Scientists use the theory of plate tectonics to understand the reasons volcanoes develop in

Firdavs [7]

Scientists use tectonics plates to understand the plates moving beneath the volcano.

<h3>What are tectonic plates?</h3>

According to the widely recognized scientific hypothesis known as plate tectonics, the Earth's lithosphere is made up of many sizable tectonic plates that have been steadily moving for nearly 3.4 billion years. Our globe would look drastically different if it weren't for plate tectonics. We have a stable climate, mineral and oil deposits, and oceans with a chemical balance that supports life thanks to the continuous recycling of the Earth's crust. Even now, every few hundred million years, it offers evolution a boost. The plates fit tightly against one another and sit on the heated, molten rock of the Earth's mantle like fragments of a broken shell. The plates move as a result of the heat produced by nuclear processes occurring inside the planet.

How many grams of aluminum are required to react with 35 mL of 2.0 M hydrochloric acid, HCl?__ HCl + __ Al --> __ AlCl3 + __

kiruha [24]

Answer:

0.6258 g

Explanation:

To determine the number grams of aluminum in the above reaction;

determine the number of moles of HCl
determine the mole ratio,
use the mole ratio to calculate the number of moles of aluminum.
use RFM of Aluminum to determine the grams required.

<u>Moles </u><u>of </u><u>HCl</u>

35 mL of 2.0 M HCl

2 moles of HCl is contained in 1000 mL

x moles of HCl is contained in 35 mL

$x \: mol \: = \: \frac{2 \: \times \: 35}{1000} \\ = 0.07 \: moles \:$

We have 0.07 moles of HCl.

<u>Mole </u><u>ratio</u>

Balanced equation

6HCl(aq) + 2Al(s) --> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)

Hence mole ratio = 6 : 2 (HCl : Al

but moles of HCl is 0.07, therefore the moles of Al;

$= \frac{2}{6} \times 0.07 \\ \: = 0.0233333 \: moles$

Therefore we have 0.0233333 moles of aluminum.

<u>Grams of </u><u>Aluminum</u>

We use the formula;

$grams \: = moles \: \times \: rfm$

The RFM (Relative formula mass) of aluminum is 26.982g/mol.

Substitute values into the formula;

$= 0.0233333 \: moles \: \times \: 26.982 \: \frac{g}{mol} \\ = 0.625799 \: grams$

The number of grams of aluminum required to react with HCl is 0.6258 g.

An unknown metal has a mass of 86.8 g. When 5040 J of heat are added to the sample, the sample temperature changes by 64.7 ∘ C .

grandymaker [24]

Answer: The specific heat of the unknown metal is $0.897J/g^0C$

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= $5040$ Joules

m= mass of substance = 86.8 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = $T_i$

Final temperature of the water = $T_f$

Change in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(64.7)^0C$

Putting in the values, we get:

$5040=86.8\times c\times 64.7^0C$

$c=0.897J/g^0C$

The specific heat of the unknown metal is $0.897J/g^0C$

Imagine mixing 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt with 2 cups of ammonia. How much precipitate would be produced? Describe the amount of

barxatty [35]

The amount of precipitate produced will be proportional to the amount of NH₃ reacted with water to produce NH₄OH.

<h3>What is precipitate?</h3>

Precipitates are the crystal type formation, when the solute is no more dissolving in the solvent.

Imagine mixing 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt with 2 cups of ammonia, the reaction is

2NH₃ + MgSO₄ + 2H₂O → Mg(OH)₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₄

The amount of precipitate produced will be proportional to the amount of NH₃ reacted with water to produce NH₄OH.
