Why is the Atlantic Ocean growing larger, but the Pacific Ocean is growing smaller?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anastasy [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A.The Atlantic Ocean has more mid-ocean ridges than the Pacific Ocean so that keeps it growing larger.

Explanation:

Atlantic ocean is getting bigger because of the presence of spreading centers (divergent plate boundary). ... Pacific Ocean is getting smaller because the pacific plate is subducting along the subduction zones. Subduction zones are areas where old, dense plate subducts beneath a less dense plate.

Equation is balanced already
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

1.) 13 g C₄H₁₀

2.) 41 g CO₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of propane (C₄H₁₀) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), you need to (1) convert mass O₂ to moles O₂ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles O₂ to moles C₄H₁₀/CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), and then (3) convert moles C₄H₁₀/CO₂ to mass C₄H₁₀/CO₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answers should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 4(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 58.124 g/mol

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol

Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol

2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ ----> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

 48 g O₂             1 mole             2 moles C₄H₁₀            58.124 g

a gas that exerts a pressure of 215 torr in a container with a volume of 51.0 mL will exert a pressure of ? torr when transferre
zhannawk [14.2K]
To calculate the new pressure, we can use Boyle’s law to relate these two scenarios (Boyle’s law is used because the temperature is assumed to remain constant). Boyle’s law is:

P1V1 = P2V2,

Where “P” is pressure and “V” is volume. The pressure and volume of the first scenario is 215 torr and 51 mL, respectively, and the second scenario has a volume of 18.5 L (18,500 mL) and the unknown pressure - let’s call that “x”. Plugging these into the equation:

(215 torr)(51 mL) =(“x” torr)(18,500 mL)
x = 0.593 torr

The final pressure exerted by the gas would be 0.593 torr.

Hope this helps!
