The kind of magma that is found in the most explosive volcanoes, the composite volcanoes, is andesitic magma. It is magma that is quite high in silica content which makes it thick, sticky and gooey. Great lumps of this sticky magma cool at the top of the volcano to form a sealed cap. Magma beneath the cap builds up and pressure mounts and eventually becomes too much to be contained and the magma violently erupts out from the top, blowing out the cap and shooting miles up into the air and in all directions.
The kind of magma found in gentle volcanoes such as shield volcanoes is runny in consistency. It has very minimal amounts of silica and is not thick but loose. It therefore tends to trickle out of the top of the volcano rather than erupt or explode.
The answer is Vestigal. It is a type of anatomical structure that no longer serves any function. Over time they are no longer needed in the body. Apart from the wisdom tooth, another example would be the tail bone which has no use for humans.
Answer:
80 grams
Explanation:
number of moles=mass/molar mass .
5=x/16, x=16*5
x=80 grams
Answer:
V₂ = 4.0L
Explanation:
Decreasing temperature => Decreasing Volume (Charles Law)
For a given volume, use a temperature ratio that will give a smaller volume.
Volume at lower temp = 4.6L(70K/82K) = 4.0L ... Using (82K/70K) would give a larger volume => contrary to temperature effects on gas volumes when pressure and mass are kept constant.
Pressure effects on Gas Volumes:
Note: The same idea is applied to pressure effects on gas volumes also except that changes in pressure affect gas volumes indirectly. That is, an increase in pressure => decrease in volume, or a decrease in pressure => increase in volume. Boyles Law => V ∝ 1/P.
Given a gas volume of 4.60L at 760mmHg, what is volume at 848mmHg?
Increasing pressure => Decreases Volume (Boyles Law)
For the given volume use a pressure ratio that will give a smaller volume.
Volume at higher pressure = 4.6L(760mm/848mm) =4.1L. Using (848mm/760mm) would give a larger volume => contrary to pressure effects on gas volume when temperature and mass of gas are kept constant.
