Answer:

Stratigraphy and Biostratigraphy

Explanation:

Stratigraphy is a science, a branch of geology, which studies the composition, structure and succession of stratified rocks in order to reconstruct the physical history of planet Earth. The study of rock strata provides information on various formation environments and the ancient physical landscapes of the earth. With stratigraphy it is possible to determine the relative age of the rock and strata. In addition, stratigraphy is also able to provide data on the climate of our planet for thousands or even millions of years and also enables us to determine the time when a particular animal or plant organism lived when one of these is found in a particular rock stratum.

Biostratigraphy is a branch of stratigraphy. In biostratigraphy the relative age of rock and strata is defined by the type or species of fossils that are found in this layer. For example, Rincosaurs are found in the upper Triassic. If a paleontologist finds a fossil of Rincosaurus, this layer is from the Triassic.

How many moles of Chromium is in 4.41 ×10^24 atoms

zalisa [80]

7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

<h3>How to find the number of moles ?</h3>

Number of moles = $\frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}$

<h3>What is Avogadro's Number ?</h3>

Avogadro's number is the number of particles in one mole of substance. 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's Constant / Avogadro's Number.

Avogadro's Number = 6.022 × 10²³

Now put the values in above formula we get

Number of moles = $\frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}$

= $\frac{4.41 \times 10^{24}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}$

= 7.32 moles

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Fill in the blank: You can find the number of __________ in any atom by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.

Shtirlitz [24]

B is true if we subtract atomic number(the number of protons )from the mass number
we can find neutrons.

Which statement is true about molecule speed? (1 point)

ANTONII [103]

Faster molecules have fewer collisions than slower molecules is True about molecular speed.

<h3>What is Molecular speed?</h3>

Molecular speed refers to the average distance gases or molecules travelled atca particular time rate.

It is valid in ideal gas, where the molecules do not interact with others.

Average molecular speed = Square root (3 (ideal gas constant) * (Temperature)/m)

Therefore, Faster molecules have fewer collisions than slower molecules is True about molecular speed.
