Answer;
D. where two plates collide
Explanation;
-Subduction zones are plate tectonic boundaries where two plates converge, and one plate is thrust beneath the other. This process results in geohazards, such as earthquakes and volcanoes.
-Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction.
Sorry I didn't see this before...
Okay, I see two major problems with this student's experiment:
1) Nitric acid Won't Dissolve in Methane
Nitric acid is what's called a mineral acid. That means it is inorganic (it doesn't contain carbon) and dissolves in water.
Methane is an organic molecule (it contains carbon). It literally cannot dissolve nitric acid. Here's why:
For nitric acid (HNO3) to dissolve into a solvent, that solvent must be polar. It must have a charge to pull the positively charged Hydrogen off of the Oxygen. Methane has no charge, since its carbon and hydrogens have nearly perfect covalent bonds. Thus it cannot dissolve nitric acid. There will be no solution. That leads to the next problem:
2) He's Not actually Measuring a Solution
He's picking up the pH of the pure nitric acid. Since it didn't dissolve, what's left isn't a solution—it's like mixing oil and water. He has groups of methane and groups of nitric acid. Since methane is perfectly neutral (neither acid nor base), the electronic instrument is only picking up the extremely acidic nitric acid. There's no point to what he's doing.
Does that help?
Answer:
t = 4.17 hours
Explanation:
given,
The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km
= 4.5 x 10⁹ Km
= 4.5 x 10¹¹ m
The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.
<em>V = d / t m/s</em>
∴ t = d / V
= 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s
= 15,000 s
= 4.17 h
Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h
The volume would be 287cm³. Multiply all the 3 numbers by each other
