Shale, and Sandstone are the rocks formed by precipitation of calcium carbonate from sea water.

Option B and D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Calcium carbonate can get precipitated from sea water and it forms rocks termed as limestones. These limestones are a variety of sedimentary rocks. Along with it, shale and sandstones are also varieties of sedimentary rocks and they also contain some of the precipitation of calcium carbonate.

The composition of sandstones consists of quartz and feldspar along with some of the composition of calcium carbonate. The same concept goes for Shale also. Basically, Shale is a mixuture of Clay but they can combine with limestone.

Thus, Shale, Sandstone and limestones are the rocks formed by precipitation of calcium carbonate from sea water.

A 2.1−mL volume of seawater contains about 4.0 × 10−10 g of gold. The total volume of ocean water is about 1.5 × 1021 L. Calcula

Answer:

Total worth of gold in the ocean = $5,840,000,000,000,000

Explanation:

As stated in the question above, 4.0 x 10^-10 g of gold was present in 2.1mL of ocean water.

Therefore, In 1 L of ocean water there will be,

(4.0 x 10^-10)/0.0021

= 1.9045 x 10^-7 g of gold per Liter of ocean water.

So in 1.5 x 10^-21 L of ocean water, there will be

(1.9045 x 10^-7) * (1.5 x 10^-21)

= 2.857 x 10^14 g of gold in the ocean.

1 gram of gold costs $20.44, that is 20.44 dollars/gram. The total cost of the gold present in the ocean is

20.44 * (2.857 x 10^14)

= $5,840,000,000,000,000
