Answer: normal fault

A fault refers to a planar or curved fracture in the rocks of the Earth crust, in which compressional or tensional forces results in the displacement of the rock on the opposite side of the fracture. Fault may vary in the length of the fracture. A normal fault is a fault in which the hanging wall of the rock moves downward to the footwall. It occurs when the two blocks of rock are separated apart by the tensional forces.  

On the basis of the above information, the normal fault is the fault that should be found by the geologists in the rock.

Answer:

normal fault

Explanation:

In geology, faults are places where there are discontinuities in the volume of rocks or the ground, they can be caused by several different reasons the largest faults are created in places where two tectonic plates meet and collide, a normal fault happens when the hangin wall moves downward from the footwall at an angle.

The properties of two elements are listed below. Element Atomic radius (pm) Ionic radius (pm) First ionization energy (kJ/mol) E
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

K will give up an electron more easily than Br.

Explanation:

Electronegativity of an element is a property that combines the ability of its atom to lose and gain electrons.

The lower the electronegativity value, the more electropositive an element is and the more readily it loses electrons.

From the data given, we see that Br has an E.N value of 3.0 and K has an E.N value of 0.82.

Therefore, Br is highly electronegative and it is able to attract electrons to itself whereas K has a low E.N value. K will give up electrons more readily.

Lookinf at other information in the table, the larger atomic radius and lower ionizaton energy of K are all pointers to how readily it would be able to lose electrons.

We can conclude that K is even a metal.

Answer:

A) Mass = 32 g of KCl

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of potassium chloride produced = ?

Mass of potassium chlorate = 52 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2KClO₃     →       2KCl + 3O₂

Number of moles of KClO₃:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 52 g/ 122.55 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.424 mol

Now we will compare the moles of KClO₃ and KCl

             KClO₃      :       KCl

               2            :       2

          0.424         :       0.424

Mass of KCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.424 mol × 74.55 g/mol

Mass = 32 g
