The principle of original horizontality states that all rock layers were initially deposited horizontally.  The answer must be They were deposited horizontally and then shifted by a geologic event because they other choices all indicate that the the rocks were initially deposited in a way that was not horizontal.


Hope this helps!!

Sulfur dioxide and oxygen react to form sulfur trioxide during one of the key steps in sulfuric acid synthesis. An industrial ch
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The equation for the reaction can be represented as:

2SO_2 + O_2 \to 2SO_3

The I.C.E table can be represented as:

                     2SO₂              O₂                   2SO₃

Initial:             14                  2.6                     0

Change:        -2x                -x                      +2x

Equilibrium:   14 - 2x          2.6 - x                2x

However, Since the amount of sulfur trioxide gas to be 1.6 mol.

SO₃ = 2x,

then x = 1.6/2

x = 0.8 mol

For 2SO₂; we have 14 - 2x

= 14 - 2(0.8)

= 14 - 1.6

= 12.4 mol

For O₂; we have 2.6 - x

= 2.6 - 1.6

= 1.0 mol

Thus;

[SO₂] = moles / volume = ( 12.4/50) = 0.248 M ,

[O₂] = 1/50 = 0.02 M ,  

[SO₃] = 1.6/50 = 0.032 M

Kc = [SO₃]² / [SO₂]² [O₂]

= ( 0.032²) / ( 0.248² x 0.02)

= 0.8325

Recall that; the equilibrium constant for the reaction 2SO_2 + O_2 \to 2SO_3 = 0.8325;

If we want to find:

SO_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}O_2 \to SO_3

Then:

K_c = (0.8325)^{1/2}

\mathbf{K_c = 0.912}

Since no temperature is given to use in the question, it will be impossible to find the final temperature of the mixture.

What are the parts of the water system? Label the water wheel to show the matter and forms energy that flow through the system.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Source, processing and distribution are the components of water system.

Explanation:

There are three parts of water system i. e. the source, the processing and distribution. Water is extracted from a source such as underground water, lake or river etc. After extraction this water is transported to the processing unit where it can be purified and after purification it is distributed to all places where it is needed. Potential energy is a form of energy that flows through this water system because the water is extracted from a depth and we know that depth and height refers to potential energy.

Use the reaction given below to solve the problem that follows: Calculate the mass in grams of aluminum oxide produced by the re
bearhunter [10]

Answer:  28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}   

\text{Moles of} Al=\frac{15.0g}{27g/mol}=0.556moles

The balanced chemical equuation is:

4Al+3O_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3  

According to stoichiometry :

4 moles of Al produce == 2 moles of Al_2O_3

Thus 0.556 moles of Al will produce=\frac{2}{4}\times 0.556=0.278moles  of Al_2O_3

Mass of Al_2O_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.278moles\times 102g/mol=28.4g

Thus 28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal.
