Describe the process of convection and how it contributes to seafloor spreading
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading and other tectonic activity processes are the result of mantle convection. ... Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense.

what concept from chemistry was the most challenging and why? what can you do to learn more about this concept as you progress t
qwelly [4]

The most difficult concept will be the concept of patient drug tolerance because there are many drugs that have different side effects for different patients. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the response of certain drugs to different patients. This will help avoid wrong drug combinations. This can cause side effects.

To learn more about this concept, you need to do your homework on these different drugs and the tolerance reactions you may experience, and attend some drug tolerance seminars, where the speaker will give you more ideas . And a further explanation of the concept.

Another topic in chemistry that is most tough to understand is moles. We can understand this concept by understanding the fact mole is an amount of a substance which may be atoms, molecules, ions, etc which have exactly 6.02214076 * 1023 'elementary entities' of the substance.

Identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent for 4Li(s) + O_2 (g) to 2Li_2O(s).
Doss [256]
The reaction is:

<span>4Li(s) + O2 (g) = 2Li+  + 2O-2(s).

The oxidizing agent is the one that is being reduced which is oxygen  where the charge changed from neutral to -2 while the reducing agent is the on being oxidized which is lithium where the charge change from neutral to +1.</span>

The plane of the Moon's orbit around the Earth is tilted by 5° with respect to the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun, the ecliptic. This tilt prevents an eclipse from occurring at every new and full moon. In a lunar eclipse, the observer watches the Earth's shadow fall on the Moon.

Many important biochemicals are organic acids, such as pyruvic acid ( p K a = 2.50 ) and lactic acid ( p K a = 3.86 ) . The conj
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Pyruvic acid: conjugate base

Lactic acid: conjugate base

Explanation:

The ratio of conjugate base to conjugate acid can be found using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation when the pH and pKa are known.

pH = pKa + log([A⁻]/[HA])

The equation can be rearranged to solve for the ratio:

pH - pKa = log([A⁻]/[HA])

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa)

Now we can calculate the ratio for the pyruvic acid:

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(7.4 - 2.50) = 79433

[A⁻] = 79433[HA]

There is a much higher concentration of the conjugate base.

Similarly for lactic acid:

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(7.4 - 3.86) = 3467

[A⁻] = 3467[HA]

For lactic acid the conjugate base also dominates at pH 7.4
