Law of superposition

Principle of cross-cutting

Explanation:

The geologic precepts that would be used to determine the relative ages of the rock strata are the law of superposition of strata and the principle of cross-cutting.

  • The law of superposition of strata states that "in an undisturbed sequence of rock strata, the oldest layer is usually at the bottom and the youngest on top".
  • From this law we understand that the oldest layer will be at the bottom if the rock has not been disturbed.
  • Here the rock has been disturbed by folding and we need to unravel to fold and see how the rock sequence originally was laid.

The principle of cross-cutting states that "faults are younger than the rocks they cut through". Structures in rocks are younger than rock layers they cut through.

A fault or joint will only pass through a rock that has been formed before it occurred. Subsequent rocks will be younger than the fault.

Hey can someone help me and show work please
Ivahew [28]

Answer: 2.54g

Explanation:

Molar Mass of H2O2 = (2x1) + (2x16) = 34g/mol

1mole (34g) of H2O2 contains 6.02x10^23 molecules

Therefore Xg of H2O2 will contain 4.5x10^22 molecules i.e

Xg of H2O2 = (34x4.5x10^22)/6.02x10^23 = 2.54g

A buffer is prepared by dissolving 0.80 moles of NH3 and 0.80 moles of NH4Cl in 1.00 L of aqueous solution. If 0.10 mol of NaOH
Vikki [24]

Answer:

a. 10.54

Explanation:

reaction is

NH₃ +  NaOH   -----------------NH₄Cl + H₂O

0.10 mol NaOH will consume 0.10 mol NH₃ thereby decreasing the initial amount of moles NH₃ and increasing that of NH₄Cl

mol NH₃  = 0.80 - 010 = .70

mol NH₄Cl = 0.80 + .10 = 0.90

pH = pKₐ + log (( NH₃/NH₄Cl))

pH =  9.26 + log (( 0.90 + 0.70)) = 9.26 + 0.11 = 10.54

How does the attraction between particles affect the ability of a solvent to dissolve in a substance
Anni [7]

Explanation:

The attraction between solute particles affect its ability to dissolve in the solution because more is the attraction between particles less will be the chances that solute particles will combine to the solvent particles.

As a result, there will be decrease in solubility with increase in force of attraction between solute particles.

Whereas when there is less force of attraction between solute particles then more easily solute particles will combine with the solvent particles.

Hence, with decrease in force of attraction between solute particles, the rate of dissolution will increase.

PLS HELP! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! 50 PTS
AveGali [126]

Answer:

from the pic:

empirical \: formular :  \:  \: C  _{2}H _{3}O _{2}

since molar mass is 118.084 g/mol;

(C  _{2}H _{3}O _{2}) _{n} = 118.084 \\ C  _{2n}H _{3n}O _{2n} = 118.084 \\(12 \times 2)  _{n} + (1 \times 3) _{n} + (16 \times2 ) _{n} = 118.084 \\ 24_{n} + 3_{n} + 32_{n} = 118.084 \\ 59_{n} = 118.084 \\ n = 2

{ \boxed{ \bf{molecular \: formular :  \: C  _{4}H _{6}O _{4}}}}

It is an aldehyde with structure ( second pic )
