Layer 2 and layer 9 are the same relative age.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes the rock layers is that Layer 2 and layer 9 are the same relative age..

The relative age is used in placing sedimentary rocks in order of their occurrence.

To do this, we apply the sedimentary laws.

The ones applicable here are:

  • Principle of superposition states that in an undisturbed sequence, the oldest layer is at the base and youngest on top.
  • Principle of cross cutting states that a fault and intrusion are younger than the rocks they cut through.
  • Principle of fossil and fauna succession states that fossils and fauna succeed on another in a determinable form.

We see that layers 2 and 9 have the same fossil and are the same lithological units.

attashe74 [19]

Answer: C

Explanation:

According to Neils Bohr, atoms contain electrons which are arranged in energy levels. The energy levels proceed from the lowest to the highest. When energy is supplied to an atom,it moves from lower to higher energy levels. The higher energy level is known as the excited state. Excited states are short lived and atoms quickly return to ground state with emission of the absorbed energy in the form of visible light. This visible light must have one of the seven colours observed in the visible spectrum; Red, orange, yellow, indigo, blue, green, violet. Energy required for this excitation is supplied by heating the substance in a flame.

I performed an experiment and mixed copper nitrate and potassium iodide. When they reacted, they formed a precipitate, even thou
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2

Explanation:

The reaction performed in the experiment is;

2 Cu(NO3)2 + 4 KI → 2 CuI (s) + 4 KNO3 + I2

The iodide ions reduces Cu^2+ to Cu^+ which is insoluble in water hence the precipitate. This is so because iodine is a good oxidizing agent seeing that it requires one electron to fill its outermost shell. Potassium on the other hand is a good reducing agent since it easily looses its one electron.

The oxidation - reduction equation is as follows;

2Cu2^+ + 2e ----> 2Cu^+ reduction half equation

2I^- ----> I2 + 2e. Oxidation half equation

Balanced redox reaction equation;

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2

In 1901, Thomas Edison invented the nickel-iron battery. The follwing reaction takes place in the battery.
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: The number of moles of Fe(OH)_2  produced are, 3.60 moles.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation is:

Fe(s)+2NiO(OH)(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)+2Ni(OH)_2(aq)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of Fe react with 2 mole of NiO(OH)

So, 3.60 moles of Fe react with 3.60\times 2=7.2 moles of NiO(OH)

From this we conclude that, NiO(OH) is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and Fe is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of Fe(OH)_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1  mole of Fe react to give 1 mole of Fe(OH)_2

So, 3.60 mole of Fe react to give 3.60 mole of Fe(OH)_2

Therefore, the number of moles of Fe(OH)_2  produced are, 3.60 moles.
