Answer: Option (D)

Explanation: Chemical weathering refers to the breakdown of minerals and forming new minerals due to the presence of chemical elements. For example, hydrolysis.

Due to the chemical weathering, initially, the minerals will get dissolved and are carried to the streams and oceans. After that, due to the saturation by water, the crystals will be precipitated out of that existing solution.

This crystals then sinks down to the bottom, forming sedimentary rocks.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Definition of proton and example

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

An elementary particle that is identical with the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, that along with the neutron is a constituent of all other atomic nuclei, that carries a positive charge numerically equal to the charge of an electron.

Example:

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom or the H+ ion is an example of a proton. Regardless of the isotope, each atom of hydrogen has 1 proton; each helium atom contains 2 protons; each lithium atom contains 3 protons and so on.

For the following reaction, KcKc = 255 at 1000 KK.

bonufazy [111]

Answer :

The equilibrium concentration of CO is, 0.016 M

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂ is, 0.034 M

The equilibrium concentration of COCl₂ is, 0.139 M

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

$CO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons COCl_2(g)$

Initial conc. 0.1550 0.173 0

At eqm. (0.1550-x) (0.173-x) x

As we are given:

$K_c=255$

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

$K_c=\frac{[COCl_2]}{[CO][Cl_2]}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$255=\frac{(x)}{(0.1550-x)\times (0.173-x)}$

x = 0.139 and x = 0.193

We are neglecting value of x = 0.193 because equilibrium concentration can not be more than initial concentration.

Thus, we are taking value of x = 0.139

The equilibrium concentration of CO = (0.1550-x) = (0.1550-0.139) = 0.016 M

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂ = (0.173-x) = (0.173-0.139) = 0.034 M

The equilibrium concentration of COCl₂ = x = 0.139 M

Why is it commonly believed that carbon dioxide is responsible for global warming? Select 2 options.

monitta

Answer:

Carbon dioxide levels in the Earth's atmosphere have been steadily increasing.

Carbon has a longer average lifetime in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Today the level of carbon dioxide is higher than at any time in human history. Scientists widely agree that Earth’s average surface temperature has already increased by about 2 F (1 C) since the 1880s, and that human-caused increases in carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases are extremely likely to be responsible.

The lifetime in the air of CO2, the most significant man-made greenhouse gas, is probably the most difficult to determine, because there are several processes that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Between 65% and 80% of CO2 released into the air dissolves into the ocean over a period of 20–200 years.

You have 15.42g of C2H6. How many moles of H2O can be made?

Amiraneli [1.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The moles of water produced are 1.54 moles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$
