Answer:

The motivating force for seafloor spreading ridges is tectonic plate slab pull at subduction zones, rather than magma pressure, although there is typically significant magma activity at spreading ridges.

What is the oxidation number for iodine in Mg(IO3)2 ?

mestny [16]

The oxidation number of iodine is 5 in Mg(IO3)2 which can be calculated as
Mg(IO3)2
MgI2O6
As we know that
Mg has +2
O has -2
So,
(+2) + 2I + 6 (-2)=0
2 + 2I - 12 =0
10+ 2I =0
10 = 2I
I =5

A certain gas is present in a 15.0 LL cylinder at 2.0 atmatm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 4.0 atmatm the volume of

Helga [31]

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature and moles.

Mathematically, P = $\frac{k}{V}$

where, k = proportionality constant

Also, formula for initial pressure and volume is as follows.

$P_{i} = \frac{k_{i}}{V_{i}}$

or, $k_{i} = P_{i} \times V_{i}$

= $2 atm \times 15 L$

= 30 atm L

Now, we will calculate the value of $k_{f}$ as follows.

$k_{f} = P_{f} \times V_{f}$

= $4 atm \times 7.5 L$

= 30 atm L

Hence, as $k_{i} = k_{f}$ this means that it signifies that gas obeys boyle's law.

<u>Answer:</u> The gas produced when sodium phosphide reacts with water is phosphine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When sodium phosphide reacts with water molecule, it leads to the production of flammable, poisonous gas known as phosphine along with the production of sodium hydroxide.

The chemical reaction for the reaction of sodium phosphide with water follows the equation:

$Na_3P(aq.)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow PH_3(g)+3NaOH(aq.)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of sodium phosphide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 1 mole of phosphine gas and 3 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Hence, the gas produced when sodium phosphide reacts with water is phosphine.
