C. Magma from venus mantle erupted as lava.

Explanation:

A volcano is a land form which results from the eruption of molten rocks (lava) on the surface. Volcanic rocks are a special type of igneous rock that forms when molten rock cools and solidifies on the surface.

For a planet like Venus which is presently not active and little to no movement occurs within the plates, the volcanisim must have occurred when the planet was relatively young and it must have been millions of years ago.

It is widely believed that Venus was geologically active in times past. Mantle generated lava must have solidified on the surface in times past to have formed the volcano.

Evaluating other options:

Impact of space objects on Venus would lead to the formation of a crater which is a depression on the surface. The rock would be mostly metamorphic.

If water was ever present in Venus, they would have produced sedimentary rocks instead. The erosive power of water is not high enough to cut through the crust. Also, water would not aid the formation of volcanoes.

Heat is not enough to from volcanoes. Other factors are also in play.

A compound of mercury and oxygen is heated in order to decompose the compound. A 4.08 grams sample of mercury oxide upon heating
arlik [135]

Answer:

HgO (empirical formula)

Explanation:

4.08 - 3.78 = 0.3g (oxygen)

(\frac{4.08}{201})   \:  \:  \:  (\frac{0.3}{16} )

0.02 : 0.02

0.02/0.02 : 0.02/0.02

1 : 1 (ratio)

HgO ( empirical formula)

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O2 ( your equation correct)

A blacksmith heated an iron bar to 1445 °C. The blacksmith then tempered the metal by dropping it into 42,800 mL of
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

6626 g

Explanation:

Given that:

Density of water = 1.00 g/ml, volume of water = 42800 ml.

Since density = mass/ volume

mass of water = volume of water * density of water = 42800 ml * 1 g/ml = 42800 g

Initial temperature of water = 22°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

specific heat capacity for water = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT water = 45 - 22 = 23°C

For iron:

mass = m,  

specific heat capacity for iron  = 0.444 J/g°C

Initial temperature of iron = 1445°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.

ΔT iron = 45 - 1445 = -1400°C

Quantity of heat (Q) to raised the temperature of a body is given as:

Q = mCΔT

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of water is equal to the temperature loss by the iron.

Q water (gain) + Q iron (loss) = 0

Q water = - Q iron

42800 g ×  4.184 J/g°C × 23°C = -m × 0.444 J/g°C × -1400°C

m = 4118729.6/621.6

m = 6626 g

Why is the air pressure greater on the mountain top
Elena L [17]
Altitude is height above sea level. The density of air decreases with height. There are two reasons, at higher altitudes there is less air pushing down from above,and gravity is weaker farther from earths center.

The enzyme, phosphoglucomutase, catalyzes the interconversion
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

K_{eq = 19

ΔG° of the reaction forming glucose 6-phosphate =  -7295.06 J

ΔG° of the reaction  under cellular conditions = 10817.46 J

Explanation:

Glucose 1-phosphate     ⇄     Glucose 6-phosphate

Given that: at equilibrium, 95% glucose 6-phospate is  present, that implies that we 5% for glucose 1-phosphate

So, the equilibrium constant K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq= \frac{0.95}{0.05}

K_{eq = 19

The formula for calculating ΔG° is shown below as:

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = - (8.314 Jmol⁻¹ k⁻¹ × 298 k ×  1n(19))

ΔG° = 7295.05957 J

ΔG°≅ - 7295.06 J

b)

Given that; the concentration  for  glucose 1-phosphate = 1.090 x 10⁻² M

the concentration of glucose 6-phosphate is 1.395 x 10⁻⁴ M

Equilibrium constant  K_{eq can be calculated as:

K_{eq = \frac{[glucose-6-phosphate]}{[glucose-1-[phosphate]}

K_{eq}= \frac{1.395*10^{-4}}{1.090*10^{-2}}

K_{eq} = 0.01279816514  M

K_{eq} = 0.0127 M

ΔG° = - RTinK

ΔG° = -(8.314*298*In(0.0127)

ΔG° = 10817.45913 J

ΔG° = 10817.46 J
