Smaller atoms and stronger bonds

Option A. Smaller atoms and stronger bonds.

Smaller the size of the atoms, less will be the distance between positive charge nucleus of one atom and electrons (negative charge) of other atom. This results in strong interaction between them.

Also, stronger bonds are difficult to break, making the minerals harder. Thus, small atoms and strong bonds in minerals makes then harder than the minerals with weak bonds or larger atoms.

(35 points) ROCK TYPES. If you help me with this I'll love you forever
4vir4ik [10]

There are so many rock types around! Though, with all the rock types.. there are a few that we study within grade school and such. These types of rocks are,

-Igneous // Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

-Sedimentary // Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of mineral or organic particles on the floor of oceans or other bodies of water at the Earth's surface.

-Metamorphic //  The original rock is subjected to heat and pressure, causing profound physical or chemical change.

Fed [463]

Answer:

T2 = 94.6 C

Explanation:

Use Clausius-Clayperyon equation.

ln P1/P2 = ∆Hvap/R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where R = 8.314 J/mol-K and T is in degrees K

P1 = 760 mmHg

P2 = 630 mmHg  

T1 = 373 K

T2 = ?

∆Hvap = 40.7 kJ/mole

R = 0.008314 kJ/mole-K (NOTE: change R to units of kJ)

Plug in and solve for T2

ln 760 mmHg/630 mmHg = 40.7 kJ/mole (1/T2 - 1/373K)

T2 = 367.74 K = 94.6 C
