Heat and pressure deep in the earth change shale to slate. Why does this happen?

Chemistry
1 answer:
dedylja [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Because of the ground above and the molten iron core.

Explanation:

As you go deeper into the earth you have more and more of the earth above you that applies pressure on you. The heat near the very top of the plate is relatively low and it decreases by a little as you go down. But once you start to go down into the earth by hundreds of meters then the temperature starts to rise and it rises pretty quickly due to the heat being transferred from the molten iron outer core of the earth.

Helga [31]

Answer: 30.978

Explanation:

From the equation 2 moles of Fe will result in 3 moles copper

so .325 moles Fe will result in .4875 moles Cu

Cu weights 63.546 gm per mole

.4875 moles * 63.546 gm / mole = 30.978 gm of Cu

Nitrogen ion (Nitride) is ... Cation/Anion/Neither? # of protons? # of electrons? Charge (1-, 2-, 3-, 1+, 2+, 3+, or 0) Number o
OLga [1]

Answer:

3- is the charge and 8 dots on its Lewis dot structure.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since nitrogen is an element with five valence electrons (electrons on its outer shell), we infer that it needs three bonds to complete the octet, for which its charge, when forming nitride ions is 3-, which means it has received three electrons. Thus, when drawing the Lewis dot structure, it is evident that is will have 5+3 = 8 dots due to the electron reception.

Regards!
