The theory that describes the motion and force driving earth's plates is Plate tectonics

Explanation:

Plate tectonics states that the outer shell of the Earth is divided into plates that glide and move over the mantle which is the surface of the earth.

The mantle is the rocky inner layer above the core of the Earth.

Plate tectonics helped the geologists to explain how continents could move around the planet.

There are 9 major plate tectonics , namely North American, Pacific, Eurasian, Australian, African, Indo - Australian,Indian South American and Antarctic. These plates have been named after the land form found on them.

Using the chemical equation below, how many moles of Al2O3 produce when 105 grams of Al are reacted? 2Al+Fe2O3 —> Al2O3+2Fe
topjm [15]

Answer:

1.94

Explanation:

moles = mass/Mr so you have 3.889 moles of aluminium, but because the ratio in the equation is 2:1 you need to halve it.

I'm afraid I won't pass. And very nervous. Can you help me please.
daser333 [38]
Just look at the number in front also called coefficient (you have to balance the equations first, but all the questions here are balanced, so no worries). for q1.
in the balanced equation, the number in front of aluminum oxide is 2 (2 - this number Al2O3) and for aluminium is 4 as in (4 Al). so the ratio is 2:4. simplified it is 1:2. or write it out fully
2 Al2O3: 4 Al
ignore everything after the number.
2:4
same as 1:2
Aluminium oxide to oxygen
2 Al2O3: 3 O2
2:3
aluminum to oxygen
4 Al: 3 O2
4:3

question 2
Mercury oxide to Mercury
2 HgO : 2 Hg
2:2
same as 1:1
Mercury oxide to oxygen
2 HgO : O2
since oxygen in this case does not have a number written in front of it, the default is 1.
2: 1.
you should be able to do the rest
