An earthquake happens when tectonic plates move against each other. A oceanic and a continental tectonic plates might move against each other. When that happens water is pushed upwards and it creates ripples that then move towards land. It's like throwing a rock in water but a lot bigger. I can't post external links on Brainly but you can find more information about tsunami's on Google

What would happen to the block if it had a density of 0.500 kg/L and was placed in the same 100.0 L tank of water?
raketka [301]
I’m not sure if there was important information in the question before this one, but the answer based on the info I have is B.

The density of water is 1kg/L. Since the density of the block is less, it will float.

What expression approximates the volume of O2 consumed, measure at STP, when 55 g of Al reacts completely with excess O2?2 Al(s)
nikdorinn [45]

Answer : The volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

4Al(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3(s)

First we have to calculate the moles of Al.

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{\text{Mass of }Al}{\text{Molar mass of }Al}

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mole

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{55g}{27g/mol}=2mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of O_2.

From the reaction we conclude that,

As, 4 mole of Al react with 3 moles of O_2

So, 2 mole of Al react with \frac{3}{4}\times 2=0.75\times 2 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the volume of O_2 consumed.

As we know that, 1 mole of substance occupies 22.4 liter volume of gas.

As, 1 mole of O_2 occupies 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

So, 0.75\times 2 mole of O_2 occupies 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 liter volume of O_2 gas

Therefore, the volume of O_2 consumed are, 0.75\times 2\times 22.4 L.
