What happens when a oceanic crust and a continent crust collide? What forms ? Which is more denser? What type of boundary?

1 answer:

8 0

At some convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denser oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust. This forms what is called a subduction zone.

5g of a mixture of KOH and KCl with water form a solution of 250mL. We have 25ml of this solution and we mix it with 14,3mL of H

cricket20 [7]

We know that the number of moles HCl in 14.3mL of 0.1M HCl can be found by multiplying the volume (in L) by the concentration (in M).
(0.0143L HCl)x(0.1M HCl)=0.00143 moles HCl

Since HCl reacts with KOH in a one to one molar ratio (KOH+HCl⇒H₂O+KCl), the number of moles HCl used to neutralize KOH is the number of moles KOH. Therefore the 25mL solution had to contain 0.00143mol KOH.

To find the mass of KOH in the original mixture you have to divide the number of moles of KOH by the 0.025L to find the molarity of the KOH solution..
(0.00143mol KOH)/(0.025L)=0.0572M KOH

Since the morality does not change when you take some of the solution away, we know that the 250mL solution also had a molarity of 0.0572. That being said you can find the number of moles the mixture had by multiplying 0.0572M KOH by 0.250L to get the number of moles of KOH.
(0.0572M KOH)x(0.250L)=0.0143mol KOH

Now you can find the mass of the KOH by multiplying it by its molar mass of 56.1g/mol.
0.0143molx56.1g/mol=0.802g KOH

Finally you can calulate the percent KOH of the original mixture by dividing the mass of the KOH by 5g.
0.802g/5g=0.1604
the original mixture was 16% KOH

I hope this helps.

What does ''Isotope'' means? &from which language that drives from? answer to me then you will have 20 points help me then y

coldgirl [10]

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.

The term isotope is formed from the Greek roots isos ("equal") and topos ("place"), meaning "the same place".

Anything in red is the question

Answer:

Question 19: the three are molecular compounds.

Question 20: CuSO₄.5H₂O

Explanation:

<em>Question 19.</em>

C₂H₄

H₂O₂

All of them are the combination of two kinds of different atoms in fixed proportions.

C₂H₄: two carbon atoms per four hydrogen atoms

HF: one hydrogen atom per one fluorine atom

H₂O₂: two hydrogen atoms per two oxygent atoms

Thus, they all meet the definition of compund: a pure substance formed by two or more different elements with a definite composition.

Molecular compounds are formed by covalent bonds and ionic compounds are formed by ionic bonds.

Two non-metal elements, like H-F, C - C, C - H, H-O, H - H, and O - O will share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their valence shell. Thus, the three compounds are molecular and not ionic.

<em>Question 20. </em>Formula of copper(II) sulfate hydrate with 36.0% water.

Copper(II) sulfate is CuSO₄. Its molar mass is 159.609g/mol

Water is H₂O. Its molar mass is 18.015g/mol

Calling x the number of water molecules in the hydrate, the percentage of water is:

$\dfrac{18.015x}{18.015x+159.609}=36\%\\ \\ \\ \dfrac{18.015x}{18.015x+159.609}=0.36$

From which we can solve for x:

$18.015x=6.4854x+57.45924\\ \\ 11.5296x=57.45924\\ \\ x\approx4.98\approx5$

Thus, there are 5 molecules of water per each unit of CuSO₄, and the formula is:

CuSO₄.5H₂O

Ammonium perchlorate NH4ClO4 is a powerful solid rocket fuel, used in the Space Shuttle boosters. It decomposes into nitrogen N2

patriot [66]

Answer: 0.055 moles of $O_2$ are produced by the reaction of 0.055 mol of ammonium perchlorate.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction for decomposition of ammonium perchlorate is:

$2NH_4ClO_4\rightarrow N_2+Cl_2+2O_2+4H_2O$

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of $NH_4ClO_4$ produce = 2 moles of $O_2$

Thus 0.055 moles of $NH_4ClO_4$ will produce = $\frac{2}{2}\times 0.055=0.055moles$ of $O_2$

Thus 0.055 moles of $O_2$ are produced by the reaction of 0.055mol of ammonium perchlorate.
