<u>Answer</u>:

"The earthquake shakes the position of land" is the most common way an earthquake changes Earth's land forms

<u>Explanation</u>:

Most of the times earthquake has been found to be making drastic reforms over the surface. With respect to the movement of ground other surface effects includes variation in the flow of groundwater, landslides and also in the direction flow change of mudflow. It affects the buildings, bridges, pipelines and railways and other important structures. the ground movement takes place due to the movement of underground rocks which found to be breaking near the faults. This release energy that further leads to movement of the tectonic plates. The generation of seismic wave from the energy.

The properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

water's high specific heat capacity
the large mass of water

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is the property of a substance that shows how much its temperature changes when it is exposed to heat.

Thus, the properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

water's high specific heat capacity
the large mass of water

A certain first-order reaction is 27.5 percent complete in 8.90 min at 25°C. What is its rate constant?

jeyben [28]

Answer:

$k= 0.145min^{-1}$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out necessary for us remember that the first-order kinetics is given by:

$ln(A/A_0)=-kt$

Whereas the 27.5% complete means A/Ao=0.275, and thus, we solve for the rate constant as follows:

$k=\frac{ln(A/A_0)}{-t}$

Then, we plug in the variables to obtain:

$k=\frac{ln(0.275)}{-8.90min}\\\\k= 0.145min^{-1}$

Regards!

A 0.500-g sample of KCl is added to 50.0g of water in a calprimeter (Figure 5.12) If the temperature decreases by 1.05C. what is

Sauron [17]

Answer : The reaction is endothermic.

Explanation :

Formula used :

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

where,

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $1.05^oC$

Q = heat involved in the dissolution of KCl = ?

m = mass = 0.500 + 50.0 = 50.5 g

c = specific heat of resulting solution = $4.18J/g^oC$

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

$Q=50.5g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 1.05^oC$

$Q=+221.64J$

The heat involved in the dissolution of KCl is positive that means as the change in temperature decreases then the reaction is endothermic and as the change in temperature increases then the reaction is exothermic.

Hence, the reaction is endothermic.
