Answer:

A. 1613 °C

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is located just below the Earth’s crust.

It must be molten or semi-molten, so that convection currents can move the tectonic plates above it.

Rocks start to melt at about 1300 °C, so a temperature of 1613 °C sounds about right.

Consider the equilibrium reaction and its equilibrium constant expression. Br 2 ( g ) + 2 NO ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − 2 NOBr ( g ) K = [ NO

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

$K_2=\frac{[NOBr]^4_{eq}}{[NO]^4_{eq}[Br]^2_{eq}}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the equilibrium condition, the equilibrium constant is defined via the law of mass action, which states that the division between the concentrations of the products over the concentration of the reactants at equilibrium equals the equilibrium constant, for the given reaction:

$2 Br_2 ( g ) + 4 NO ( g ) \rightleftharpoons 4NOBr ( g )$

The suitable equilibrium constant turns out:

$K_2=\frac{[NOBr]^4_{eq}}{[NO]^4_{eq}[Br]^2_{eq}}$

Or in terms of the initial equilibrium constant:

$K_2=K_1^2$

Since the second reaction is a doubled version of the first one.

Best regards.

explain how the number of valence electrons in atoms relate to their bonding with other atoms to form molecules ?????

Westkost [7]

valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.

For example: H2O

O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron

O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable

O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.

Which of the following (with specific heat capacity provided) would show the smallest temperature change upon gaining 200.0 J of

Brut [27]

Answer: The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

$q=mC\times \Delta T$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

Option a: 50.0 g Fe, $C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC$

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

Option b: 50.0 g water, $C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC$

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

Option b: 25.0 g Pb, $C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC$

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

Option d: 25.0 g Ag, $C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC$

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

Option e: 25.0 g granite, $C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC$

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Which of the following can be characterized as a physical change?

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

D. Sweat evaporates from your skin

Explanation:

A physical change is a reversible process, no new substance is formed. A physical change does not affect the chemical composition of a substance.

Sweat evaporation from the skin is a physical change, because the change that occur is merely a change of state, Liquid to Gaseous state, no new substance is formed.
