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.

SashulF [63]

Balanced chemical reaction: 2CH₄(g) ⇄ C₂H₂(g) + 3H₂(g).

1) In a chemical reaction, chemical equilibrium is the state in which both reactants (methane CH₄) and products (ethyne C₂H₂ and hydrogen H₂) are present in concentrations which have no further tendency to change with time.  

2) At equilibrium, both the forward and reverse reactions are still occurring.

3) Reaction rates of the forward and backward reactions are equal and  there are no changes in the concentrations of the reactants and products.

A gas sample is collected in a 0.279 L container at 22.7 °C and 0.764 atm. If the sample has a mass of 0.320 g, what is the iden
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

HCl

Explanation:

<em>Choices:</em>

<em>CO: 28.01g/mol</em>

<em>NO₂: 46g/mol</em>

<em>CH₄: 16.04g/mol</em>

<em>HCl: 36.4g/mol</em>

<em>CO₂: 44.01g/mol</em>

<em />

It is possible to identify a substance finding its molar mass (That is, the ratio between its mass in grams and its moles). It is possible to find the moles of the gas using general ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

<em>Where P is pressure of gas 0.764atm; V its volume, 0.279L; n moles; R gas constant: 0.082atmL/molK and T its absolute temperature, 295.85K (22.7°C + 273.15).</em>

Replacing:

PV = nRT

PV / RT = n

0.764atm*0.279L / 0.082atmL/molKₓ295.85K = n

<em>8.786x10⁻³ = moles of the gas</em>

<em />

As the mass of the gas is 0.320g; its molar mass is:

0.320g / 8.786x10⁻³moles = 36.4 g/mol

Based in the group of answer choices, the identity of the gas is:

<h3>HCl</h3>
