How do S and P waves move through a solid material?

Chemistry
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]4 years ago
6 0

P waves move quickly and S waves move slowly through solids,

Explanation:

S and P waves can move through a solid material. P waves generally moves quickly and S-waves move slowly through solids.

S and P waves elastic seismic waves.

  • P waves are primary waves travels through any material medium. They move faster than S-waves.
  • S waves are secondary waves that moves through solid only. They are shear waves.
  • They cannot move through liquids and gases because these materials cannot be sheared.

At a seismic station, P waves arrives first because they have a higher velocity

Identify the balanced chemical equation that represents a single displacement reaction. CF4 2Br2 ⟶ CBr4 2F2 3H2SO4 2Al ⟶ Al2(SO4
Simora [160]

Answer:

3H₂SO₄ + 2Al₂(SO₄)₃  → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

Explanation:

                           3H₂SO₄ + 2Al₂(SO₄)₃  → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

In this type of reaction, one substance is replacing another:

                      A + BC  →  AC + B

In a single displacement reaction, atoms replace one another based on the activity series. Elements that are higher in the activity series. Also, if the element that is to replace the other in a compound is more reactive the reaction will occur. If it is less reactive, there will be no reation.

In the first equation, fluorine is more reactive than bromine. Therefore, bromine cannot replace bromine.

In the second equation, the displacement is between hydrogen and aluminium. Hydrogen is lower in the activity series, this implies that aluminum will replace it.

What is the ph of a soft drink in which the major buffer ingredients are 6.6 g of nah2po4 and 8.0 g of na2hpo4 per 355 ml of sol
Alex777 [14]
The Relative Formula Mass of NaH2PO4 is 120 g/mol
Therefore, the number of moles = 6.6/120
                                                   = 0.055 moles of NaH2PO4 which is also equal to the number of moles of H2PO4.
[H2PO4-] = Number of moles oof H2PO4-/Volume of the solution in L
  = 0.055/ ( 355 ×10^-3)
  = 0.155 M
Na2HPO4 undergoes complete dissociation as follows;
Na2HPO4 (aq)= 2Na+ (aq) + HPO4^2- (aq)

1 mole of Na2HPO4 = 142 g/mol
Therefore; number of moles = 8.0/142
                                             = 0.0563 moles
 [HPO4 ^-2] is given by no of moles HPO4^2- /volume of the solution in L
     = 0.0563/(355×10^-3)
     =  0.1586 M
Both H2PO4^2- and HPO4^2- are weak acids the undergoes partial dissociation 
Ka of H2PO4- = 6.20 × 10^-8
 [H+] =Ka*([H2PO4-]/[HPO4(2-)]
        = (6.20 ×10^-8)×(0.155/0.1586)
        = 6.059 ×10^-8 M
pH = - log[H+]
     = - log (6.059×10^-8)
     = 7.218
