1. Valcouroceras is a New York State index fossil. Which mountain-building event

Chemistry
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago
4 0

"Taconian orogeny" mountain-building event  occurred in New York State during the time when Valcouroceras was living in oceans  covering parts of New York State.

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

A timeframe of mountain construction, which ended 440 million years earlier is known as the Taconic orogeny. A tremendous network of mountains developed from eastern Canada down to what is today the US East Coast Piedmont.

As the mountain range deteriorated during the Silurian and Devonian periods, sediments from the mountain range dispersed across the Appalachians and midcontinental North America of today. It took place when a terrane or sequence of terranes i.e volcanic arcs and microcontinents collide with east North America in a subduction zone that dips east.

Which species in each pair is a better oxidizing agent under standard-state conditions?
Doss [256]

br2 au3 in each pair is a better oxidizing agent under standard-state conditions

In a redox chemical process, an oxidizing agent is a material that obtains or "accepts" or "receives" an electron from a reducing agent (also known as an oxidant, oxidizer, electron recipient, or electron acceptor) (called the reductant, reducer, or electron donor). Halogens (such as chlorine and fluorine), oxygen, and hydrogen peroxide are typical examples of oxidizing agents (H2O2).

The best oxidizing agent is fluorine, which also has the highest positive electrode potential value. Hydrogen peroxide, which is more potent than chlorine, chlorine dioxide, and potassium permanganate, is one of the most efficient oxidizers ever discovered. Normally, the oxidizing agent absorbs these electrons for itself, becoming reduced and acquiring electrons in the process. An electron acceptor is therefore an oxidizing agent.

Use the nuclear decay reaction in the picture to answer the following question.
allsm [11]

Answer:

1a. Both sides of the decay reaction have the same charge.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are the same.

2. The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

Explanation:

1a. Considering the two sides of the decay reaction and with respect to the law of conservation of charge, it can be observed that both sides have the same charge. Charge can not be created or destroyed in the process.

b. The number of nucleons on both sides are equal. No nucleon is created or destroyed in the process.

2. Binding energy is the minimum energy required to separate an atom into its nucleons. From Einstein's energy equation;

             E = Δmc^{2}

Where E is the binding energy of the atom, Δm is the mass defect and c is the speed of light.

Given that: Δm = 1.908 g/mol and c = 3 × 10^{8}. So that:

           E = 1.908 × (3*10^{8}) ^{2}

              = 1.908 × 9 × 10^{16}

              = 17.172 × 10^{16} J

The binding energy of one mole of the atom is 17.172 × 10^{16} J.

Magnesium is able to ____ copper, and copper is able to ____ magnesium.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

In given example,

Magnesium is able to <u>reduced</u> the copper and copper is able to <u>oxidized</u> the magnesium.

Zinc is able to <u>oxidized</u> the magnesium and magnesium is able to <u>reduced</u> the zinc.

Copper is able to <u>oxidized</u> the zinc and zinc is able to <u>reduced</u> the copper.
