Answer:

A) Elements

Explanation:

A mixture is a composite of two or more components that are combined physical and not through any chemical means. While a suspension is a mixture of a liquid and solid particles. Therefore, in both cases the components can be separated by some physical means.

A compound is a composite of two or more atoms which can be decomposed into simpler systems through chemical processes.

However, element is a single atom which can be neither be simplified any further by physical or chemical means.

If a person had the values for an objects density and volume, what value can be calculated
zavuch27 [327]

Hello there! With the values of density and volume, you would be able to find the object's mass.

Density is found by dividing the mass by the volume, so you could place in the values of the density and the volume to get the mass.

For example:

500 = mass/10

The 500 being density and 100 being volume. You would use simple math rules and multiply 10 by 500, and you'd get 5000, therefore using the density and volume values and giving you the mass.

I hope I could help you and have a great day!

Explain how earth plates and lithosphere are related
AnnyKZ [126]

Crust, the upper layer of the Earth, is not always the same. Crust under the oceans is only about 5 km thick while continental crust can be up to 65 km thick. Also, ocean crust is made of denser minerals than continental crust.

The tectonic plates are made up of Earth’s crust and the upper part of the mantle layer underneath. Together the crust and upper mantle are called the lithosphere and they extend about 80 km deep. The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere. All this moving rock can cause earthquakes.

The asthenosphere is ductile and can be pushed and deformed like silly putty in response to the warmth of the Earth. These rocks actually flow, moving in response to the stresses placed upon them by the churning motions of the deep interior of the Earth. The flowing asthenosphere carries the lithosphere of the Earth, including the continents, on its back.

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Film photography is another example ofchemical reaction by light. In this example, the chemical compounds coated on the film go through a chemical reaction. ... These plates (usually made of aluminum) are coated with a photosensitive compound consisting of a polymer and a photosensitivechemical system.
