How does weathering change rock and minerals

2 answers:

4 0

Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away.

Weathering is the process of breaking large rocks and boulders into much smaller ones. Weathering can be brought about by wind and water mostly. Sometimes even biological forces account for some types of weathering.

Which of the following factors could you change in a system and not change its induced EMF?

krok68 [10]

The options attached to the question above are listed below:
A. Magnetic field.
B. Type of wire.
C. Velocity of the wire.
D. Length of the wire in the field.

ANSWER
The correct option is B.
The factors that determine the induced current in a system are: the number of wires in the coil, the strength of the magnetic field and speed of armature rotation [speed of cutting]. Generally, the induced electromotive force across a conductor is equal to the rate at which magnetic flux is cut by the conductor. The type of wire used does not affect the induced EMF.

A tablet of Pain Be Gone Aspirin, which had a mass of 1.213 g, was pulverized and 1.159 g were dissolved in 10.0 mL of ethyl alc

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

a. Moles of $NaOH$ = 0.001643 moles

b. 0.296 g

c. 0.3098 g

d. Not acceptable

Explanation:

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Or,

$Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Given :

For $NaOH$ :

Molarity = 0.1052 M

Volume = 15.62 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 15.62×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of $NaOH$ :

$Moles=0.1052 \times {15.62\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of $NaOH$ = 0.001643 moles

The reaction of NaOH with the acetylsalicylic acid is in the ratio of 1:1.

Thus, Moles of NaOH = Moles of acetylsalicylic acid = 0.001643 moles

Molar mass of acetylsalicylic acid = 180.16 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.001643 moles * 180.16 g/mol = 0.296 g

1.159 g of sample contains 0.296 g of acetylsalicylic acid

1.213 g of sample contains $\frac{0.296}{1.159}\times 1.213$ g of acetylsalicylic acid

Mass of acetylsalicylic acid = 0.3098 g = 309.8 mg

d. Sample contains = 309.8 mg

Manufacturer claiming = 315 mg to 335 mg

Thus , it is not acceptable.

In eukaryotes, the process of cell division is called mitosis true or false quick pls :)

mamaluj [8]

True. Mitosis is a part of the call cycle when replicated chromosomes are separated into new nuclei. It is a for if eukaryotic cell division that produces two daughter cells with the same genetic components as the parent cells.

NISA [10]

Answer:

C. involve the attraction of opposite charges

Explanation:

Ionic bonding involves the attraction between oppositely charged ions, as in Na⁺ Cl⁻.

Covalent bonding involves the attraction between negatively charged electrons and positivey charged nuclei, as in a C-H bond.

A is wrong. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons.

B is wrong. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons.

D is wrong. Ionic bonds are usually stronger than covalent bonds.
