Identify the two layers of Earth where seismic S waves do not travel.

Answer: The outer core and the inner core

Explanation:

S waves are the secondary seismic waves or shear waves that can travel only in the solid but cannot travel in the liquid. It is because the outer core is liquid in nature and shear strength is absent in liquid. So this wave when reaches the outer core boundary, it gets absorbed. So it cannot travel in the outer core as well as in the inner core, thereby producing a shadow zone at 103°-103°.

The outer core and the core because S waves can only travel through solid objects, not liquids.

3. If a sound is louder or a light is brighter, what does this mean about the amplitude of
hodyreva [135]

Answer: for 3. I would say it means that the amplitude is greater because if a sound is louder that means the amplitude is larger, same with the light.So that would mean the softer the sound the smaller the amplitude same with the dim of the light so for 4. It would be the amplitude is smaller. Hope this helps! :) ( if you have any questions feel free to ask)

ANSWER:

4 a) Specific elements have more than one oxidation state, demonstrating variable valency.

For example, the following transition metals demonstrate varied valence states: Fe^{2+}, Fe^{3+}, Cr^{2+}, Cr^{3+}, etc.

Normal metals such as Pb^{2+} and Pb^{4+} also show variable valencies. Certain non-metals are also found to show more than one valence state Pb^{3+} and Pb^{5+}.

4 b) Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

For example, Carbon-14 is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon, having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. However, C-14 does not last forever and there will come a time when it loses its extra neutrons and becomes Carbon-12.

5 a) 2Fe + 3Cl_2 → 2FeCl_3    

5 b) 3Pb + 8HNO_3 → 3Pb (NO_3)_2 + 4H_2O + 2NO_2

5 c) Zn + H_2SO_4 → ZnSO_4 + H_2   (already balanced so don't need to change)

5 d) 2H_2 + O_2 → 2H_2O

5 e) 2Mg + 2HCl → 2MgCl + H_2

EXPLANATION (IF NEEDED):

1. Write out how many atoms of each element is on the left (reactant side) and right (product side) of the arrow.

2. Start multiplying each side accordingly to try to get atoms of the elements on both sides equal.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

b.) Br and Br

Explanation:

A covalent bond occurs when electrons are shared between two atoms causing them to form a bond.

A "pure" covalent bond refers to a nonpolar covalent bond. In these bonds, the electrons are shared equally between two atoms as a result of the absence of an (or very small) electronegativity difference. The purest covalent bond would therefore be between two atoms of the same electronegativity. Two bromines (Br) have the same electronegativity, thus making it the purest covalent bond.

Polar covalent bonds occur when electrons are shared unequally between two atoms. There is a larger electronegativity difference between the two atoms, but not large enough to classify the bonds as ionic. In this case, a.) and c.) are polar covalent bonds and d.) is an ionic bond.
