Answer:

Rigid plates that move around Earth's surface is called tectonic plates. 

Explanation:

Lithosphere is rigid and relatively cold and is the outer surface of the planet. The convective motions of maintenance break the lithosphere into plates.

This place that a form can move in any direction, can move towards each other, can move away and push each other which is the reason for formation of mountains for shifting of continents for making of ocean basin.

The thermochemical equation for the reaction of carbon dioxide with sulfur dioxide is shown below. How can the reaction be descr

prisoha [69]

Answer: d. has high activation energy

Activation energy is the energy that a system requires to start a certain process. Also, it is the minimum energy necessary for a given chemical reaction to occur. For a reaction to occur between two molecules, they must collide in the correct orientation and have a minimum amount of energy equal to the activation energy.

As the molecules approach, their electron clouds repel, so energy is required for the collision to occur and therefore the reaction. The activation energy comes from the heat of the system, that is, the translational, vibrational energy, etc. of each molecule. However, if this energy is not enough, the reaction will not be spontaneous.

A reaction between two molecules can be favored by supplying energy to the system. In the case raised in the question, energy equal to 1104 kJ is provided to the system to favor the next reaction

CO2 (g) + 2SO2 (g) → CS2 (g) + 3O2 (g)

Since the energy equal to 1104 kJ is included in the reactants, it can be deduced that it is the energy that is provided to the system for the reaction to occur. However, from the value of this energy it can not be said whether the system is endothermic or exothermic since it is a kinetic variable and the variables of this type do not allow predicting the thermodynamic behavior of a system.

Furthermore, it can be seen that the value of this energy is considerably high, therefore the reaction described has a high activation energy.

Which of the following (with specific heat capacity provided) would show the smallest temperature change upon gaining 200.0 J of

Brut [27]

Answer: The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

$q=mC\times \Delta T$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

Option a: 50.0 g Fe, $C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC$

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

Option b: 50.0 g water, $C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC$

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

Option b: 25.0 g Pb, $C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC$

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

Option d: 25.0 g Ag, $C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC$

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

Option e: 25.0 g granite, $C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC$

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

What volume does 0.482 mol of gas occupy at a pressure of 719 mmHg at 56 ∘C?

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The volume is 13, 69 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the temperature in Celsius into Kelvin and the pressure in mmHg into atm.

0°C= 273K---> 56°C= 56 + 273= 329K

760 mmHg----1 atm

719 mmHg----x= (719 mmHgx 1 atm)/760 mmHg= 0,95 atm

PV=nRT ---> V= (nRT)/P

V=( 0,482 molx 0,082 l atm/K mol x 329K)/0,95 atm

V=13,68778526 L

Please help me I have not gone over this in like 8 months and can not remember how to do it

Leona [35]

Answer:

91%

Explanation:

Since you are just trying to find the yield, take the moles of the substance from the products and divide it by the mol value of the reactants. Multiply by 100 to find percentage

0.45 ÷ 0.41 = 0.91111...
