Answer:

D. 5.6 g/cm^3

Explanation:

On the average seismic velocity increases with increase in depth due higher the pressure and more compaction

sand and shales in the Niger Delta Basin density–velocity relationship is

P = 0.31×V^0.25

A derivation of the original Gardner equation to calculate the average densities for sands and shales in wells.

ρ = α ×V^β

where

ρ = bulk density in g/cm3,

V = P-wave velocity,

α = 0.31 for V (m/s) and 0.23 for V(ft/s) and

β = 0.25.

Such that

ρ = 0.31 ×V^0.25

So the fastest seismic velocity will be in the densest material which is D. 5.6 g/cm3

The electronic configuration of an element is given below.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

It is reactive because it has to gain an electron to have a full outermost energy level.

Explanation:

The electron configuration of oxygen is 1s2,2s2 2p4.

Oxygen is in group six in the periodic table so it has six electrons in its valence shell. This means that it needs to gain two electrons to obey the octet rule and have a full outer shell of electrons (eight).

Of the below gases, which would deviate most from ideal gas behavior? CO O2 NH3 SF4
Vlad [161]

Answer:

For gases such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, or neon, deviations from the ideal gas law are less than 0.1 percent at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Other gases, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia, have stronger intermolecular forces and consequently greater deviation from ideality.

Answer: B

Refer:

Because water molecules are polar, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions. In general, polar solvents dissolve polar solutes, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. This concept is often expressed as “Like dissolves like.
