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!

The temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol. Without knowing more about the chemistry of alcohol, w
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Alcohols are organic molecules characterized majorly by the presence of the OH group in their molecule. The OH group is majorly responsible for several of their characteristics. This include the formation of hydrogen bonds between alcohol molecules. While this makes them more inorganic than most organic compounds, comparatively the hydrogen bonding formed in alcohols is not as strong as that which is present in water.

The higher strength of the hydrogen bonding is responsible for some comparable properties. While water boils at a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, alcohol boils at a temperature of 78 degrees Celsius. This is an evidence to the fact that hydrogen bonding in alcohol is less stronger that that in water.

If 45.0 mL of a 0.0500 M HNO3, 10.0 mL of a 0.0500 M KSCN, and 30.0 mL of a 0.0500 M Fe(NO3)3 are combined, what is the initial
jeka94

Answer:

the  initial concentration of SCN- in the mixture is 0.00588 M

Explanation:

The computation of the initial concentration of the SCN^- in the mixture is as follows:

As we know that

KSCN \rightarrow K^ + SCN^-

As it is mentioned in the question that KSCN is present 10 mL of 0.05 M

So, the total milimoles of SCN^- is

= 10 × 0.05

= 0.5  m moles

The total volume in mixture is

= 45 + 10 + 30

= 85 mL

Now the initial concentration of the SCN^- is

= 0.5 ÷ 85

= 0.00588 M

hence, the  initial concentration of SCN- in the mixture is 0.00588 M
