What does continental drift and sea floor spreading have in common

Chemistry

Llana [10]3 years ago
8 0

In the early 1900s, a scientist named Alfred Wegener noticed how the continents seem to fit together and developed the Theory of Continental Drift. Continental drift is the theory that continents can drift apart from one other and have done so in the past. Wegner's theory also explained why fossils of the same plant and animal species are found on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. In addition similar types of rock and evidence of the same ancient climatic conditions are found on several continents.

Wegner hypothesized that all the separate continents of today were once joined in a single landmass that he called Pangaea.

List any two types of mixtures that are not covered in the Exploration. Also mention the state
marishachu [46]

This question is incomplete because you lack the options. But it can be answered based on my knowledge.

Two types of mixture could be: homogeneous and heterogeneous

A mixture is a term that refers to the combination of two or more components joined but not chemically combined. Mixtures can be classified as follows:

  • Homogeneous: Are characterized by having a uniform texture and appearance, their components are not distinguished.
  • For example: water + grapes = wine

Homogeneous mixtures can be:

  • Solutions: The mixtures formed are characterized by being formed with components that do not react chemically with each other, but that can modify their physical properties when they become part of the solution.
  • For example: coffee + milk = Coffee

There are also Colloids, a type of mixture formed by particles of one or more substances that are dispersed in another substance called a dispersing medium.

  • For example Gelatin powder + Water = Gelatin.

They are the intermediate mixtures between homogeneous and heterogeneous.

  • Heterogeneous: Are mixtures in which it is possible to observe their components due to the discontinuity with the naked eye.
  • For example Milk + cereal = Cereal

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does 18F- contain?
Rom4ik [11]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

             Number of Protons  =  9

             Number of Neutrons  =  9

             Number of Electrons  =  10

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Number of Protons:

                               The number of protons present in any atom are equal to the atomic number of that particular atom. Hence, as the atomic number of Fluorine is 9 therefore, it contains 9 protons.

Number Neutrons:

                             The number of neutrons present in atom are calculated as,

                                # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of protons

As given,

                                Atomic Mass  =  18

                                # of Protons  =  9

So,

                                # of Neutrons  =  18 - 9

                                # of Neutrons  =  9

Number of Electrons:

                                   As we know for a neutral atom the number of electrons are exactly equal to the number of protons present in its nucleus. So, for 9 protons in neutral Fluorine atom there must be 9 electrons. But, we are given with Fluoride Ion (i.e. F⁻) so it contains one extra electron hence, it contains the total of 10 electrons respectively.
