Collision of which two types of plates create the deepest earthquakes? Why do you think this is?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Elis [28]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The collision of oceanic plates and any other plates in which the oceanic plate slides beneath the other plate creates the biggest earth quakes. Most of these earth quakes occur beneath the sea or oceans and can cause volcanic eruptions as well. Tsunami is another oceanic event that occurs due to earth quakes occurring due to shifting of plates beneath the sea.

If 0.905 mol Al2O3 is produced in the reaction, what mass of Fe in product's
Marrrta [24]

<u>Answer:</u> Amount of iron produced is 101.36 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the reaction of aluminium and iron oxide, the equation follows:

2Al+Fe_2O_3\rightarrow Al_2O_3+2Fe

By Stoichiometry of the reaction,

When 1 mole of aluminium oxide is produced, then 2 moles of iron is also produced.

So, when 0.905 moles of aluminium oxide is produced, then \frac{ 2}{1}\times 0.905mol=1.81moles of iron is also produced.

Now, to calculate the amount of iron produced, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Moles of iron = 1.81 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.81mol=\frac{\text{Mass of iron}}{56g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of iron produced}=101.36g

Hence, amount of iron produced is 101.36 grams.

Chlorination of alkanes can produce a multitude of products. Determine the number of monochlorinated and dichlorinated products
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

monochlorinated products: 4

dichlorinated products: 12

Explanation:

Chlorination of alkanes is a reaction that takes place when the chlorine is in presence of light. This actually decomposes the chlorine, and one atom of Chlorine substracts an hydrogen from the alkane. Now, this hydrogen substracted comes usually from the most substitued carbon, because it's more stable (A tertiary carbon is more stable than a secondary carbon, and this more stable than primary).

When this happens, the other chlorine atom, goes as electrophyle in that carbon and formed the chlorinated product. Now, although a tertiary carbon is more stable, we can still have (in minor quantities) chlorinated products that comes from a secondary and primary carbon. The first picture shows the general mechanism of the chlorination, and the possible products for a monochlorinated.

The second picture shows the possible dichlorinated products, which are in higher quantities than the monochlorinated basicallu because of the variety of positions the chlorine can be. So, second picture shows all the products.
