Why are rift zones common places for igneous rock to form

Physics

Kobotan [32]3 years ago

<span>Rift zone is the area on the Earth in which plates of the earth's crust are moving away from each other, forming a zone of fissures (gaps). From that zone of fissures, lava (or magma) erupts. That lava when cooled down makes the igneous rock on the surface of the Earth. That is the reason why the rift zones are the common places for the igneous rocks to form. </span>

They are commonplaces because they have deep cracks where magma can come from. And we all know that igneous rock is molten lava that has been cooled, so this answer will make sense.

A sample of carbon dioxide (C°p,m = 37.11 J K−1 mol−1) of mass 2.80 g at 27°C is allowed to expand reversibly and adiabatically
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

182 to 3 s.f

Explanation:

Workdone for an adiabatic process is given as

W = K(V₂¹⁻ʸ - V₁¹⁻ʸ)/(1 - γ)

where γ = ratio of specific heats. For carbon dioxide, γ = 1.28

For an adiabatic process

P₁V₁ʸ = P₂V₂ʸ = K

K = P₁V₁ʸ

We need to calculate the P₁ using ideal gas equation

P₁V₁ = mRT₁

P₁ = (mRT₁/V₁)

m = 2.80 g = 0.0028 kg

R = 188.92 J/kg.K

T₁ = 27°C = 300 K

V₁ = 500 cm³ = 0.0005 m³

P₁ = (0.0028)(188.92)(300)/0.0005

P₁ = 317385.6 Pa

K = P₁V₁¹•²⁸ = (317385.6)(0.0005¹•²⁸) = 18.89

W = K(V₂¹⁻ʸ - V₁¹⁻ʸ)/(1 - γ)

V₁ = 0.0005 m³

V₂ = 2.10 dm³ = 0.002 m³

1 - γ = 1 - 1.28 = - 0.28

W =

18.89 [(0.002)⁻⁰•²⁸ - (0.0005)⁻⁰•²⁸]/(-0.28)

W = -67.47 (5.698 - 8.4)

W = 182.3 = 182 to 3 s.f
