<span><span>Minerals are homogeneous, naturally occurring, inorganic solids. Each mineral has a definite chemical composition and a characteristic crystalline structure. A mineral may be a single element such as copper (Cu) or gold (Au), or it may be a compound made up of a number of elements. About 2,500 different minerals have been described.</span><span>Rocks are made up of one or more minerals.</span></span>THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF ROCKS. THEY ARE:<span>1. <span>Igneous Rocks </span>: Formed from the cooling of molten rock.<span>A. Volcanic igneous rocks formed from molten rock that cooled quickly on or near the earth's surface.
B. Plutonic igneous rocks are the result of the slow cooling of molten rock far beneath the surface.</span>2. <span>Sedimentary Rocks </span>: Formed in layers as the result of moderate pressure on accumulated sediments.
3. <span>Metamorphic Rocks </span>: Formed from older "parent" rock (either igneous or sedimentary) under intense heat and/or pressure at considerable depths beneath the earth's surface.</span><span>THE INTERRELATIONSHIP AMONG THE ROCK TYPES IS REFERRED TO AS THE
ROCK CYCLE</span>.THERE ARE FOUR MAIN LAYERS THAT MAKE UP THE EARTH:

<span>1.<span> Inner Core </span>- A mass of iron with a temperature of about 7000 degrees F. Although such temperatures would normally melt iron, immense pressure on it keeps it in a solid form. The inner core is approximately 1,500 miles in diameter.
2.<span> Outer Core </span>- A mass of molten iron about 1,425 miles deep that surrounds the solid inner core. Electrical currents generated from this area produce the earth's magnetic field.
3.<span> Mantle </span>- A rock layer about 1,750 miles thick that reaches about half the distance to the center of the earth. parts of this layer become hot enough to liquify and become slow moving molten rock or magma.
4.<span> Crust </span>- A layer from 4-25 miles thick consisting of sand and rock. hope i helped</span>

A sample of carbon dioxide at RTP is 0.50 dm3. How many grams of carbon dioxide do we have?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

0.924 g

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Volume of CO2 at RTP = 0.50 dm³

Mass of CO2 =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of CO2 that occupied 0.50 dm³ at RTP (room temperature and pressure). This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of gas = 24 dm³ at RTP

Thus,

1 mole of CO2 occupies 24 dm³ at RTP.

Therefore, Xmol of CO2 will occupy 0.50 dm³ at RTP i.e

Xmol of CO2 = 0.5 /24

Xmol of CO2 = 0.021 mole

Thus, 0.021 mole of CO2 occupied 0.5 dm³ at RTP.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO2 as follow:

Mole of CO2 = 0.021 mole

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (2×16) = 13 + 32 = 44 g/mol

Mass of CO2 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

0.021 = mass of CO2 /44

Cross multiply

Mass of CO2 = 0.021 × 44

Mass of CO2 = 0.924 g.

The half-life of tritium (H-3) is 12.3 years. If 48.0mg of tritium is released from a nuclear power plant during the course of a
Rudiy27

Answer:

The amount left after 49.2 years is 3mg.

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of tritium = 12.3 years

Total mass pf tritium = 48.0 mg

Mass remain after 49.2 years = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of half lives.

Number of half lives = T elapsed/ half life

Number of half lives =  49.2 years /12.3 years

Number of half lives =  4

Now we will calculate the amount left after 49.2 years.

At time zero 48.0 mg

At first half life = 48.0mg/2 = 24 mg

At second half life = 24mg/2 = 12 mg

At 3rd half life = 12 mg/2 = 6 mg

At 4th half life =  6mg/2 = 3mg

The amount left after 49.2 years is 3mg.
