Answer:

Divergent boundary on land

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region that forms where Earth’s tectonic plates move apart (diverge), or rift. Rift valleys are found both on land and at the bottom of the ocean, where they are created by the process of seafloor spreading.

Rift valleys are created by tectonic activity and not the process of erosion.

Tectonic plates are huge, rocky slabs of Earth's lithosphere—its crust and upper mantle. Tectonic plates are constantly in motion—shifting against each other in fault zones, falling beneath one another in a process called subduction, crashing against one another at convergent plate boundaries, and tearing apart from each other at divergent plate boundaries.

The most well-known rift valley on Earth is probably the so-called "Great Rift Valley System" which stretches from the Middle East in the north to Mozambique in the south. The area is geologically active, and features volcanoes, hot springs, geysers, and frequent earthquakes.

How many liters of 4M solution can be made using 100 grams of lithium bromide
uysha [10]
Molar mass of LiBr (mm )= 86.845 g/mol

Molarity ( M ) = 4 M 

Mass of solute ( m ) = 100 g

Volume ( V ) = in liters ?

V = m / mm  * M

V = 100 / 86.845 * 4

V = 100 / 347.38

V = 0.2875 L

hope this helps!.

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS

Explanation:

The lattice energy of ionic species depends on the relative sizes of ions in the ionic compounds. As the size of ions increases, the lattice energy decreases and vice versa.

When the size of the anions are the same, the lattice energy now depends on the relative sizes of the cations. Therefore, since all the compounds are sulphides and the order of magnitude of ionic sizes is: Li^+ < Na^+ < K^+ < Cs^+.

Therefore, the order of decrease in lattice energy is; Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS

This question involves two calculations. The answer to the first part will be
ozzi

Answer :

(a) The mass of Al_2O_3 produced is, 15.2 grams.

(b) The percent yield of the reaction is, 72.5 %

Explanation :

Part (a) :

Given,

Mass of Al = 85.1 g

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of Al

\text{Moles of }Al=\frac{\text{Given mass }Al}{\text{Molar mass }Al}=\frac{85.1g}{27g/mol}=3.15mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of Al_2O_3

The balanced chemical equation is:

4Al+3O_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 moles of Al react to give 2 moles of Al_2O_3

So, 3.15 moles of Al react to give \frac{2}{4}\times 3.15=1.58 mole of Al_2O_3

Now we have to calculate the mass of Al_2O_3

\text{ Mass of }Al_2O_3=\text{ Moles of }Al_2O_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }Al_2O_3

Molar mass of Al_2O_3 = 102 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }Al_2O_3=(1.58moles)\times (102g/mole)=161.2g

Therefore, the mass of Al_2O_3 produced is, 161.2 grams.

Part (b) :

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of the reaction.

\text{Percent yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield = 116.9 g

Theoretical yield = 161.2 g

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

\text{Percent yield}=\frac{116.9g}{161.2g}\times 100=72.5\%

Therefore, the percent yield of the reaction is, 72.5 %
