28 g/mol+6\times 16 g/mol=456 g/mol$

Weight% of $SiO_2$ in augite:

$w\%=\frac{60 g/mol}{456 g/mol}\times 100=13.16\%$

Describe 2. What is the structure of Earth's atmosphere?

sergejj [24]

The atmosphere consists of 4 layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere. This is the layer where we live and where weather happens. Temperature in this layer generally decreases with height. The boundary between the stratosphere and the troposphere is called the tropopause. Above the tropopause lies the stratosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height. This is because the stratosphere houses the ozone layer. The ozone layer is warm because it absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. The mesosphere is the layer above the stratosphere.This layer also contains ratios of nitrogen and oxygen similar to the troposphere, except the concentrations are 1000 times less and there is little water vapor there, so the air is too thin for weather to occur. The thermosphere is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height because it is being directly heated by the sun.

I got this info from North Carolina Climate Office.

Hope this helps!!
