Metals are malleable - they can be bent and shaped. This is because they consist of layers of atoms. These layers can slide over one another when the metal is bent, hammered or pressed.

An abandoned Indiana coal mine spoil bank (wastes) contains chunks of pyrite minerals. Under constant erosion and weathering, th
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The acid will be neutralized overtime

Explanation:

The presence of the pyrites leads to the leaching of large amounts of sulphuric acid, however the basic carbonates neutralizes the acid according to the reaction equation;

CaCO3 + H2SO4 ---> CaSO4 + CO2 + H2O.

This will prevent all the deleterious consequences associated with the leaching of the acid in the abandoned coal mine.

15. How many moles of carbon tetrachloride (CCI) is represented by 543.2 g of carbon tetrachloride? The atomic weight of carbon
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

well, first off. the formula for carbon tetrachloride is CCl4

We need to find the molar mass of carbon tetrachloride

1(Mass of C) + 4(mass of chlorine)

1(12) + 4(35.5)

12 + 142

154 g/mol

Number of moles of CCl3 in 543.2g CCl3

n = given mass / molar mass

n = 543.2/153

n = 3.53 moles

In the so called rain shadow effect we have interaction between all of the four major Earth spheres. When we have a coastal region where there's a high mountain range, the part of the mountain that is facing the sea will differ a lot from the part of the mountain that is on the other side. The water from the sea evaporates. The water vapor makes the air wet. The warm and wet air masses from the sea will come to the coastline, once they reach the mountain they will start to accumulate as they can not pass through it. As they accumulate rainfall appears. The rainfall contributes to a lush vegetation on this side of the mountain (windward side). The rain shadow effect appears on the leeward side of the mountain, and it mostly gets dry, strong, downward winds. These conditions result in drier climate, much less vegetation, and much increased erosion. Thus we can easily see that we have in this case interaction between the hydrosphere (the sea and the rainfall), the geosphere (the ground, soil, rocks), biosphere (the vegetation), and atmosphere (the winds, the clouds).
