Question:
A) C6H6
B) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2COH6
C) NaCl
D) NH3
Answer:
The correct option is;
A) C₆H₆
Explanation:
Heat of fusion = 6.02 kJ/mol
Heat of vaporization =40.8 kJ/mol
Here, we analyze each of the options as follows
A) C₆H₆
Benzene has a melting point of 5.5° C and a boiling point of
80.1 ° C similar to water
Heat of fusion = 9.92 kJ/mol
Heat of vaporization =30.8kJ/mol
B) CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂COH₆
The above compound is more likely solid
C) NaCl solid
D) NH₃ melting point = -77.73 °C boiling point = -33.34 °C
Of the above, the compounds the one that closely resembles water is C₆H₆
Answer:
Interest groups help democracy because they represent the interests of such large numbers of people and encourage political participation by many groups. The stable, cooperative relationship often develops among a congressional committee, an administrative agency, and one or more supportive interest groups.
Interest groups try to influence the government to adopt legislation that would benefit them. Email, letter, faxes, phone calls, providing research and information (to bring about change by proving your cause with facts by funded research).
Answer:
A) The continents and ocean basins undergo continuous change. Both are parts of lithospheric plates that move against each other. B) Divergent plate in Mid-Atlantic Ridge with material flowing into the ocean. C) A plate moved over a stationary site of magma upwelling "Hot Spot" and created a volcanic island chain over the time
Explanation:
A) The basic thought is, that instead of being permanent fixtures of the earth's surface, the continents and ocean basins undergo continuous change. Both are parts of lithospheric plates that move against each other, and in the process new crust is created at midoceanic ridges (spreading centers), and old crust is consumed at convergent plate boundaries (subduction zones).
B) There are basically three different types of plate boundaries:
Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other.
Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another.
Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.
The best known of the divergent boundaries is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This submerged mountain range, which extends from the Arctic Ocean to beyond the southern tip of Africa, is but one segment of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the Earth.
C) The linear arrangement of many seamounts indicates that they formed because the plate moved over a stationary site of magma upwelling, a so called mantle "Hot Spot". Seamounts are submarine volcanoes that may finally build above the water level, in which case they are called islands. If seamounts rise above sea level (due to buildup of material in a cone or upwelling mantle pushes up plate), they are subject to wave erosion and colonization by reefs, with both processes tending to create a flat top on the original volcanic cone.
