Earthquakes along the San Andreas fault in California.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • When the two plates collide with each other, earthquakes occur. The contact between them makes this earthquake possible. The contact forces are responsible for the earthquakes as there is contact between two plates.          
  • The gravitational force is a force that is responsible for elevated tides happening on the east coast or the Jupiter's moons to remain in orbit. But this is not a contact force as there is no contact between them
  • Moreover, Without any contact, the magnetic force is a non-contact as it attracts the pins from a distance.

How many grams of 02 will be formed from 6.5 moles of KCLO3
Allisa [31]

Answer:

312 g of O₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2KClO₃ —> 2KCl + 3O₂

From the balanced equation above,

2 mole of KClO₃ decomposed to 3 moles of O₂.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ produced by the reaction of 6.5 moles of KClO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 mole of KClO₃ decomposed to 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 6.5 moles of KClO₃ will decompose to produce = (6.5 × 3)/2 = 9.75 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 9.75 moles of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of O₂ = 9.75 moles

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ =?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

9.75 = Mass of O₂ / 32

Cross multiply

Mass of O₂ = 9.75 × 32

Mass of O₂ = 312 g

Thus, 312 g of O₂ were obtained from the reaction.

How plastic polymer types of compositions, surface hydrophobicity, crystallinity, porosity, size, shapes, aging or degree of wea
Andreas93 [3]

Explanation:

Scientific evidences abound of the occurrence of plastic pollution, from mega- to nano-sized plastics, in virtually all matrixes of the environment. Apart from the direct effects of plastics and microplastics pollution such as entanglement, inflammation of cells and gut blockage due to ingestion, plastics are also able to act as vectors of various chemical contaminants in the aquatic environment. This paper provides a review of the association of plastic additives with environmental microplastics, how the structure and composition of polymers influence sorption capacities and highlights some of the models that have been employed to interpret experimental data from recent sorption studies. The factors that influence the sorption of chemical contaminants such as the degree of crystallinity, surface weathering, and chemical properties of contaminants. and the implications of chemical sorption by plastics for the marine food web and human health are also discussed. It was however observed that most studies relied on pristine or artificially aged plastics rather than field plastic samples for studies on chemical sorption by plastics.

Nitella [24]

Explanation:

1. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms

2. Dalton's atomic theory

3. J. J. Thomson discovers the electron

4. Rutherford's gold foil experiment

5. Bohr model

6. Schrödinger's Wave Mechanics model of the atom

The first idea about matter containing atoms dates back to Greek philosophers. One of them was Democritus .

In 1808 Dalton put forward his atomic theory

In 1897 J.J Thomson discovered cathode rays using his gas discharge tube experiment.

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom using experiments on the gold foil.

Neils Bohr in 1913 suggested his own atomic model

Erwin Schrodinger formulated the wave equation of electrons
