Answer: Option (D)

Explanation: In order to support the theory of continental drift, evidences has been found such as, the same rock types were found in different continents. Similar plant and animal fossils have been found in different continents.

But the salt analysis from the ocean water rock samples were not a part of this theory because rocks containing similar amount of salt does not help in supporting the continental drift theory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A water bath in a physical chemistry lab is 1.85m long, 0.810m wide and 0.740m deep. If it is filled to within 2.57 in from the

Answer:

The volume of water in water bath is 1,011 Liters.

Explanation:

Length of the water bath, L = 1.85 m

Width of the water bath, W= 0.810 m

Height of the water bath ,H= 0.740 m

Height of the water in water bath, h= 0.740 m - 2.57 inches

1 m = 39.37 inch

$= 0.740 m - \frac{2.57}{39.37} m = 0.6747 m$

Volume of the water in bath = L × W × h

$=1.85 m\times 0.810 m\times 0.6747 m=1.011 m^3$

$1 m^3=1000 L$

$1.011 m^3=1.011\times 1000 L=1,011 L$

The volume of water in water bath is 1,011 Liters.

Why do two oxygen atoms form a double covalent bond?

elena-s [515]

A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
