Explain why the term recycling is an excellent description of plate tectonics

1 answer:

4 0

We may not see notice it but plate tectonics actually have a "recycle" process. However, scientist reported that it happens in a span of 500 million years. Over the years, the oceanic crusts are pressured to the topmost layer of the mantle causing the oceanic crusts to melt and mix with the Earth's mantle. Such crust blending results to the formation of volcanoes underwater. In time, the said volcanoes would erupt causing the formation of new oceanic and continental crusts.

How many moles of Fe2O3 are in 203 g of the compound?

ruslelena [56]

The equation is :
moles=mass/molar mass
so, the mass is 203 and molar mass is 159.69
You divide the 203 by 156.69 as the equation shows
so the moles is 1.27 mol.

A photon of green light strikes an unknown metal and an electron is emitted. The voltage is set to 2 volts. The electron cannot

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

An electron will be emitted in the second experiment, but it cannot be determined whether it will reach the second plate.

Explanation:

In fact, violet has higher frequency than green light. This means that photons on violet carry more energy than photons of green light (remember that the energy of a photon is proportional to it's frequency:

$e = hf$

, so when they hit the surface of the metal, more energy is transferred to the electrons. The electron was already emitted with green light, so it must be emitted with also violet light, given the more energy transferred.
