What is a term called gradient in Earth Science?

Chemistry

goblinko [34]3 years ago
4 0
The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.

In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.

Identify ways to reduce the risk of liquid bumping while heating.
postnew [5]

The most common way of preventing bumping is by adding one or two boiling chips to the reaction vessel. However, these alone may not prevent bumping and for this reason it is advisable to boil liquids in a boiling tube, a boiling flask, or an Erlenmeyer flask.

Concentrated hydrochloric acid, HCl, comes with an approximate molar concentration of 12.1 M. If you are instructed to prepare 3
Semmy [17]

Answer:

28.20 mL of the stock solution.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molarity of stock solution (M1) = 12.1 M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 350.0 mL

Molarity of diluted solution (M2) = 0.975 M

Volume of stock solution needed (V1) =..?

The volume of stock solution needed can be obtained by using the dilution formula as shown below:

M1V1 = M2V2

12.1 x V1 = 0.975 x 350

Divide both side by 12.1

V1 = (0.975 x 350)/12.1

V1 = 28.20 mL.

Therefore, 28.20 mL of the stock solution will be needed to prepare 350.0 mL of 0.975 M HCl solution.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
