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.

4. How many moles are in 54.0 grams of Silver?
sineoko [7]
4. Molar mass of silver m Ms~=108 g/mol
Hence there are n=54*(1/108)=0.5 mols of Silver in 54 grams of Silver.

5. 6.3*(108/1)=680.4g

6. Avogadro's number : Na~=6.022×10^23<span>. </span>
6.0*(6.022*10^23/1)=36.132*10^23 atoms

7. Molar mass of Krypton : Mk=84 g/mol
112/84=1.33 moles of Kr

8. 1.93*10^24*(1/(6.022×10^23))=3.2 moles KF

9. Molar mass of Silicon : Ms=28 g/mol
86.2*(1/28)*(6.022×10^23/1)=18.5*10^23 atoms of silicon

10. Molar mass of Magnesium : M1=24 g/mol
4.8*10^24*(1/(6.022×10^23))*(24/1)=191 g Mg

An atom of gold has a mass of 3.271 x 10-22g. How many atoms of gold are in 5.00g of gold?
rosijanka [135]
To get the number of gold atoms, you have to divide the mass of the gold by the mass of the gold atom. It follows this simple equation  \frac{mass of gold}{mass of gold atom}. 

Let x be the number of gold atoms. Plug in the values to a calculator.

x = \frac{5.00g}{3.271 x 10-22g}
Both have the same units so the unit gram(g) can be cancelled. 
x then would be equal to 1.53x10^22. So there are 1.53x10^22 atoms of gold in 5 g of gold
