Which phrases describe clastic sedimentary rocks? Check all that apply.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Romashka [77]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

A clastic sedimentary rock is a rock that is formed from pre-existing rock materials and minerals. This materials have been transported to their new positions by the agents of denudation.

  1. Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of rock fragments predominantly.
  2. The matrix is usually remnants of other rocks.
  3. A cementing material can form between clasts and holds them in place. Cements are usually iron oxides, calcite e.t.c.
  4. These rock types are usually formed from mechanincal weathering of rocks
  5. Mechanical weathering breaks down rocks into chunks.
  6. Examples are breccia, conglomerates, e.t.c.

A sample of sugar (C12H22O11) contains
Mariana [72]

Answer:

0.25 mol

Explanation:

Use the formula n=N/NA

n= number of mols

N =  number of particles

Nᵃ = Avogadros constant = 6.02 x \\10^{23

So, n= \frac{1.505 X 10^{23} }{6.02 X 10^{23}}

The 10 to the power of 23 cancels out and you are left with 1.505/6.02, which is approximately 1/4. This is the same as 0.25 mol.

Hope this helped :)

Compare the first ionization energy of sodium to that of potassium
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Sodium is higher than Potassium in thesame group

Explanation:

Sodium and potassium are the elements present in the first group of the periodic table. In group, atomic size increases from top to bottom this implies that even atomic radius increases. This causes less attraction force by nucleus on the electrons of outermost orbit of the atom and hence reduces the first ionisation energy, which is the energy required to remove the electron from the outermost orbit of an atom. So, as potassium is below sodium in the group, sodium has greater ionisation energy than potassium

A gas occupies 1200 litres at 2 atm pressure. To what pressure must it be compressed to occupy 60 litres at the same temperature
MArishka [77]

P2 = 40 atm

Explanation:

Given:

P1 = 2 atm

V1 = 1200 L

V2 = 60 L

P2 = ?

Using Boyle's law and solving for P2,

P1V1 = P2V2

P2 = (V1/V2)P1

= (1200 L/60 L)(2 atm)

= 40 atm

What is the difference between elimination and substitution reaction
jasenka [17]

Answer:

a) E2

b) SN2

c) SN2

Explanation:

A substitution reaction involves replacement of an atom or group in a molecule by another atom or group. An elimination reaction is the loss of two atoms from the same molecule leading to the formation of a multiple bond in the molecule.

We must note that primary alkyl halides never undergo SN1/E1 reactions. However, the presence of a strong bulky base such as tert BuO- , E2 reactions predominate. In the presence of strong bases such as OH^- and good nucleophiles such as I^-, SN2 mechanism predominates.
