How does the density of a gas affect the speed of sound

Chemistry
1 answer:
ZanzabumX [31]3 years ago
4 0

Increased density decreases the speed of sound in a medium. While increased density can mean increased rigidity, or stiffness, it is not always the case. Greater density can be due to each molecule or atom having more momentum, and being slower to respond to the vibration of its neighbor.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

A) MgCO₃ is insoluble

Explanation:

Based on the rules of solubility:

All nitrates are soluble. That means Pb(NO₃)₂ is soluble.

All ammonium ions are soluble. NH₄Br is soluble.

All phosphate are insoluble except when combined with group I ions (Li, Na, K...) K₃PO₄ is soluble.

Also, all carbonates are insoluble except when combined with group I ions. That means Li₂CO₃ is soluble and:

In which location would an ocean ridge most likely be located
Nastasia [14]
An ocean ridge is an underwater mountain system which is the result of tectonic plate movement. Its formation involves two processes: ridge-push and slab pull. The former occurs when the growing bulk of the ridge pushes the rest of the tectonic plate away from the ridge. Oftentimes, they go towards a subduction zone. In this zone, the latter, which is the slab pull comes into effect. This is the weight of the tectonic plate subducted or pulled down below the overying plate tagging along the rest of the plate behind it. 

They are generally located halfway between two continents.
