Alfred Wegner was the first person to propose the idea that all seven continents were all one supercontinent called "Pangea". Everyone considered his theory to be a joke until he found evidence to back up his theory. His evidence was the matching mountain ranges, fossils, certain species, and more over different continents. Also that all the seven continents fit together like puzzle pieces. I hope this helps! :)

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

c. precipitation

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced net ionic equation.

Cl⁻(aq) + AgNO₃(ag) ⇒ AgCl(s) + NO₃⁻ (ag)

What kind of reaction is this?

a. acid-base. No, because the reactants are not acids and bases.

b. redox. No, because all the species have the same oxidation numbers in the reactants and the products

c. precipitation. Yes, because an insoluble compound (AgCl) is produced, which then precipitates.

Question 7 of 15
Crazy boy [7]

Answer: 0.4 moles

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas V = 11L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

11L = 11dm3)

Temperature T = 25°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(25°C + 273 = 298K)

Pressure P = 0.868 atm

Number of moles N = ?

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

0.868atm x 11dm3 = n x (0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 298K)

9.548 atm dm3 = n x 24.47atm dm3mol-1

n = (9.548 atm dm3 / 24.47atm dm3 mol-1)

n = 0.4 moles

Thus, there are 0.4 moles of the gas.

Consider the reaction below.
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

  • <u>First choice: 0.042</u>

Explanation:

Given decomposition reaction:

  • 1PCl₅ (g) ⇄ 1PCl₃ + 1Cl₂(g)

Equilibrium constant:

  • K_{eq}=\frac{[PCl_3]^1[Cl_2]^1}{[PCl_5]^1}

Stoichiometric coefficients and powers equal to 1 are not usually shown as they are understood, but I included them in order to shwow you how they intervene in the equilibrium expressions: each concentration is raised to a power equal to the respective stoichiometric coefficient in the equilibrium equation.

So, your calculations are:

K_{eq}=\frac{(0.020M)(0.020M)}{0.0095M}=0.042M

The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.

Use the periodic table to select the element that best fits each of the following descriptions. which element below has properti
xenn [34]

Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.
