Chemistry
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It's the bottom layer.  

Explanation:

Scientists use the Law of Superposition to determine the relative age of a layer of sedimentary rock:

The oldest rock layer is at the bottom of an undisturbed bed.

Thus, Layer A in the figure below was deposited first.

If you take a 15.0-mL portion of the stock solution and dilute it to a total volume of 0.700 L , what will be the concentration
nadezda [96]

Answer:

0.321M would be the concentration of the final solution

Explanation:

In the problem, you are decreasing the concentration of a solution (The stock solution) by the addition of more solvent (This process is known as dilution).

You are increasing the volume of the solution from 15mL to 700mL, that means the solution <em>is diluted:</em>

700mL / 15mL = 46.67 times

Now, to know the concentration of a final solution we need to take the concentration of the stock solution. <em>Assuming the stock solution is 15M:</em>

15M / 46.67 =

<h3>0.321M would be the concentration of the final solution</h3>

Limestone and lime are used in the treatment of acidic soils. what are the advantages and disadvantages of using limestone or li
Otrada [13]

Answer:

This study is an overview of previous studies on lime (quick and hydrated) -treated soil. Lime is the oldest traditional stabilizer used for soil stabilization. The mechanism of soil-lime treatment involves cation exchange, which leads to the flocculation and agglomeration of soil particles. The high pH environment then causes a pozzolanic reaction between the free Ca+2 cations and the dissolved silica and alumina. Lime-treated soil effectively increases the strength, durability and workability of the soil. Such treatment also improves soil compressibility. A fluctuation behavior was observed on the influence of lime on soil permeability. However, the factors affecting the permeability of the soil-lime mixture should be extensively studied. Nonetheless, lime treatment has a number of inherent disadvantages, such as carbonation, sulfate attack and environment impact. Magnesium oxide/hydroxide are thus proposed as a suitable alternative stabilizer to overcome at least some of the disadvantages of using lime in soil stabilization.

Explanation:

Actually I have a pdf on it to explain more if you want but how to get it to you is the issue. well I'm guessing the one I've put out should be very much okay, I hope so .
