Percent (%) Composition of CuO

Cu = 1 x 50g      - Multiply by one as there is one Cu

O = 1 x 12.5g      - Multiply by one as there is one O

CuO = 62.5g

% for Cu = 50g over 62.5 multiplied by 100 = 80%

% for O = 12.5g over 62.5 multiplied by 100 = 20%

Final Answer :

<em>Percent (%) Composition of CuO = </em>80% (Cu) & 20% (O)

erastova [34]

Answer:

1. Hydrogen

Explanation:

These planets contain liquid hydrogen in their interior, while the earth has liquid iron in it.

When liquid hydrogen is in tremendous pressure enviroments, the electrons  that make up each atom of this element end up "jumping" to other atoms. These "jumps" allow liquid hydrogen to behave like a metal.

In addition, with the constant energy released by the nucleus of planets like Jupiter and Saturn, as well as their rotations, the liquid hydrogen receives induction of currents, giving rise to extremely powerful magnetic fields.

What types of volcanic landforms occur at divergent plate boundaries
DochEvi [55]
In divergent boundaries deep ocean trenches form due to the 2 plates pulling apart. the plate in the middle gets stretched thinner and thinner as it submerges into the sea until enough pressure causes magma to erupt from it. when the magma erupts new sea floor is created
