Answer:
Limestone is easily eroded from above and below.
Explanation:
The Florida bedrock is largely made of limestone. Because limestone is a rock that is easily eroded, the landscape of a great part of Florida is classified as karstic.
Karstic landscapes are dotted by sinkholes, underground rivers, caves, and springs. The more acidic the groundwater or rainwater, the faster and more easily the limestone will succumb to erosion.
In this way, underground rivers, streams, runoff, rain, and underground water pooled in caves have all carved out gaps and caverns in the weak limestone bedrock.
Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Chemical formula of a secondary amide is R'-CONH-R, where R and R' can be same of different alkyl or aryl groups. Here, the hydrogen atom of amide is attached to more electronegative oxygen atom of the C=O group.
Therefore, the hydrogen atom will be more strongly held by the electronegative oxygen atom. As a result, there will be strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase of secondary amide.
Whereas chemical formula of nitriles is RCN, ester is RCOOR' and acid chlorides are RCOCl. As no hydrogen bonding occurs in any of these compounds because hydrogen atom is not being attached to an electronegative atom.
Thus, we can conclude that secondary amides are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase.
Answer:
(c) The retention time would be higher (d) The retention time would be lower.
Explanation:
For the polar solutes which were separated using the hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) with a strongly polar bonded phase, the retention time would be higher if eluent were changed from 80 vol% to 90 vol% acetonitrile in water.
However, for the polar solutes which were separated using the normal-phase chromatography on bare silica with methyl t=butyl ether and 2-propanol solvent, the retention time would be lower if the eluent were changed from 40 vol% to 60 vol% 2-propanol.
