What causes the subduction zone when an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate

1 answer:

7 0

Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denseroceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust.

Answer: picture shows work for # 1,2,4,5,7

Explanation:

number 3: as the pressure in the volume decreases, the volume increases causing it to expand and eventually blow.

number 6: because the temperature and the amount of gas don’t change, these terms don’t appear in the equation. What Boyle’s law means is that the volume of a mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. This linear relationship between pressure and volume means doubling the volume of a given mass of gas decreases its pressure by half.

What is the concentration of the murexide soution with a transmittance of 28.65%. (molar absorptivity = 3847)

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The concentration of the murexide solution is 0.0000745 M

Explanation:

From Beer-Lambert's law,

A = εlc

A = Absorbance = 28.65% = 0.2865

ε = molar absorptivity = 3847 M/cm

l = path length = 1cm

c = concentration in mol/L = ?

c = A/εl = 0.2865/(3847×1) = 0.0000745 mol/L

Hope this Helps!
