How do distinctive rock layers support the theory of continental drift

Chemistry

The lithosphere (under the tectonic plates) is semifluid, allowing for the plates above to move over it, causing earthquakes, and essentially continental drift.

Answer: 1.  C. polar covalent: electrons shared between silicon and sulfur but attracted more to the sulfur

2. B)  NH_3

3. B) Fluorine

Explanation:

1. A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of sulphur- electronegativity of silicon = 2.5 -1.8 = 0.7

Thus as electronegativity difference is less than 1.7 , the cond is polar covalent and as electronegativity of sulphur is more , the electrons will be more towards sulphur.

2. A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Example: NH_3

Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electrons from metals to non metals. Example: Mg_3N_2 , AlCl_3 and LiBr

3.  For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here K is having an oxidation state of +1 and as the compound formed is KZ, the oxidation state of non metallic element Z should be -1. Thus the element Z is flourine which exists as diatomic gas F_2

Phosphorus trichloride gas and chlorine gas react to form phosphorus pentachloride gas: PCl3(g)+Cl2(g)⇌PCl5(g). A 7.5-L gas vess
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The equilibrium constant in terms of concentration that is, K_c=3.6243\times 10^{3} .

Explanation:

PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)

The relation of K_c\& K_p is given by:

K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta n_g}

K_p= Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure.=98.1

K_c= Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration  =?

T = temperature at which the equilibrium reaction is taking place.

R = universal gas constant

\Delta n_g = Difference between gaseous moles on product side and reactant side=n_{g,p}-n_{g.r}=1-2=-1

98.1=K_c(RT)^{-1}

98.1 =\frac{K_c}{RT}

K_c=98.1\times 0.0821 L atm/mol K\times 450 K=3,624.30=3.6243\times 10^{3}

The equilibrium constant in terms of concentration that is, K_c=3.6243\times 10^{3} .

Level 1: 2Sr + 02 > 2Sro
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Sr would be the limiting reactant

5 moles

Explanation:

Since the equation is a balanced equation, the coefficient shows how each substance relates to the other in terms of the number of moles.

Reactants would be those on the left hand side of the arrow, while the products would be found on te right and side of the arrow. In this question, the reactants would be Sr and O₂.

Limiting reactant is the reactant that is insufficient; meaning to say that there is not enough of that substance and thus the reaction cannot continue. The other reactant(s) that is not limiting is called the excess reactants.

From the balanced equation, 2 moles of Sr is needed to react with 1 mole of O₂. Thus, if we have 5 moles of each reactant, Sr would be the limiting reactant since for every 1 mole of O₂, there has to be 2 moles of Sr in order for the reaction to proceed. Thus, if we have 5 moles of O₂, we would need 10 moles of Sr.

When we work out the amount of products formed, we look at the number of moles of the limiting reactant. This is because the limiting reactant determines how much is being reacted, while the excess number of moles of the excess reactant will remain unreacted.

For every 2 moles of Sr reacted, 2 moles of SrO would be produced. This means that the mole ratio of Sr to SrO is 1:1. Thus, since 5 moles of Sr has been reacted, 5 moles of the product (SrO) would be produced.
