Answer:

The correct answers are "They travel slower than P waves", "They result in much ground motion" and " They are produced by P and S waves".

Explanation:

A surface wave can travel through the existing interface between Earth and air, as well as between Earth and water. A clear example of this type of waves are Love and Rayleigh waves. They travel slower than primary waves, produce large movements in the ground and are produced by primary and secondary waves.

Which of the following statements is not true regarding acids? (3 points)

horsena [70]

Answer:

Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.

Explanation:

What is said in the statement corresponds to a Lewis base, not an acid. For example, NH3 is a Lewis base, since it is capable of donating its pair of electrons. Trimethylborane (Me3B) is a Lewis acid, since it is capable of accepting a solitary pair.
