Why can water pass through sandstrone but not through shale

Chemistry
1 answer:
Valentin [98]3 years ago
3 0
It really depends on the 'type' of rock it is. By this I mean whether it's impermeable or permeable. Impermeable rocks don't allow water through and permeable rocks do. It has to do with how 'porous' a rock is: how many openings it has and how spaced apart are its particles are. Sandstone is permeable and Shale impermeable.

How does this data provide evidence for base pairing in dna
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

There are chemical cross-links between the two strands in DNA, formed by pairs of bases. They always pair up in a particular way, called complementary base pairing: thymine pairs with adenine (T–A) guanine pairs with cytosine (G–C)

Hen the external pressure is 404 kPa, what is the vapor pressure of water at its boiling point?
NikAS [45]
At the boiling point, external pressure is equal to the vapor pressure of water. Therefore, the vapor pressure of water at an ecternal pressure of 404 kPa is equal to 404 kPa as well. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

The specific heat of the metal, given the data from the question is 0.60 J/gºC

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Mass of metal (M) = 74 g
  • Temperature of metal (T) = 94 °C
  • Mass of water (Mᵥᵥ) = 120 g
  • Temperature of water (Tᵥᵥ) = 26.5 °C
  • Equilibrium temperature (Tₑ) = 32 °C
  • Specific heat capacity of the water (Cᵥᵥ) = 4.184 J/gºC
  • Specific heat capacity of metal (C) =?

<h3>How to determine the specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>

The specific heat capacity of the sample of gold can be obtained as follow:

According to the law of conservation of energy, we have:

Heat loss = Heat gain

MC(T –Tₑ) = MᵥᵥC(Tₑ – Tᵥᵥ)

74 × C(94 – 32) = 120 × 4.184 (32 – 26.5)

C × 4588 = 2761.44

Divide both side by 4588

C = 2761.44 / 4588

C = 0.60 J/gºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.60 J/gºC
