Carbon in the lithosphere is held in soil in the form of both organic and inorganic carbon which often as calcium carbonate. Carbon can leave the soil through soil respiration – which releases CO2, or by erosion – which can carry it into rivers or the ocean, where it then enters the hydrosphere.

Answer:

The carbon in the lithosphere was initially found in the form of carbonate rocks. The formation of these carbonate rocks took place due to the deposition of the ancient marine plankton at the base of the ocean because of the activity of pressure and heat and got transformed into coal and petroleum.  

The burning of fossil fuel, that is, the coal and petroleum gave rise to carbon dioxide, thus, it can be concluded that initially in the lithosphere the carbon prevailed in the form of carbonate rocks.

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Weathering is usually defined as the disintegration of rocks at the surface of the earth. This break down of rocks is mainly caused by the geological processes that occur on the earth's surface. This process results in the formation of sediments that are transported and deposited in a new environment.

This weathering process primarily takes place in three different ways such as-

  • Physical weathering- Here, the rocks are broken down by the physical agents such as wind, water, ice.
  • Chemical weathering- Here the rocks are broken down when interacts with the chemical containing water.
  • Biological weathering- here, the rocks are broken down due to the activities done by organisms such as plants and animals.

In the given condition, Quincy can see a real example of rock weathering in the high mountainous region, as in the mountainous region the rocks are frequently weathered and eroded by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Answer:

I think it's the last one.

Explanation:

Because gravity is what makes our planets stay still and stops our planets from dropping and as they orbit around the sun that's what keeps the moon from bumping into earth. I hope this helps and makes sense.

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 11?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

\huge 1 × {10}^{-11} \: \: M

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ {H}^{+} ]

Since we are finding the H+ ions we find the antilog of the pH

So we have

11 =  -  log({H}^{+})  \\ {H}^{+} =  {10}^{ - 11}

We have the final answer as

1 × {10}^{-11} \: \: M

Hope this helps you
