Sand doesn't directly cause weathering because sand is made via weathering. When rocks get weathered they become sand. But maybe when the sand and wind work together they might be able to weather some rocks

Sand is used to cause weathering but it alone does not cause weathering. (Pretty sure)

What are hybrid orbitals?

Ann [662]

Hybrid Orbitals: are used to describe the orbitals in covalently bonded atoms sp,sp2,sp3

You can find the hybridization by adding the number of bonded atoms and the number of lone pairs.

For example in BF3. The central atom (B) is bonded to three atoms. So the hybridization is sp2

In NH3, the central atom (N) is bonded to three atoms and has one lone pair. The hybridization is sp3

Would a thermos without a lid with water in it be an open or closed system? I'm so confused... also please explain your answer,

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

. A closed system allows only energy transfer but no transfer of mass. Example: a cup of coffee with a lid on it, or a simple water bottle. ... In reality, a perfectly isolated system does not exist, for instance hot water in a thermos flask cannot remain hot forever.
