The idea that the earth is divided into a number of small plates that float on the mantle and slide,collide,and slip past each o

ther. Law or Theories

IgorLugansk [536]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Theories

Explanation:

It is theories because it was a generalistee abstract or thinking generalising the principle of fact about Earth tectonic plates ,it was formulated and concluded as plate tectonic theories after many findings. The theories conclude that the Earth has an outer layer called lithosphere and lies overly a plastic layer called asthenosphere. The lithosphere is divided into several plates and they move close to each other where they diverge, converge or slip over one another.

The number of oxygen atoms in 48.0g of oxygen gas
Doss [256]

Answer:

Now u have 48 g of O2. There. Fore mole=weight/M. W. Of oxygen. Therefor 3mole.

After that if we to multiply the avogadro number with it. So 3 *NA

Now u want only atom calculation then we have 2 molecule of oxygen then multiply it with 2 too.

So final claculation is =3*2*NA.

Determine the pH of a 0.048 M hypochlorous acid (HClO) solution. Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid (Ka = 4.0 ✕ 10−8 M).
storchak [24]

pH of 0.048 M HClO is 4.35.

<u>Explanation:</u>

HClO is a weak acid and it is dissociated as,

HClO ⇄ H⁺ + ClO⁻

We can write the equilibrium expression as,

Ka = $\frac{[H^{+}] [ClO^{-}]  }{[HClO]}

Ka = 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M

4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M = $\frac{x \times x }{0.048}

Now we can find x by rewriting the equation as,

x² =  4.0 × 10⁻⁸ × 0.048

   = 1.92 × 10⁻⁹

Taking sqrt on both sides, we will get,

x = [H⁺] = 4.38 × 10⁻⁵

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

     = - log₁₀[ 4.38 × 10⁻⁵]

   = 4.35

Why do hotspots appear to move in relation to tectonic plates?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:The heat that fuels the hot spot comes from very deep in the planet. This heat causes the mantle in that region to melt. The molten magma rises up and breaks through the crust to form a volcano. While the hot spot stays in one place, rooted to its deep source of heat, the tectonic plate is slowly moving above it.
