Answer: d. have the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron as their structural unit.

Explanation:

Silicates are anions that have both Oxygen and Silicon as the basis of their structure. These two form a tetrahedron type structure that enable them to be useful for a whole lot of things.

Silicates are very abundant on Earth as they comprise around 95% of the Earth's crust as well as the upper mantle which explains why they are mostly found in igneous rocks.

A buffer is prepared by adding 150mL of 0.50 M NH3 to 250mL of 0.50 M NH4NO3. What is the pH of the final solution? (Kb for NH3
Juli2301 [7.4K]

From the calculations, the pH of the final solution is 9.04.

<h3>What is the pH of the buffer?</h3>

We can use the Henderson Hasselbach equation to obtain the final pH of the solution in terms of the pKb and the base concentration.

Number of moles of salt = 250/1000 L * 0.5 M = 0.125 moles

Number of moles of base = 150/1000 L * 0.5 M = 0.075 moles

Total volume of solution = 250ml + 150ml = 400ml or 0.4 L

Molarity of base = 0.075 moles/ 0.4 L = 0.1875 M

Molarity of salt = 0.125 moles/ 0.4 L = 0.3125 M

pOH = pKb + log[salt/base]

pKb = -log(1.8 x 10^-5) = 4.74

pOH = 4.74 + log[0.3125/0.1875 ]

pOH = 4.96

pH = 14- 4.96

pH = 9.04

I find that there are 500 atoms of U-235 and 1500 atoms of Pb-207. If we assume the mineral contained only parent and no daughte
swat32

Explanation:

From the question it can be infered that initially only parent atoms were present in the rock and  no daughter atom. So, initially there was only uranium atom and no lead atom. So, in total there were 500+1500= 2000 uranium atom. And no lead tom was there.

Given a force of 100.00 N and an acceleration of 5 m/s2, what is the mass of the object?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

<h2>20 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{100}{5}  = 20 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you
