"Asthenosphere" describes a section of Earth's structure below moving continents as parts of large plates.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

The asthenosphere denoted as the upper mantle of a very sticky, mechanically weak and flexible area in the earth. It is located below the surface of the lithosphere at depths of about 80 and 200 km (in terms of miles, 50 and 120). The boundary is commonly called the lithospheric LAB - asthenosphere.

The asthenosphere is nearly solid, though some of its regions could be molten below mid-ocean ridges for an instance. The lower asthenosphere boundary isn't well defined. The asthenosphere's thickness depends primarily on the temperature.

2h3po4 + 3mg(oh)2 → mg3(po4)2 + 6h2o phosphoric acid, h3po4, is neutralized by magnesium hydroxide, mg(oh)2, according to the eq
Rina8888 [55]
The balanced equation for the neutralisation reaction is as follows
2H₃PO₄ + 3Mg(OH)₂ --> Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O
stoichiometry of H₃PO₄ to H₂O is 2:6
number of H₃PO₄ moles reacted - 0.24 mol
if 2 mol of H₃PO₄ form 6 mol of H₂O
then 0.24 mol of H₃PO₄ forms - 6/2 x 0.24 = 0.72 mol of H₂O
therefore 0.72 mol of H₂O are formed

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s) + energy if 46 grams of na and 71 grams of cl2 r
igor_vitrenko [27]
Answer is: 2) 117g.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Step 1: calculate amount of substance of sodium and chlorine.
n(Na) = m(Na)÷M(Na) = 46g ÷ 23 g/mol = 2 mol.
n(Cl₂) = m(Cl₂)÷M(Cl₂) = 71g ÷ 71 g/mol = 1 mol.
Step 2: calculate amount of substance and mass of sodium-chloride.
Because both sodium and chlorine react completely, we can use both n to compare with n of NaCl.
n(Na) : n(NaCl) = 2:2, 2 mol : n(NaCl) = 2:2
n(NaCl) = 2mol, m(NaCl) = 2mol ·5805 g/mol = 117 g.
