What happens when q wave is reflected from the surface of a boundary brainly

The Curiosity rover now on Mars analyzed rocks and found magnesium to have the following isotopic composition.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A. number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13

B. The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu

C. the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.

The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element

i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12

The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Given that the mass number of Mg = 25

Then;

25 = 12 + number of neutrons

25 - 12 = number of neutrons

13 = number of neutrons

number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13

B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?

The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.

Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:

= $\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}$

= $\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}$

= $\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}$

The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu

C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.

The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.

There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.

Which is the correct Lewis structure for carbon monoxide?<br> А. А<br> В. B<br> С. С<br> D. D

kramer

Answer: Choice B

There are triple bonds between the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) atoms. Then there are 2 dots on either side

==========================================================

Explanation:

When it comes to interaction and chemistry, all that matters is the valence shell or valence electrons. This is the outermost shell. This is because various elements do not interact with the inner electrons (they're locked in place so to speak and don't move to other elements).

Carbon has 6 protons, which is what uniquely makes up this element. This means there are 6 electrons. The inner shell has 2 electrons and the valence shell has 4 electrons. Two electrons are shown as the two blue dots on the left side of the C. The other two electrons form two of the lines, or the bonds, between the C and O.

-------------

Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. It has 2 electrons in the inner shell and 6 electrons in the valence shell. Two of those electrons are the red dots on the right side of the O. The other 4 electrons are shared to form the bonds with the carbon atom.

This is where things get a bit tricky. I've shown a diagram below indicating that one of the oxygen electrons (red dot) is passed to the carbon, as this carbon atom is pulling on the oxygen electron. But the oxygen atom is pulling on it as well, which forms one of the triple bonds.

So this is why diagram B is the final answer. This is something you can logically determine (remembering the rules of how each electron shell is formed), or it's something you'll need to memorize. In the real world, it's easy to forget a lot of info like this, so that's why having it handy as a lookup reference is preferable.

In a car lift used in a service station, compressed air exerts a force on a small piston of circular cross section having a radi

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

(a) 1,569.63 N

(b) 195,933.99 Pa

(c) As pressure and volume are equal for each piston, workdone must also be equal

(d) 1,647.47 kg

Explanation:

Let the cross-sectional area (CSA) of small piston = A₁

Let the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the bigger piston = A₂

Let the Force applied at the smaller piston = F₁

Let the Force applied at the bigger piston = F₂

The principle of hydraulic lift assumes the that the fluid is in-compressible, resulting to a constant pressure system.

F₁/A₁ =F₂/A₂----------------------------------------------------------- (1)

(a) F₁= F₂ xA₁ /A₂

F₂ = 13,300 N

A₁ = π r₁²

=π x (0.0505)²

= 0.008011 m²

A₂= π r₂²

=π x (0.147)²

= 0.06788 m²

Substituting into (1)

F₁ = 13,300 x 0.008011/0.06788

= 1,569.6272

≈ 1,569.63 N

(b) Air pressure = Force/Area

= F₁/A₁

= 1,569.6272/ 0.008011

= 195,933.99 Pa

(c) The pressure is constant for both pistons according to Pascal Law.

Workdone = force x distance----------------------------------------- (2)

force = pressure × area

distance = volume/area from

Substituting into (2)

Workdone = pressure × volume.

As pressure and volume are equal for each piston, work must also be equal

(d) F₂ = F₁ x A₂/ A₁---------------------------------------------------- (3)

A₁ = π r₁²

=π x (0.079)²

= 0.01960 m²

A₂= π r₂²

=π x (0.353)²

= 0.3914 m²

Substituting into (2)

F₂= 825 x 0.3914/ 0.01960

= 16,474.7448

≈ 16,474.74 N

= 1,647.47 kg
