Salt domes result when: 1. inland seas dry 2.the pressure of overlying rock forces the salt to rise 3. a layer of sedimentary sa
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Salt domes result when <u><em>the pressure of overlying rock forces the salt to rise. (Option 2)</em></u>

Explanation:

In geology it is called the gently wavy and rounded relief dome.

Salt has some special properties like rock:

  • Salt has a lower specific gravity in relation to a common mineral.
  • Salts deform plastically and are very mobile.
  • Salts have a high water solubility.

These properties allow, if the pressure is very high, that the salt layers move upwards (due to their lower density). That is, the internal forces produce the elevation of the strata by means of the pressure they exert towards a higher point, generating that the salt looks for its way towards the surface [that is, the salt ascends through the sedimentary layers of the earth's crust, crossing them and deforming them] and causing the bulging structure. The oldest strata are located in the central area of the dome, while the most modern are distributed in the farthest radius. The structure is called salt or diapiro dome, the phenomenon by which it is formed is called diapirism.

Finally, you can say that <u><em>Salt domes result when the pressure of overlying rock forces the salt to rise.</em></u>

How did atomic theory develop and change?
Agata [3.3K]
The atomic theory started with Democritus, who stated that all space was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, though Aristotles refuted that statement by saying that matter didn’t exist, he believed in the four elements: air, fire, water, and earth. Then came Dalton, who revived Democritus’s ideas and proposed the law of multiple proportions, he revived the idea that all space was made of atoms. Soon after, J.J Thompson discovered the electron by using cathode rays. Max Planck developed the quantum theory by stating that electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted in quantized form (later called quanta). Einstein furthered this idea with studies of light. Robert Millikan eventually measured the charge of a single electron. Ernest Rutherford used a gold foil experiment and discovered the nuclei, considering his alpha particles were deflected by some object. Niels Bohr made the atomic model with electrons spinning around an atom’s nucleus, Erwin Schrodinger describes how electrons have wave like properties. James Chadwick then discovers the neutron!

Which of these do not obey the octet rule? select all that apply. select all that apply. clo clo− clo2− clo3− clo4−?
ioda

The correct answer is ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-

Kossel and Lewis in 1916 developed an important theory of chemical combination between atoms known as electronic theory of chemical bonding. According to this, atoms can combine either by transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another (gaining or losing) or by sharing of valence electron in order to have an octet( 8 electron) in their shells. This is known as octet rule.

In ClO2-, oxygen contains 8 electrons in its valence shell and oxygen will share one electron with chlorine to complete the octet of Cl. In other four, we can clearly see that there are more or less than 8 electrons in the outer shell of oxygen so we can clearly say that ClO, ClO3-, ClO- and ClO4-  are disobeying the octet rule.
