Fossils can not be formed in igneous rock because before it cooled from the liquid magma state, any renants of fossils would be destroyed and melted... they form in sedimentary because thats where they can be buried and perserved the easiest, metamorphic would destroy them from the pressures and temperatures involved in there formations

Any fossils that would have been in the original rocks would have melted when magma formed.

What is an example of how to supply activation energy to begin reaction
Sergio039 [100]

Heating the reaction flask on a hot plate is an example of supplying activation energy to begin a reaction.

Explanation:

<u>Definition:</u>

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to start a particular chemical reaction.

For example: When hydrogen and oxygen are mixed together it does not immediately start the reaction to form water. So, to start the reaction a small electric spark is provided or it is heated to provide some energy. This energy causes the molecules of hydrogen and water to react, thus producing even more molecules to react and finally water is formed.

Here the electric spark or the heat provided is the activation energy.

You want to know how many moles of gas your lungs can hold. You start off with a balloon that has 1.4 moles of gas and occupies
Mrrafil [7]

Number of moles : n₂ = 1.775 moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Moles = n₁ = 1.4

Volume = V₁=22.4 L

V₂=28.4 L

Required

Moles-n₂

Solution

Avogadro's hypothesis, at the same temperature and pressure, the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles  

The ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles

\tt \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{n_1}{n_2}

Input the values :

n₂ = (V₂ x n₁)/V₁

n₂ = (28.4 x 1.4)/22.4

n₂ = 1.775 moles

As Matter Changes States of matter does chemical composition stay the same or not
geniusboy [140]
Whether water is frozen, in a gaseous state, or is a liquid, it is still H2O. So the chemical composition does stay the same.
