Answer:
147,558,601 sqkm
Explanation:
The earth is spherical in shape;
area of sphere = 4πr²
if 70.8% is covered by water then 100-70.8 will be land,
= 29.2%
area occupied by land = (29.2/100) * 4πr²
= 0.292*4*3.142*(6371)²
=147,558,601 sqkm
Explanation:
Chemical weathering is caused by rain water reacting with the mineral grains in rocks to form new minerals (clays) and soluble salts. These reactions occur particularly when the water is slightly acidic.
<span>The answer is anions. Cations are positively-charged ions (in this case K+) while anions are negatively-charged ions (in this case Cl-). The ions attract each other through electrostatic charges and arrange themselves in an ordered fashion to form a lattice</span>
Answer: The mass number of an oxygen isotope that has nine neutrons is 17 and isotope is called as Oxygen-17.
Explanation:
Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.
For a neutral atom:
Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of proton
Atomic number= Number of protons = 8
Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.
Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
Given: Number of neutrons = 9
Thus mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 8 + 9 = 17.
Isotopes are elements which have same atomic number but different mass number.
Thus the mass number of an oxygen isotope that has nine neutrons is 17 and isotope is called as Oxygen-17.
