Which landscape will erode more quickly? Assume the same precipitation and average temperature in each landscape.
1 answer:
Answer:
B. Landscape B
Explanation:
Shale is fine sediment pressed together to form rock.
Sandstone is larger (sand-grain-sized) sediment cemented together to form rock.
Shale erodes faster, as evidenced by the second attachment. That attachment shows erosion of a rock face consisting of interbedded shale and sandstone. The shale has receded significantly, leaving the sandstone layers with space between them.

Answer:
Explanation:
When we add salt to water entropy of the system increases because some amount of energy is released as salt dissolves in the water due to the dissociation of ions.
Therefore entropy of the system after the salt dissolves is highest among them all and the least entropy is associated when mixing begins.
Entropy is the degree of randomness and it increases when salt dissociates to as these ions are freer to move inside an aqueous solution compared to Previous state.
