How does sediment form?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Andrews [41]3 years ago
5 0
Sediment is solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location. Sediment can consist of rocks and minerals, as well as the remains of plants and animals. It can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a boulder. Sediment moves from one place to another through the process of erosion.

Answer:

Based on Wikipedia it says, "Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension."

If you are writing an answer for your teacher, just take the one from wikipedia and put it in your own words.

What is the volume of an oxygen tank if it contains 12 moles of oxygen at 273 K under 75 kPa?
Zina [86]
Given:
n = 12 moles of oxygen
T = 273 K, temperature
p = 75 kPa, pressure

Use the ideal gas law, given by
pV=nRT \\ or \\  V= \frac{nRT}{p}
where
V = volume
R = 8.3145 J/(mol-K), the gas constant

Therefore,
V= \frac{(12\,mol)(8.3145\, \frac{J}{mol-K} )(273\,K)}{75 \times 10^{3} \, Pa}= 0.3632\,m^{3}

Answer: 0.363 m³

How can I balance this equation? ____ KClO3 ---> ____ KCl + ____ O2
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
__ KClO₃ → __ KCl + __ O₂

Left Side:
1 K
1 Cl
3 O

Right Side:
1 K
1 Cl
2 O

Since the least common multiple of 3 and 2 is 6, we need to multiply the compound with 2 oxygen by 3 and the compound with 3 oxygen by 2.

This gives us 2KClO₃ → __ KCl + 3O₂.

However, this equation is still not balanced.

Left Side:
2 K
2 Cl
6 O

Right Side:
1 K
1 Cl
6 O

In order to balance the K and Cl, we need to multiply the KCl compound on the right side by 2.

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

What is the temperature of CO2 gas if the average speed (actually the root-mean-square speed) of the molecules is 750 m/s?
erastova [34]

Answer:

992.302 K

Explanation:

V(rms) = 750 m/s

V(rms) = √(3RT / M)

V = velocity of the gas

R = ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature of the gas

M = molar mass of the gas

Molar mass of CO₂ = [12 + (16*2)] = 12+32 = 44g/mol

Molar mass = 0.044kg/mol

From

½ M*V² = 3 / 2 RT

MV² = 3RT

K = constant

V² = 3RT / M

V = √(3RT / M)

So, from V = √(3RT / M)

V² = 3RT / M

V² * M = 3RT

T = (V² * M) / 3R

T = (750² * 0.044) / 3 * 8.314

T = 24750000 / 24.942

T = 992.302K

The temperature of the gas is 992.302K

Note : molar mass of the gas was converted from g/mol to kg/mol so the value can change depending on whichever one you use.
