Answer:
The scientist quoted above attempted to prove that:
- It took million of years in the formation of earth.
Explanation:
- The quote is from a book named Principles of Geology by Charles Lyell that was published in 1830. In this book, he has discussed about the changes occurred gradually in earth and its climate over a long period.
- As in his quote, he discussed about the movement of earth and then talks about marine animals embedded in the solid strata ( layer of a rock).
The relationship between volume and temperature at constant pressure is expressed in this statement:
- The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.
The relationship between the volume of a gas and temperature its temperature is defined by Charles Law. This law state that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure. It is illustrated mathematically thus:
V ∝ T or
V/T = constant
For example, if a balloon is filled with gas and placed in a cooling van, the nylon will reduce in size. But if it is heated up, the nylon will expand.
Therefore, option B correctly describes the relationship between volume and temperature at constant pressure.
