What does the p mean in 1s22s22p63s??

Sophia was fascinated while studying the role of oceans in the hydrosphere. She decided to illustrate the features of the ocean

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The Major features of the ocean floor are:

Continental Shelf
Continental Slope
Continental Rise
Abyssal Plain
Oceanic Trench
Mid-Ocean Ridge

Explanation:

1. Continental Shelf: This refers to the part of the land on every continent that is covered with water that is not too deep. The types of animals that can be found on the continental shelf are:

Crab, Tuna, Lobster, Dungeness cod, etc. Within the Continental shelf, there are permanent rocks that house other organisms such as sponges, anemones, clams, sponges, oysters. The continental shelf also contains the route of migration for bigger animals such as sea turtles dolphins and even whales.

2. Continental Slope: This spans from the shelf break to the continental rise. It can slope up to 4 degrees. Slopes can be created by faulting, slumping of huge boulders of sediments, rifting, etc.

Some of the aquatic animals that can be found in this region include but are not limited to:

Sablefish, Dover sole rockfish, etc.

3. Continental rise

This part of the ocean floor usually has a very steep gradient or angle slope. It slopes very steeply into the abyssal plain of the ocean.

The following can help form continental rise:

Mass wasting;
deposition from contour currents and
the longitudinal settling of biogenic and clastic particles

4. Abyssal Plain.

This is the real bottom of the ocean. There is a very high probability that one would find animals such as nematodes, polychaetes, etc which are all types of worms down there. The Abyssal plain is also home to molluscs, and echinoderms.

5. Oceanic Trench

Sometimes there is a long and narrow indenture or depression along the seafloor. These are called Trenches. Trenches are sometimes formed by the boundaries between one lithospheric plate and another. The deepest trench on earth is found in the Pacific Ocean. It has been nick-named the Challenger Deep and said to be the deepest point known on earth reaching almost 11 kilometers.

6. Mid-Ocean Ridge

This is a mountain range underneath the ocean. It is formed when there is an upward push by convection currents of the mantle beneath the oceanic crust. When this happens and molten magma is ejected or created at the boundary between the plates, the result is a Mid-Oceanic Ridge.

What’s the difference between an ester and an amide

Rufina [12.5K]

In amides, the carbonyl carbon is bonded to a nitrogen. The nitrogen in an amide can be bonded either to hydrogens, to carbons, or to both. ... Another way of thinking of an ester is that it is a carbonyl bonded to an alcohol. Thioesters are similar to esters, except a sulfur is in place of the oxygen.

Using only the periodic table, determine the element that displays each given trend. Be sure to provide your reasoning.

RideAnS [48]

Choose the element that:

- is more reactive: oxygen or argon.

- has the larger atomic radius: francium or sodium.

- has the smaller atomic radius: scandium or selenium.

- has more ionization energy: bismuth or mercury.

- has less ionization energy: nitrogen or phosphorus.

- has more electronegativity: xenon or silver.

- has less electronegativity: titanium or hafnium.

Explanation:

Choose the element that is more reactive: oxygen or argon.

Argon have a complete electronic shell which makes him inert from chemically point of view while oxygen is able to form compounds with the majority of the elements.

Choose the element that has the larger atomic radius: francium or sodium.

As you go down in a group the atomic radius is increasing.

Choose the element that has the smaller atomic radius: scandium or selenium.

As a general trend the atomic radius of elements decrease in periods from right to left for this elements .

Choose the element that has more ionization energy: bismuth or mercury.

Mercury have a complete electronic shell (5d¹⁰) while bismuth have 3 electrons in the last shell (6p³). It is harder to extract an electron from mercury compared to bismuth.

Choose the element that has less ionization energy: nitrogen or phosphorus.

Ionization energy decrease as you go down in a group.

Choose the element that has more electronegativity: xenon or silver.

Silver have a higher electronegativity than Xenon. Xenon is an inert gas and it has a complete electronic shell which explains his inert chemical reactivity.

Choose the element that has less electronegativity: titanium or hafnium.

As you go down a grup electronegativity is decreasing.

Determine the maximum number of moles of product that can be produced from 7.0 mol al and 8.0 mol cl2 according to the equation

Vilka [71]

The balanced chemical reaction is

<span>2al + 3cl2 = 2alcl3

To determine the maximum amount of product, we need to determine which is the limiting reactant. Then, use the initial amount of that reactant to calculate the amount of the product that would be produced. We do as follows:

7 mol Al (3 mol Cl2 / 2 mol Al) = 10.5 mol Cl2
8 mol Cl2 ( 2 mol Al / 3 mol Cl2) = 5.3 mol Al
Thus, it is Cl2 that is the limiting reactant.

8 mol Cl2 ( 2 mol AlCl3 / 3 mol Cl2) = 5.3 moles of AlCl3 is produced</span>
