Answer:

D. Time and pressure changes dead plant material to peat.

Explanation:

There are four steps in the production of coal: peat, lignite, bituminous and anthracite.

Peat: in this stage dead plants are oxidized to water and carbon dioxide and buried under sediments. The partial decomposition of plant matter due to the absence of oxygen is called peat. There is no factor of time and pressure that changes dead plant material to peat.

Lignite: Peat is subjected to heat, pressure, and time to form lignite.

Bituminous: More pressure in lignite removes all the traces of plant matter and form “soft coal”, bituminous coal.

Anthracite: It is the last stage, in which hard coal forms with the combined pressure and high temperature.

Hence, the correct answer is "D. Time and pressure changes dead plant material to peat."

Milk of magnesia, a suspension of mg(oh)2 in water, reacts with stomach acid (hcl) in a neutralization reaction. mg(oh)2(s) + 2
defon
Balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ---> MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of Mg(OH)₂ to MgCl₂ is 1:1
mass of Mg(OH)₂ reacted - 1.82 g
number of moles of Mg(OH)₂  - 1.82 g/ 58.3 g/mol = 0.0312 mol
number of Mg(OH)₂  moles reacted - number of MgCl₂ moles formed 
number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.0312 mol
mass of MgCl₂ formed - 0.0312 mol x 95.2 g/mol = 2.97 g
mass of MgCl₂ formed - 2.97 g

How many moles of KNO3 are in 500 mL of 2. 0 M KNO3? mol KNO3.
8090 [49]

The moles can be defined as the mass of the substance with respect to molar mass. The moles of potassium nitrate is 1 mol.

<h3>How to calculate moles of a substance?</h3>

The moles of a compound can be calculated from:

\rm Moles=\dfrac{Mass}{Molar\;mass}

The molarity can be defined as the moles of solute in a liter of solution.

The molarity can be expressed as:

\rm Molarity=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{Volume\;(mL)}

The molarity of potassium nitrate solution is 2 M, and the volume is 500 mL.

The moles of potassium nitrate is given as:

\rm 2\;M=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{500\;mL}\\ Moles=\dfrac{2\;\times\;500}{1000}\;mol\\ Moles=1\;mol

The moles of potassium nitrate in 2 M, 500 mL solution are 1 mol.
