Becomes older
Explanation:
As sea floor spreading occurs at divergent margins, the oceanic plate becomes older. Younger plate margin are the closest to the margin whereas the older plates bushes backward away from the spreading centers.
- The idea that the sea floor spreads was postulated by Harry Hess shortly after the second world war around the 1960's.
- At divergent margins new crust materials from the mantle are brought to the surface.
- They crystallize and settle at the flanks of plate margins.
- Older ones are pushed backward away from the margin into far away subduction zones.

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.
Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.
K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
