Is the continental crust less dense or more dense ?

Chemistry

It is less dense than the material of the Earth's mantle and thus "floats" on top of it. Continental crust is also less dense than oceanic crust, though it is considerably thicker; mostly 35 to 40 km versus the average oceanic thickness of around 7-10 km.


I looked this up but hope it helps!

How many milliliters of water will it take to fill a 2 L bottle that already contains 1.87 L of water?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.00013

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure. I first subtracted 1.87 from 2. I got 0.13. The conversion from mL to L is 0.001. I multiplied 0.13 and 0.001 and got <u>0.00013 mL.</u>

Which of these pairs indicates an incorrect coupling of reversible reactions?dehydration synthesis and hydrolysisanabolic and ca
Olegator [25]

Answer:

option C= hydrolysis and break down

Explanation:

All other three pairs are correct coupling of each others.

Option A= dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis

Dehydration synthesis:

In dehydration synthesis monomers combine through the covalent bonds and form large molecules. The large molecules are called polymers. The water as a byproduct also released when monomers joints together.

Hydrolysis:

In hydrolysis the polymers are break down into monomers by using water molecules. The catalysts are also required in this process.

Option B= Catabolic and Anabolic

Anabolic:

In this process smaller molecules combine to gather to form large complex molecules by using energy.

For example simple glucose molecules join together to form large disaccharides.

Catabolic:

It is the break down of large complex molecules to the smaller molecules.

For example during cellular respiration sugar molecules break down and generate energy.

Option D=  Break down and synthesis

The break down and synthesis are also reverse pair of each others. The  synthesis involve the formation of molecules form smaller component while the break down involve destruction of molecules into smaller units.

Una muestra de 1 gramo de un elemento contiene 1,5 x 1022 atomos, cual es su masa molar❓❓
marusya05 [52]

El número de Avogadro es 6,022 x 10^23, y es el número de átomos que hay en un mol de dicho elemento. A su vez un mol es la cantidad de un elemento cuya masa en gramos coincide con el peso atómico.

Por tanto, 6,022 x 10^23 átomos del elemento tienen una masa en gramos igual a su peso atómico. Hacemos una regla de tres:


1 gramo -------- 1,5 x 10^22 átomos

x ------------------ 6,022 x 10^23 átomos


=> x = 40,1 gramos por mol del elemento.


De modo que su peso atómico es 40,1. Se trata del calcio.


Saludos.

You need 455 ml of a 75% alcohol solution. on hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. you also have a 90% alcohol mixture. how muc
marishachu [46]
X ml - <span>25% alcohol mixture
y ml - </span><span>90% alcohol mixture

x+y = 455 

0.25x ml alcohol in </span>x ml of  25% alcohol mixture
0.9y ml alcohol in y ml of  90% alcohol mixture
0.75*455= 341.25 ml alcohol in 455 ml of  75% alcohol mixture

0.25x+0.9y=341.25 

System of equations:

x+y = 455 /*(-0.25) ------> -0.25x-0.25y = -0.25*455 
0.25x+0.9y=341.25

-0.25x-0.25y=-113.75
0.25x+0.9y=341.25    Add both equations

0.25x+0.9y-0.25x-0.25y=341.25-113.75
0.65y =227.5
y=227.5/0.65 = 350 ml  of  90% alcohol mixture

x+y=455
x+355=455
x=100 ml of  25% alcohol mixture

Explain hydrogen dioxide​
frozen [14]

Answer:

Two molecules of hydrogen combine with two molecules of oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide. Hence, its chemical formula is H2O2. It is the simplest peroxide (since it is a compound with an oxygen-oxygen single bond). Hydrogen peroxide has basic uses as an oxidizer, bleaching agent and antiseptic
