Why does most chemical weathering only happen on the outer surface rock?explain.

1 answer:

4 0

The very top layer on earth gets the most leathering because the rain, sleet, snow, ect. Mostly hits that top surface...
The other layers in earth dont get that much weathering because, well.... Like i said, everything mainly happens on the top layer.
~Hope this helped, anymore questions please ask! :)

You are preparing some solutions for your instructor and have been asked to prepare 3.00 L of a 0.250M sodium hydroxide solution

grigory [225]

Answer:

C. 30.0 g NaOH and add water until the final solution has a volume of 3.00 L.

Explanation:

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity

V = volume of solution in liter ,

n = moles of solute ,

from the question ,

M = 0.250M

V = 3.00 L

M = n / V

n = M * v

n = 0.250M * 3.00 L = 0.75 mol

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the question ,

n = 0.75 mol NaOH

m = molecular mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

n = w / m

w = n * m

w = 0.75 mol * 40 g/mol = 30.0 g

Hence , by using 30.0 g of NaOH and dissolving it to make up the volume to 3 L , a solution of 0.250 M can be prepared .

A) The average molecular speed in a sample of Ar gas at a certain temperature is 391 m/s. The average molecular speed in a sampl

diamong [38]

Answer:

For A: The average molecular speed of Ne gas is 553 m/s at the same temperature.

For B: The rate of effusion of $SO_2$ gas is $1.006\times 10^{-3}mol/hr$

Explanation:

For A:

The average molecular speed of the gas is calculated by using the formula:

$V_{gas}=\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi M}}$

$V_{gas}\propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}}$

where, M is the molar mass of gas

Forming an equation for the two gases:

$\frac{V_{Ar}}{V_{Ne}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{Ne}}{M_{Ar}}}$ .....(1)

Given values:

$V_{Ar}=391m/s\\M_{Ar}=40g/mol\\M_{Ne}=20g/mol$

Plugging values in equation 1:

$\frac{391m/s}{V_{Ne}}=\sqrt{\frac{20}{40}}\\\\V_{Ne}=391\times \sqrt{2}=553m/s$

Hence, the average molecular speed of Ne gas is 553 m/s at the same temperature.

For B:

Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. The equation for this follows:

$Rate\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}$

Where, M is the molar mass of the gas

Forming an equation for the two gases:

$\frac{Rate_{SO_2}}{Rate_{Xe}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{Xe}}{M_{SO_2}}}$ .....(2)

Given values:

$Rate_{Xe}=7.03\times 10^{-4}mol/hr\\M_{Xe}=131g/mol\\M_{SO_2}=64g/mol$

Plugging values in equation 2:

$\frac{Rate_{SO_2}}{7.03\times 10^{-4}}=\sqrt{\frac{131}{64}}\\\\Rate_{SO_2}=7.03\times 10^{-4}\times \sqrt{\frac{131}{64}}\\\\Rate_{SO_2}=1.006\times 10^{-3}mol/hr$

Hence, the rate of effusion of $SO_2$ gas is $1.006\times 10^{-3}mol/hr$

What is the identity of a metal that has a mass of 27.0 g and a volume of 10.0 cm3?

dexar [7]

The identity of a metal that has a mass of 27.0g and a volume of 10.0cm is Aluminium. That is option B.

<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>

Molar mass is defined as the mass in grams of one mole of an element. This is measured in grams/mole of that substance.

The metal that is 27.0 g and a volume of 10.0 cm3 is aluminium because aluminium is 27 times heavier than 1/12th of the mass of carbon-12 atom.

Therefore, the identity of a metal that has a mass of 27.0g and a volume of 10.0cm is Aluminium.
