Which of the following best describes how soil is formed?

Chemistry
1 answer:
harkovskaia [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Soil minerals form the basis of soil.

Explanation:

They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion. Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material.

2Al(s)+Fe2O3(s) → Al2O(s)+2Fe(s) with a delta H=-847 KJ.
Scrat [10]

∆H for given reaction -847kJ

  • As it's negative reaction is exothermic

So

2 mol of Al releases 847KJ heat

4 mol Al releases

  • 2(847)
  • 1694KJ

∆H=-1694KJ

How many calories of heat were added to 347.9 g of water to raise its temperature from 25oC to 55oC?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

10437calories

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question given:

M = 347.9g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 25°C

T2 = 55°C

ΔT = 55 — 25 = 30°C

Q =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 347.9 x 4.2 x 30

Q = 43835.4J

Converting this to calories, we obtained the following:

4.2J = 1 calorie

43835.4J = 43835.4/ 4.2 = 10437calories

If you have 150 grams of s8, how many moles of so2 can you make?
ruslelena [56]

Answer : You can make 4.68 moles of SO₂

Explanation:

Step 1 : Write balanced equation.

S₈ can combine with oxygen to form SO₂ gas. The balanced equation for this reaction is written below.

S_{8}  + 8 O_{2} \rightarrow 8 SO_{2}

Step 2 : Find moles of S₈

The formula to calculate mol is

mole = \frac{grams}{MolarMass}

Molar mass of S₈ is 256.5 g/mol

mole = \frac{150grams}{256.5 g/mol}

mole = 0.585 mol

we have 0.585 mol of S₈

Step 3: Use mole ratio to find moles of SO₂

The mole ratio of S₈ and SO₂ can be found using balanced equation which is 1:8

That means 1 mol of S₈ can form 8 moles of SO₂.

Let us use this as a conversion factor to find moles of SO₂

0.585 mol (S_{8}) \times \frac{8 mol (SO_{2})}{1 mol (S_{8})}  = 4.68 mol

Therefore we have 4.68 moles of SO₂

When the concentration of reactant molecules is increased
a_sh-v [17]

Complete question is;

When the concentrations of reactant molecules are increased, the rate of reaction increases. The best explanation for this phenomenon is that as the reactant concentration increases,

A)the average kinetic energy of molecules increases.

B)the frequency of molecular collisions increases.

C)the rate constant increases.

D)the activation energy increases.

E)the order of reaction increases.

Answer:

B) The frequency of molecular collisions increases.

Explanation:

When we increase number of reactant molecules, the effective collision between the reactant molecules will form a product which also increases. As a result, the overall rate of the reaction will also increase which means the frequency of the molecular collision will also increase as well.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B
