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! :)

The reaction of NO2 with ozone produces NO3 in a second-order reaction overall.

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer : The rate of reaction is,

$Rate=4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

The appearance of $NO_3$ is, $4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

$NO_2(g)+O_3(g)\rightarrow NO_3(g)+O_2(g)$

The rate law expression will be:

$Rate=k[NO_2][O_3]$

Given:

Rate constant = $k=1.69\times 10^{-4}M^{-1}s^{-1}$

$[NO_2]$ = $1.77\times 10^{-8}M$

$[O_3]$ = $1.59\times 10^{-7}M$

$Rate=k[NO_2][O_3]$

$Rate=(1.69\times 10^{-4})\times (1.77\times 10^{-8})\times (1.59\times 10^{-7})$

$Rate=4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

The expression for rate of appearance of $NO_3$ :

$\text{Rate of reaction}=\text{Rate of appearance of }NO_3=+\frac{d[NO_3]}{dt}$

As, $\text{Rate of reaction}=4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

So, $\text{Rate of appearance of }NO_3=+\frac{d[NO_3]}{dt}=4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

Thus, the appearance of $NO_3$ is, $4.77\times 10^{-19}M/s$

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy in joules of the photon produced when an electron in a Li2+ ion moves from the orbit

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

By the Bohr model, the electrons surround the nucleus of the atom in shells or levels of energy. Each one has it's energy, and the electron doesn't fall to the nucleus because it can reach another level of energy, and then return to its level.

When the electrons go to another level, it absorbs energy, and then, when return, this energy is released, as a photon (generally as luminous energy). The value of the energy can be calculated by:

E = hc/λ

Where h is the Planck constant (6.626x10⁻³⁴ J.s), c is the light speed (3.00x10⁸ m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the photon.

The wavelength can be calculated by:

1/λ = R*(1/nf² - 1/ni²)

Where R is the Rydberg constant (1.097x10⁷ m⁻¹), nf is the final orbit, and ni the initial orbit. So:

1/λ = 1.097x10⁷ *(1/1² - 1/2²)

1/λ = 8.227x10⁶

λ = 1.215x10⁻⁷ m

So, the energy is:

E = (6.626x10⁻³⁴ * 3.00x10⁸)/(1.215x10⁻⁷)

E = 1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J

Which place on earth would be likely to have the most humidity due to water vapor in the atmosphere? Moscow, Russia Toronto, Can

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Nassau, Bahamas

Explanation: The Bahamas are close to the equator so it has more heat which means higher water evaporation which leads to a higher humidity than the other places.
