Answer:

Hello! Your answer is Weathering.

Vikentia [17]3 years ago

The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.

What is the cell potential of an electrochemical cell that has the half -reactions shown below? Ni^ 2+ +2e Ni A| A|^ 3+ +3e^ -
Nadya [2.5K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

A. 1.4 V

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given the half reactions;

Ni²⁺(aq) + 2e → Ni(s)

Al(s) → Al³⁺(aq) + 3e

We are required to determine the cell potential of an electrochemical cell with the above half-reactions.

E°cell = E(red) - E(ox)

From the above reaction;

Ni²⁺ underwent reduction(gain of electrons) to form Ni

Al on the other hand underwent oxidation (loss of electrons) to form Al³⁺

The E.m.f of Ni/Ni²⁺ is -0.25 V and that of Al/Al³⁺ is -1.66 V

Therefore;

E°cell = -0.25 V - (-1.66 V)

         = -0.250V + 1.66 V

         = + 1.41 V

         = + 1.4 V

Therefore, the cell potential will be +1.4 V

The element carbon exists in several different forms. Pure carbon can be found in the form of diamonds, coal, and the graphite i
UNO [17]

Answer:

B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

Explanation:

The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.

  • These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
  • Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
  • As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.

For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.

 For example:

            <em>¹²₆C                           ¹³₆C                        ¹⁴₆C</em>

The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.

 Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;

    ¹²₆C  , number of neutrons  = 12 - 6  = 6

      ¹³₆C, number of neutrons  = 13 - 6  = 7

       ¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6  = 8

Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.
