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

There pls help it’s due in 5 minutes!! Thanks if you do!
sergey [27]

Explanation:

well when you heat ice the individual molecules gain kinetic energy. but until the temperature reaches it's melting point they don't have the energy to break bonds and hold their crystal structure. So, the temperature remains constant until the ice has melted. Hope this helped. Good luck on your project!

Sketch the structure of the nitrogen containing product that is formed when ethalymine reacts with water.
Igoryamba

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

Ethylamine has an N atom with a lone pair of electrons.

It can act as a Brønsted-Lowry base and accept a proton from water and become an ethylammonium ion.

The structure of the ion is shown below (there is a C atom at each of the four-way bond intersections).

A reaction mechanism is defined as the sequence of reaction steps that define the pathway from reactants to products. Each step
olga55 [171]

Answer: (a) K *[A][B]^2

(b) The answer is B

Explanation:

A)

Step1:A+B<--> C (fast)

Step2: B+C→D(slow)

Rate depends on slowest step.

so,

rate = k' [B][C] ...eqn 1

But C is intermediate.so use step 1

Since 1st step is an equilibrium,

Kc = [C] /[A][B]

so,

[C] = Kc [A][B] ...eqn 2

put eqn 2 in eqn 1

rate = k' *[B] * Kc [A][B]

= k'Kc*[A][B]^2

= K *[A][B]^2 {writing k'Kc = K}

Answer: K *[A][B]^2

B)

Answer is B

Since rate depends on slowest step.

if slowest step is:

X2Y2+Z2→X2Y2Z+Z

then only,

rate= k[X2Y2][Z2]

Answer: B
