The answer is: D. Biological precipitation.

Biological precipitation is the deposition of minerals from solution by the agency of organisms .

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass.

Ocean sediments originate from numerous sources:

1) biological activity (biogenous).

2) weathering and erosion of the continents (terrigenous/lithogenous).

3) volcanic eruptions (volcanogenous).

4) chemical processes (hydrogenous).

Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) is made of calcium, carbon and oxygen atoms.

How many valence electrons occupy sigma and pi bond orbitals in anthracene?
Alenkasestr [34]

There is no more than 1 sigma bond between any two atoms. Molecules with rings have supplementary sigma bonds, such as benzene rings, which have 6 C−C sigma bonds within the ring for 6 carbon atoms. The anthracene molecular formula is C14H10, it has three rings so that the rule contributes the number of sigma bonds as 24 added with 3 is 27, which will be subtracted with 1 which will give 26.

At high trns phosphine (pH2) dissociates into phosphorus and hydrogen by the following reaction: At SOW C the rate at which phos
Rom4ik [11]

Answer: 0.75 moles of Phosphorus and 4.5 moles of Hydrogen are produced respectively from 3 moles of Phosporus.

Explanation:

4PH3 --------> P4 + 6H2

From the stochiometry of the reaction,

4 moles of Phosphine gives 1 mole of Phosphorus

3 moles of Phosphine will give (3×1)/4 moles of Phosphorus.

Therefore, 0.75 moles of Phosphorus is produced.

Similarly, 4 moles of Phosphine gives 6 moles of Hydrogen

3 moles of Phosphine will give (3×6)/4 moles of Hydrogen.

Therefore, 4.5 moles of Hydrogen is produced.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

an element.

Explanation:

When all the atoms contain a nucleus with the same amount of protons then each atom is classified as the same element. Hence multiple atoms and a larger quantity of atoms of the same element is still just the same single element.
