Answer:

convection currents in the mantle

Explanation:

Convection currents in the mantle are always moving, and make the plates move too. The plates are resting on top of the mantle, which is where the convection currents are, which make them move along with the magma.

Ivahew [28]

The temperature of liquid nitrogen (LN), an inert cryogenic fluid, is 196 °C (320 °F). To drop the temperature of the concrete as much as is possible without causing it to freeze, LN is directly injected by lances into the batch water storage tank, the aggregate, or the mixer.

<h3>What is Cryopreservation ?</h3>

Cryopreservation is the process of preserving live cells, tissues, and other biological samples by placing them in a deep freezer at extremely low temperatures. The sample is typically stored at 196°C or lower. All of a cell's biological processes come to an end at such low temperatures, and the cell dies.

  • Cells and tissues intended for transplantation are frequently stored via cryopreservation. A extremely stable ultra-low temperature environment is provided by liquid nitrogen. It is therefore employed for long-term storage.

How many moles of H2s are produced when 2.25 moles Hcl react with excess zns
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

1.125 moles of H2S

Explanation:

From 2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ---------> H2S (g) + ZnCl2 (aq)

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of HCl produces 1 mole of H2S

Therefore 2.25 moles of HCl will produce 2.25 ×1/2 = 1.125 moles of H2S

Recall that it was explicitly stated in the question that ZnS is the reactant in excess. This implies that HCl is the limiting reactant and controls the amount of product obtained.

The atomic masses of 151eu and 153eu are 150.919860 and 152.921243 amu, respectively. The average atomic mass of europium is 151
vitfil [10]

Answer:-  The natural abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 or 47.8% and ^1^5^3_E_u is 0.522 or 52.2% .

Solution:- Average atomic mass of an element is calculated from the atomic masses of it's isotopes and their abundances using the formula:

Average atomic mass = mass of first isotope(abundance) + mass of second isotope(abundance)

We have been given with atomic masses for ^1^5^1_E_u and ^1^5^3_E_u as 150.919860 and 152.921243 amu, respectively.  Average atomic mass of Eu is 151.964 amu.

Sum of natural abundances of isotopes of an element is always 1. If we assume the abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u as n then the abundance of ^1^5^3_E_u would be 1-n .

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

151.964=150.919860(n)+152.921243(1-n)

151.964=150.919860n+152.921243-152.921243n

on keeping similar terms on same side:

151.964-152.921243=150.919860n-152.921243n

-0.957243=-2.001383n

negative sign is on both sides so it is canceled:

0.957243=2.001383n

n=\frac{0.957243}{2.001383}

n=0.478

The abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 which is 47.8%.  

The abundance of ^1^5^3_E_u is = 1-0.478

= 0.522 which is 52.2%

Hence, the natural abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 or 47.8% and ^1^5^3_E_u is 0.522 or 52.2% .
