Name two rocks that would react to hydrochloric acid and why?

Biology
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Azurite and Magnesite react with hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

These 2 rocks contain the carbonate mineral calcite dolomite. Carbonate minerals are unstable in contact with hydrochloric acid. When acid begins to effervesce (fizz) on a specimen, a reaction takes place and bubbles of carbon dioxide evolve, thus indicating the presence of minerals like calcite dolomite.

Hope my answer is correct and helpful :)

Is the temperature profile in the thermosphere more like that of the troposphere or the stratosphere?
podryga [215]

The correct answer is: stratosphere.

This is because their temperatures are rising instead of decreasing.

There are 4 primary layers of the atmosphere on Earth:  

Troposphere (6-20km), the layer that we live in, where the weather occurs. Only nitrogen and oxygen present.

Stratosphere  (20-50 km), where the airplanes fly, contains the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful radiation from the sun.

Mesosphere (50-85 km), the coldest region of Earth’s atmosphere (-100 C), protective layer

Thermosphere (80-690), the hottest (1500 C) and the thickest layer which consists of the ionosphere and the exosphere.

Which zone is most likely to have insects and very little plant life?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The right answer is D. The benthic zone

Explanation:

The limnetic and the littoral zone  all get a lot of sunlight so there are a lot of plant life. The pelagic zone hosts a variety of plant species so this cannot be the correct answer. That leaves us with the benthic zone.

Benthic meaning inhabiting bottom areas or substrates. Plant life at the bottom is very scarce but there are a lot of insect species.
