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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anastasy [175]2 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.

What is the molar mass of an unknown gas<br> with a density of 4.95 g/L at 1.00 atm and<br> 25.0 °C?
mestny [16]

Answer:

121 g/mol

Explanation:

To find the molar mass, you first need to calculate the number of moles. For this, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law. The equation looks like this:

PV = nRT

In this equation,

-----> P = pressure (atm)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = constant (0.0821 L*atm/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

Because density is comparing the mass per 1 liter, I am assuming that the system has a volume of 1 L. Before you can plug the given values into the equation, you first need to convert Celsius to Kelvin.

P = 1.00 atm                         R = 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K

V = 1.00 L                             T = 25.0. °C + 273.15 = 298.15 K

n = ? moles

PV = nRT

(1.00 atm)(1.00L) = n(0.0821 L*atm/mol*K)(298.15 K)

1.00 = n(0.0821 L*atm/mol*K)(298.15 K)

1.00 = (24.478115)n

0.0409 = n

Now, we need to find the molar mass using the number of moles per liter (calculated) and the density.

0.0409 moles           ? grams           4.95 grams
----------------------  x  ------------------  =   ------------------
        1 L                       1 mole                     1 L

? g/mol = 121 g/mol
