koban [17]3 years ago
4 0

The answer is B. the occurrence of huge events in Earth's natural history

The geologic time scale is a system of chronological dating that relates geological strata to time. It is used by geologists, paleontologists, and other Earth scientists to describe the timing and relationships of events that have occurred during Earth's history.

A student sets up the following equation...
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Concentration (g/mL) = 0.04 g/mL

Concentration (g/L) =?

We can convert g/mL to g/L by doing the following:

1 g/mL = 1000 g/L

Therefore,

0.04 g/mL = 0.04 g/mL × 1000 g/L / 1 g/mL

0.04 g/mL = 40 g/L

0.04 g/mL is equivalent to 40 g/L.

Thus, the concentration (g/L) is 40 g/L

At what temperature does iron turn into a gas? What does this tell you about the attraction between iron’s particles?
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer: In gases the particles move rapidly in all directions, frequently colliding with each other and the side of the container. With an increase in temperature, the particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. The actual average speed of the particles depends on their mass as well as the temperature – heavier particles move more slowly than lighter ones at the same temperature. The oxygen and nitrogen molecules in air at normal room temperature are moving rapidly at between 300 to 400 metres per second. Unlike collisions between macroscopic objects, collisions between particles are perfectly elastic with no loss of kinetic energy.

Explanation:  This is very different to most other collisions where some kinetic energy is transformed into other forms such as heat and sound. It is the perfectly elastic nature of the collisions that enables the gas particles to continue rebounding after each collision with no loss of speed. Particles are still subject to gravity and hit the bottom of a container with greater force than the top, and giving gases weight. Hope this helps with your problem! Byeeee :DDD

What is the main difference between active transport and passive transport? *
svp [43]

Answer:

There are two major ways that molecules can be moved across a membrane, and the distinction has to do with whether or not cell energy is used. Passive mechanisms like diffusion use no energy, while active transport requires energy to get done.
