Answer:
The sediments accumulating on and around mid-ocean ridges are mostly formed from the calcareous and siliceous tests of pelagic organisms. This research is concerned with understanding how the rate of sediment supply varies from place to place due to varied productivity of pelagic organisms, how the sediments accumulate on the complex topography of a mid-ocean ridge, and with using the sediments to study mid-ocean ridge processes such as faulting and volcanism.
Sediment transport and accumulation
When pelagic materials reach the seafloor, they are redistributed by bottom currents and by sedimentary flows. This work studied the form of the accumulation using sediment profiler records collected with a Deep Tow system from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography deployed over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in the early 1970s. The records showed that both sets of transport processes are important. The shapes of deposits were studied to see to what extent they conform to the diffusion transport model - many deposits have parabolic surfaces, which are the steady state forms expected from the diffusion transport model under boundary conditions of constant input or output flux to basins.
Answer:
You manage to find a bottle of bromothymol blue and a few extra beakers. You take one of the empty beakers and add some of the first unlabeled solution and some indicator.
The color changes to yellow.
You then add some solution from the other unlabeled flask into this beaker and see the color change to blue.
What are the identities of each unlabeled solution?
Explanation:
Bromothymol blue is a dye and it is used as an indicator.
It is used as a pH indicator.
In acids, it becomes yellow n in color.
In bases, it turns blue.
You take one of the empty beakers and add some of the first unlabeled solution and some indicator. The color changes to yellow.
That means the unlabeled solution is an acid.
You then add some solution from the other unlabeled flask into this beaker and see the color change to blue.
It is a basic solution.
Answer:
Mass of solid = 189.141 gram
Explanation:
Given:
Total volume = 93 ml
Mass of liquid = 33.7 gram
Density of liquid = 0.865 g/ml
Density of solid = 3.50 g/ml
Find:
Mass of solid = ?
Computation:
Volume of liquid = Mass of liquid / Density of liquid
Volume of liquid = 33.7 / 0.865
Volume of liquid = 38.9595 ml
Volume of solid = Total volume - Volume of liquid
Volume of solid = 93 - 38.9595
Volume of solid = 54.0405 ml
Mass of solid = Volume of solid × Density of solid
Mass of solid = 54.0405 ml × 3.50 g/ml
Mass of solid = 189.141 gram
Answer:
pH = 5.24
Explanation:
Mixture of acetic acid with acetate ion is a buffer (Mixture of a weak acid with its conjugate base). The pH of a buffer can be determined using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:
pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]
<em>Where pKa is -log Ka = 4.74; [A⁻] is the concentration of conjugate base (Acetate ion) and [HA] is molar concentration of the weak acid.</em>
Concentration of the acetic acid in the 100mL≡0.1L (76mL + 24mL) solution is:
[HA] = 0.024L ₓ (1mol / L) / 0.1L = 0.24M
[A⁻] = 0.076L ₓ (1mol / L) / 0.1L = 0.76M
Replacing in H-H equation:
pH = 4.74 + log₁₀ [0.76M] / [0.24M]
<h3>pH = 5.24</h3>
