C. Gravity acting on the edges of plates and convection in the mantle. So you were correct!

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is 'gravity acting on the edges of plates and convection in the mantle'.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The two processes which the scientists think that move the Earth's lithosphere plates are:

1) gravity acting on the edges of the plates; and

2) convection in the mantle

The gravitational body force pulling the slab downwards is balanced by the resistive forces acting on the plate while mantle convection is the main way through which the heat from Earth's interior is transferred to its surface.

How many moles of water are produced when 5 moles of hydrogen gas react with 2 moles of oxygen gas?
Marysya12 [62]

4 moles of water are produced

Explanation:

  • 4 moles of water are produced when 5 moles of hydrogen is reacted with 2 moles of oxygen gas
  • The balanced equation given is when 2 moles of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of oxygen and it forms 2 moles of water.
  • The equation we have to solve is the 5 moles of hydrogen is reacting with 2 moles of oxygen gas, we can write the equation as 5H_{2} +2O_{2} -->  4H_{2} O + H_{2}
  • This is the balanced equation when 5 moles of hydrogen reacts with 2 moles of oxygen. The balanced equation means the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms on both sides would be equal in number.

Which is the most likely to be reduced?
NISA [10]

Answer : The correct option is, Zn^{2+}

Explanation :

  • Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. That means, the loss of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.

  • Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.

Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.

According to the electrochemical series, Zn^{2+} most likely to be reduced because

Hence, the ion most likely to be reduced is Zn^{2+}.

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o
taurus [48]

Answer:

The concentration the student should write down in her lab is 2.2 mol/L

Explanation:

Atomic mass of the elements are:

Na: 22.989 u

S: 32.065 u

O: 15.999 u

Molar mass of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3 = (2*22.989 + 2*32.065 + 3*15.999) g/mol = 158.105 g/mol.

Mass of Na2S2O3 taken = (19.440 - 2.2) g = 17.240 g.

For mole(s) of Na2S2O3 = (mass taken)/(molar mass)

= (17.240 g)/(158.105 g/mol) = 0.1090 mole.

Volume of the solution = 50.29 mL = (50.29 mL)*(1 L)/(1000 mL)

= 0.05029 L.

To find the molar concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution prepared we use the formula:

= (moles of sodium thiosulfate)/(volume of solution in L)

= (0.1090 mole)/(0.05029 L)

= 2.1674 mol/L

alexira [117]

Answer: Combustion

Explanation:

Methane gas or natural gas is the hydrocarbon that reacts with oxygen as shown below: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O There are two types of combustion reactions: complete and incomplete combustion. Therefore there are four products, carbon dioxide, water, carbon, and carbon monoxide.
