Answer:

Gravity drives all mass wasting.

Explanation:

Mass wasting can be defined as the process of wasting away of earth's outer crust. This movement is also known as slope movement that causes large rock, soil, and debris to move downward, a force driven by gravity.

The term is often used interchangeably with landslide yet it is different. It is also known as mass movement as is cause massive downslope movement of rock, regolith, snow, ice, and-the-like on the earth's outer crust.

<u>All these movements are driven mainly by gravity. Gravity consantly tries to pull the rocks and soil down the slope but the resisting power. also known as shear strength, of moutains helps them to deny the gravitional force.</u>

Thus from the given options the statement that can be said to be true about mass wasting is that mass wasting is driven by gravity. So, the correct option is C.

How to calculate moles
blondinia [14]

Explanation:

First you must calculate the number of moles in this solution, by rearranging the equation. No. Moles (mol) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L) = 0.5 x 2. = 1 mol.

For NaCl, the molar mass is 58.44 g/mol. Now we can use the rearranged equation. Mass (g) = No. Moles (mol) x Molar Mass (g/mol) = 1 x 58.44. = 58.44 g.

If water were a non-polar<br> Molecule
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Water would not be able to transport nutrients -‐-‐ in plants, or in our bodies -‐-‐ nor to dissolve and transport waste products out of our bodies. ... Cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and surface tension: would decrease because without the +/-‐ polarity, water would not form hydrogen bonds between H20 molecules.

As you go down a family or group on the periodic table *
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The elements become less reactive.

Explanation:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction and reactivity increases because of greater electron affinity.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased. The electron affinity decreases because of shielding effect and thus atom become less reactive.

Convert the following with the correct number of significant figures:
larisa [96]

Answer:

1.78 × 10⁹ μg

Explanation:

We have to convert 1.78 kg to μg.

Step 1: Convert 1.78 kilograms to grams

We will use the conversion factor 1 kg = 10³ g.

1.78 kg × 10³ g/1 kg = 1.78 × 10³ g

Step 2: Convert 1.78 × 10³ grams to micrograms

We will use the conversion factor 1 g = 10⁶ μg.

1.78 × 10³ g × 10⁶ μg/1 g = 1.78 × 10⁹ μg
