The surface waves are the type of seismic waves that produce the most severe ground movement. This wave is slow in nature and so produces a rolling effect similar to a surface wave in a pond. This kind of wave is far more devastating than the P waves and the S waves. The surface waves have the capacity to shake a building from side to side until it collapses. This kind of wave moves in a pattern similar to a circle. It actually originates at a point and then start moving outwards in a circle.

One way to heat a gas is to compress it. a gas at 1.00 atm at 25.0°c is compressed to one tenth of its original volume, and it r

Tanzania [10]

(p1)(V1)/(T1) = (p2)(V2)/(T2)
(1.00 atm)(V) / (273 + 25K) = (40.0 atm)(V/10) / (273 + T)
273 + T = (40.0)(1/10)(273 + 25K) / (1.00)
T = 919°C

If a 100. -g sample of a hydrated compound contains 37.07-g sodium, 48.39-g carbonate and 14.54-g water, find the empirical form

Mumz [18]

he required empirical formula based on the data provided is Na2CO3.H2O.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The term empirical formula refers to the formula of a compound which shows the ratio of each specie present.

We have the following;

Mass of sodium = 37.07-g

Mass of carbonate = 48.39 g

Mass of water = 14.54-g

Number of moles of sodium = 37.07-g/23 g/mol = 2 moles

Number of moles of carbonate = 48.39 g/61 g/mol = 1 mole

Number of moles of water = 14.54/18 g/mol = 1 mole

The mole ratio is 2 : 1: 1

Hence, the required empirical formula is Na2CO3.H2O
