The correct answer is - intrusive rocks.

The intrusion is a process in which the rising magma in the Earth's crust, manages to break through pre-existing layers of rock, and after that cool off, solidify, and create new intrusive igneous rocks. By doing so, the magma is breaking up the layers of rocks, thus the intrusive igneous rocks that are forming from it, come to be inside totally different rock units. The intrusions are always happening inside the crust, and the rocks formed from them are igneous rocks that have large crystals because of the slow cooling off of the magma.

Describe the energy tranformations involved in heating the soup in a microwave

Llana [10]

<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

The energy transformation involved in heating soup in microwaves occurs due to microwave radiation. The radiant energy which also known as heat energy in the microwave causes the water molecules in the soup to gain kinetic energy. Hence, the molecules collide with each other more often causing the soup to heat up in form of waves that are built within the microwave. This is also the reason it is termed as mircowave due to release of waves.

The compound sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte. Write the reaction when solid sodium carbonate is put into water:

Ludmilka [50]

The compound sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte because it completely dissociates when placed in water into its component ions. The equation of the reaction can be expressed as:

$Na_2CO_3_{(s)} ---> 2 Na^+_{(aq)} + CO_3^{(2+)}_{(aq)}$

The dissociation leads to the formation of sodium and carbonate ions with the latter held together by its internal covalent bond.

This is unlike weak electrolytes that do not dissociate completely in water or aqueous solutions. Only a small fraction of the solute exists as ions in the solution.
