________ is a strong, parallel alignment of coarse mica flakes and/or of different mineral bands in a metamorphic rock.
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Foliation is a strong, parallel alignment of coarse mica flakes and/or of different mineral bands in a metamorphic rock.

Explanation:

Foliation is most commonly prevalent in metamorphic rocks. Foliation is the parallel alignment of textural and structural features of a rock.

Differential stress plays a major role on the texture of metamorphic rocks because it forces the mineral constituent of the rocks to align parallel to each other.  Foliation can occur in different ways for example a mineral like mica which is usually platy can crystallize in rocks , due to differential stress the mineral grows in such a way it remains parallel to the movement in which the part of the rock slide relative to one another and parallel to the forces applied or the mineral might grow perpendicular to the direction of the compressed stress.  

Notice the foliation in the texture of gneiss .You can see the light and dark mineral found in separate or parallel layer.

Which describes the process that forms teflon tm? molecular fluorine (f2) undergoes polymerization. a fluorocarbon polymer break
Stella [2.4K]
Answer:
             T<span>etrafluoroethene (F</span>₂CCF₂<span>) undergoes polymerization describes the formation of Teflon.

Explanation:
                    Polymerization is the process in which small units called as monomers join together repeatedly and forms a long chain macro-molecule called as polymer.
                    In given question the monomer is Tetrafluoroethene because alkenes can undergo polymerization via Addition polymerization via following mechanism.
                            a)  Free Radical Addition Reaction

                            b)  Acid Catalyzed Addition Reaction

                            c)  Base catalyzed Addition Reaction

The formation of Teflon from Tetrafluoroethene is shown below,</span>

A mixture consists of sand and an aqueous salt
Alenkinab [10]

Answer is (4).<span>
<em>
</em>
</span>

<span><em>Explanation:</em>
</span><span>
<span>The given mixture contains an </span>insoluble solid<span> <span>and an </span></span>aqueous solution of salt.  <span>The insoluble solid is </span>sand. <span>

First </span><span>we have to separate </span>insoluble solid. <span>Sand can be separated by doing </span>filtration. When we filter the mixture sand can be seen as the residue on the filter paper. 

<span>After filtering the mixture, we should collect the </span>filtrate. <span>Filtrate is the </span>salt solution. <span>By doing </span>evaporation <span>we can get the </span>solid salt. <span>

First </span>and second choices are wrong <span>because </span>after evaporating water filtration cannot be done and salt and sand will be mixed together.<span>

Salt cannot be filtered out because the salt is soluble and it is <span>in aqueous medium. Hence, third choice is wrong</span></span></span>
