All you have to do is research more about this scientist´s theory. Just google: Why wasn´t Wegner´s hypothesis accepted?
Trust me, the answers are there.<span>
</span>Next time just research it.
Wegner´s idea seemed so ridiculous at the time that he was ridiculed by other scientists. The problem was that to his colleagues there seemed no plausible mechanism for how the continents could move through the oceans.
I think that pressure will affect the solubility of gasses the most. The reason why I think this is that gasses are affected the most by pressure change. By definition solids and liquids are not easily affected by pressure by how close the molecules are to each other in both of those phases.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions or need any clarification.
Answer:
In pure water, at 25C, the [H3O+] and [OH-] ion concentrations are 1.0 x 10-7 M. The value of Kw at 25C is therefore 1.0 x 10-14. Although Kw is defined in terms of the dissociation of water, this equilibrium constant expression is equally valid for solutions of acids and bases dissolved in water.
Explanation:
Answer:
Sound waves are travelling vibrations of particles in media such as air, water or metal. So it stands to reason that they cannot travel through empty space, where there are no atoms or molecules to vibrate.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) Warmer
b) Exothermic
c) -10.71 kJ
Explanation:
The reaction:
KOH(s) → KOH(aq) + 43 kJ/mol
It is an exothermic reaction since the reaction liberates 43 kJ per mol of KOH dissolved.
Hence, the dissolution of potassium hydroxide pellets to water provokes that the beaker gets warmer for being an exothermic reaction.
The enthalpy change for the dissolution of 14 g of KOH is:
<u>Where:</u>
m: is the mass of KOH = 14 g
M: is the molar mass = 56.1056 g/mol
The enthalpy change is:
The minus sign of 43 is because the reaction is exothermic.
I hope it helps you!
