Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below

Which process takes place when large rocks crumble due to oxidation?

A) Erosion

B) Deposition

C) physical weathering

D) chemical weathering​

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Weathering can simply be defined as the breakdown of the top surface of rocks. <u>From this definition, it can be deduced that the question describes a type of weathering</u>. Weathering can be of two types; Physical weathering and chemical weathering.

Physical weathering is caused by physical components of the environment such as temperature, water and some activities of living organisms. Physical weathering does not alter the chemical composition of the rock. A <u>chemical weathering</u> is caused by a reaction between the components of the rock and another substance. This type of weathering <u>involves a chemical reaction (for example oxidation)</u> which leads to the breakdown of the rock.

How are energy storage molecules affected if there is LESS carbon dioxide?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

When there is less carbon (in the form of carbon dioxide) in abiotic matter, less carbon is available for producers making energy storage molecules. When there is more sunlight, producers can make more energy storage molecules from the carbon in carbon dioxide.

Hope this helps.

Convert 1.25 atm to bar.
Tasya [4]

Answer: 1.27 bar

Explanation:

1 atm = 1.01325 bar

1.25 atm = Z (let Z be the unknown value)

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

Z x 1 atm = 1.25 atm x 1.01325 bar

1 atm•Z = 1.2665625 atm•bar

To get the value of Z, divide both sides by 1 atm

1 atm•Z/1 atm = 1.2665625 atm•bar/1atm

Z = 1.2665625 bar

(Round up Z to the nearest hundredth as 1.27 bar)

Thus, 1.25 atm when coverted gives 1.27 bar

Give the formula for an ionic compound formed from each pair of ions
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Please, find the complete question in the picture attached.

Answer:

1. Na₂O

2. AlF₃

3. MgO

4. Ca₃P₂

Explanation:

1. Na⁺ and O²⁻

An ionic compound will be formed when two ions of opposite charge attract each other.

The positive ion is called cation and the negative ion is called anion.

Thus, every ionic compound has a cation and an anion electrostatically bonded.

The ions must combine in a proportion that genders a neutral compound: so you must have as many cations as negative charge has one anion and as many anions as positive charge has one cation.

This is, if the cation has charge +x, there will be x anions, and if the anion has charge -y, there will be y cations.

Simbolically:

Cation:A^{+x}\\ \\ Anion:B^{-y}\\ \\ Compound:A_yB_x

As you see, the subscripts for each element in the chemical formula are obtained by the exchage of the charges of the ions.

Then, for Na⁺ and O²⁻, the subscript for Na will be 2 and the subscript for O will be 1; and the formula of the ionic compound formed by this pair ot ions is:

  • Na₂O

2. Al³⁺ and F⁻

  • The subscript of Al will be 1 (because the F ion has charge 1-, and the subscript of F will be 3 (because the Al ion has charge +3).

Thus the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:

  • AlF₃

3. Mg²⁺ and S²⁻

  • The charge 2+ from Mg atom wil become the subscript 2 of S atom, and the charge 2- will become the subscript 2 of Mg atom:

That results in the formula: Mg₂S₂

Except for some special compounds, the chemical formula is simplified, dividing by the least common denominator. In this case, that means that the two 2 subscripts are simplified to 1, and the final chemical formula for the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:

  • MgO

4. Ca²⁺ and P³⁻

  • The charge 2+ from Ca will become subscript 2 for P and the charge 3- whill become subscript 3 for Ca.

Hence, the ionic compound formed by these two ions is:

  • Ca₃P₂

Calculate the standard molar enthalpy of formation, in kJ/mol, of NO(g) from the following data:
Paraphin [41]

The above question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the standard molar enthalpy of formation of NO(g) from the following data at 298 K:

N_2(g) + 2O_2 \rightarrow 2NO_2(g), \Delta H^o = 66.4 kJ

2NO(g) + O_2\rightarrow 2NO_2(g),\Delta H^o= -114.1 kJ

Answer:

The standard molar enthalpy of formation of NO is 90.25 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

N_2(g) + 2O_2 \rightarrow 2NO_2(g), \Delta H^o_{1} = 66.4 kJ

2NO(g) + O_2\rightarrow 2NO_2(g),\Delta H^o_{2} = -114.1 kJ

To calculate the standard molar enthalpy of formation

N_2+O_2\rightarrow 2NO(g),\Delta H^o_{3} = ?...[3]

Using Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

[1] - [2] = [3]

N_2+O_2\rightarrow 2NO(g),\Delta H^o_{3} = ?

\Delta H^o_{3} =\Delta H^o_{1} - \Delta H^o_{2}

\Delta H^o_{3}=66.4 kJ - [ -114.1 kJ] = 180.5 kJ

According to reaction [3], 1 mole of nitrogen gas and 1 mole of oxygen gas gives 2 mole of nitrogen monoxide, So, the standard molar enthalpy of formation of 1 mole of NO gas :

=\frac{\Delta H^o_{3}}{2 mol}

=\frac{180.5 kJ}{2 mol}=90.25 kJ/mol
