When the surface of moon reflects light from the sun, it results in shining of moon and regardless the fact that sometimes moon seems to shine brightly, the moon reflects between 3 to 12 percent of the sunlight which hits it. The moon brightness depends upon the position of the moon in orbit around the planet from the earth.

Hence, the correct option is A that is the Moon reflects the light produced by the Sun.

"Two major varieties of igneous rock are _______ and ________. What is the difference between these two types of igneous rock?"
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Intrusive and Extrusive igneous rocks.

Explanation:

Igneous rocks are defined as those rocks that are formed when magma undergoes the process of crystallization and solidification at or below the earth's surface. For example, Granite, Rhyolite, Gabbro and Diorite.

The igneous rocks are of two different types, namely-

  • Intrusive igneous rocks- This type of igneous rocks are formed when the magma crystallizes below or within the earth's crust. For example, Granite.
  • Extrusive igneous rocks- This type of igneous rocks are formed when the magma crystallizes and solidifies at the surface of the earth. For example, Basalt.

Enter your answer in the provided box. From the data below, calculate the total heat (in J) needed to convert 0.304 mol of gaseo
diamong [38]

Answer:

-35,281.5 J

Explanation:

To convert the gaseous ethanol to liquid ethanol, three steps will occur. First, it will lose heat and the temperature will decrease until its boiling point, so from 300.0°C to 78.5°C. Thus, more heat will be lost, but now, with the temperature constant, so the gas will be converted to liquid. And then, the liquid will lose heat to decrease the temperature from 78.5°C to 25.0°C.

The total heat loss is the sum of the heats of each step. Because the heat is being removed from the system, it's negative. The first and last step occurs with a change in temperature, and so the heat is calculated by:

Q = m*c*ΔT

Where m is the mass, c is the specific heat of the gas (first step) or liquid (last step), and ΔT the temperature variation (final - initial). The mass of ethanol is the molar mass 46.07 g/mol multiplied by the number of moles, so:

m = 46.07 * 0.304 = 14.00 g

The second step occurs without a change in temperature, and the heat is then:

Q = -n*ΔH°vap

Where n is the number of moles, ΔH°vap is the heat of vaporization, and the minus signal indicates that the heat is being lost. Then, the heat of each step is:

Q1 = 14.00*1.43*(78.5 - 300,0) = -4434.43 J

Q2 = -0.304*40.5 = -12.312 kJ = -12312 J

Q3 = 14.00*2.45*(25.0 - 78.5) = -1835.05 J

Q = Q1 + Q2 + Q3

Q = -35,281.5 J

An antacid tablet contains 640.0 mg of magnesium oxide per tablet.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

317.6 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced neutralization equation

MgO + 2 HCl ⇒ MgCl₂ + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the mass corresponding to 640.0 mg of MgO

The molar mass of MgO is 40.30 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 640.0 mg (0.6400 g) of MgO are:

0.6400 g × (1 mol/40.30 g) = 0.01588 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of HCl that react with 0.01588 moles of MgO

The molar ratio of MgO to HCl is 1:2. The moles of HCl are 2/1 × 0.01588 mol = 0.03176 mol

Step 4: Calculate the volume of 0.1000 M HCl that contains 0.03176 moles

0.03176 mol × (1 L/0.1000 mol) = 0.3176 L = 317.6 mL
