What type of stress results when two plates push against one another?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natasha2012 [34]3 years ago
3 0

When two plates push against each other shear stress will happem because they move in opposite directions. In this case the force of the stress pushes some of the crust in different directions. When this happens, a large part of the crust can break off, which makes the plate size smaller.

Convert 1.248×1010 g to each of the following units.
Leona [35]

Answer:

a) 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

Explanation:

a) Since 1000 g = 1 kg we can convert grams to kg by multiplyig any given quantity in grams by the conversion factor ( 1 kg / 1000 g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) Since 1 Mg = 1 x 10⁶ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (  1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g) = 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) Since 1 mg = 1 x 10⁻³ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g) = 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) Since 1 metric ton = 1000 kg and 1000 g = 1 kg, we can use these conversions factors: ( 1 kg / 1000 g) and (1 ton / 1000 kg):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * ( 1 kg / 1000 g) * ( 1 ton / 1000 kg) = 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

How does maximum boiling azeotropic mixture is separated using fractional distillation?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

By heating the mixture to maximum boiling point and then the solution is distilled at a constant temperature without having a change in composition.

Explanation:

An azeotropic mixture is also called a constant boiling mixture and it is a mixture of two or more liquids whose proportions cannot be altered by simple distillation due to the fact that when an azeotropic mixture is boiled, the vapor has the same proportions of constituents as the unboiled mixture.

Now, maximum boiling azeotropic mixture are the solutions with negative deviations that have an intermediate composition  for which the vapor pressure of the solution is minimum and as a result, the boiling point is maximum. At that point, the solution will distill at a constant temperature without having a change in composition.

Use the ideas of the Kinetic Theory to explain the following. A sealed container contains nitrogen gas. The pressure of a gas is
zubka84 [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

When the temperature increases, the molecules of the gas gain energy. Therefore, they move faster.

This causes the molecules to hit the walls of the container more frequently and with greater force. Hence the pressure inside the container increases.
