Hello, Lindaparker, a spit could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place. A spit is a permanent land form resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at a narrow angle out into the sea. Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

It could have been something to do with the rocky headland rubbing against the split. Just guessing though.

Which element would be expected to have chemical and physical properties closest to those of rubidium?

DIA [1.3K]

Rubidium is an element that belongs to Group 1. As such it will have physical properties similar to the other Group 1 elements. Rubidium is below Potassium in the periodic table but above Cesium. As such it would be most like one of those two elements.

Why does the temperature of the water stay the same when it melts and boils?

krok68 [10]

The temperature stays the same when a solid changes to a liquid because energy is required to break the forces between particles of water therefore changing the state of matter and separating the particles away from each other.

When a liquid boils, the energy is needed by the particles to escape the surface of the liquid and boil. Instead of raising the temperature, the energy goes into the particles' kinetic energy store so it has enough speed to escape the surface of the liquid.

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n

artcher [175]

Stoichiomety:

1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2

multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights

Atomic or molar weights:

C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol

Stoichiometry:

12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2

Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen

And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.

You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.

May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.

Which of the following is true of group 6A?

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Includes sulfur and gain two electrons

Explanation:

Includes Chlorine This option is wrong, Chlorine belongs to group VII.

Includes Sulfur This option is true, Group VI includes Oxygen, Sulfur, Selenium, Tellurium.

Gain 2 electrons . This option is true, Elements in group VI have six valence electrons so they gain to electrons to become estable.

Tend to form +2 ions This option is wrong, this elements form -2 ions

Have 5 valence electrons This option is wrong, this elements have 6 valence electrons.
