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.

.What threatens the newly hatched chicks?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

rats. that's all i know of Just about everything except the mother hen if they are natural hatch. Even when you incubate them there are threats. The healthy chicks will mob the weak ones, the older chicks (even by a day) will pick on the younger ones. Temperature extremes will threaten them as they need warm, humid conditions with gradual drops in surrounding temps in the brooder box. Early disease is sometimes a problem and all chicks should be started on medicated chick feed for the first few weeks to prevent several digestive diseases. Even the water dispenser can be a threat as newly hatched chicks will immerse themselves in an open water container so care should be taken to supply water in a self feeding covered dish.

How many atoms are there in 4.13 moles of nickel (Ni)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Ni= ?

Number of moles of Ni = 4.13 mol

Solution:

we will calculate the number of atoms of Ni by using  Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

4.13 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ atoms /1 mol

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Setler [38]
<span>Since the early 1990s, geneticists have produced "genetically modified" crops that yield fruits and vegetables commonly found in U.S. supermarkets. Genetically modified plants (and also applicable to animals) in agriculture are those plants whose DNA are being modified using genetic engineering techniques.</span>

Copper(II) sulfide is formed when copper and sulfur are heated together. In this reaction,
storchak [24]

Answer:

The mass of copper(II) sulfide formed is:

= 81.24 g

Explanation:

The Balanced chemical equation for this reaction is :

Cu(s) + S\rightarrow CuS

given mass= 54 g

Molar mass of Cu = 63.55 g/mol

Moles = \frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

moles=\frac{54}{63.55}

Moles of Cu = 0.8497 mol

Given mass = 42 g

Molar mass of S = 32.06 g/mol

Moles = \frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

moles=\frac{42}{32.06}

Moles of S = 1.31 mol

Limiting Reagent :<em> The reagent which is present in less amount and consumed in a reactio</em>n

<u><em>First find the limiting reagent :</em></u>

Cu + S\rightarrow CuS

1 mol of Cu require = 1 mol of S

0.8497 mol of Cu should require  = 1 x 0.8497 mol

= 0.8497 mol of S

S present in the reaction Medium = 1.31 mol

S Required  = 0.8497 mol

S is present in excess and <u>Cu is limiting reagent</u>

<u>All Cu is consumed in the reaction</u>

Amount Cu will decide the amount of CuS formed

Cu + S\rightarrow CuS

1 mole of Cu  gives = 1 mole of Copper sulfide

0.8497 mol of Cu =  1 x 0.8497 mole of Copper sulfide

= 0.8497

Molar mass of CuS = 95.611 g/mol

Moles = \frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

0.8497 = \frac{given\ mass}{95.611}

Mass of CuS = 0.8497 x 95.611

= 81.24 g
