The correct answer is B. The tendency of molecules to move toward areas of lower concentration is called diffusion. This happens when there is a concentration gradient. This is described by the Fick's laws of diffusion. Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from a higher concentration to lower concentration to achieve equilibrium.

Sediment layers stop lateral spreading when:

GREYUIT [131]

Sediment layers stop lateral spreading when they encounter a barrier and they run out of additional sedimentary material. Lateral spreading is the lateral movement of gently to steeply sloping, saturated soil deposits caused by earthquake-induced liquefaction. Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

$1.7\cdot 10^{15} g$

Explanation:

Glucose reacts with oxygen do produce carbon dioxide and water:

$C_6H_12O_6 (s) + 6 O_2 (g)\rightarrow 6 CO_2 (g) + 6 H_2O (l)$

Given a daily mass of glucose:

$m_1 = 5.0\cdot 10^2 g$

Find moles of glucose:

$n_1 = {5.0\cdot 10^2 g}{180.156 g/mol} = 2.775 mol$

From stoichiometry of this equation, moles of carbon dioxide can be found by multiplying this amount by 6:

$n_2 = 2.775 mol\cdot 6=16.65 mol$

Convert this into mass using the molar mass of carbon dioxide:

$m_2 = 16.65 mol\cdot 44.01 g/mol = 732.8 g$

This is the mass of carbon dioxide per person per day. Multiply by the population and by the number of days to get the total mass:

$732.8 \frac{g}{person\cdot day}\cdot 365 days\cdot 6.5\cdot 10^9 people = 1.7\cdot 10^{15} g$

How many Mg atoms are presented in 3.00 moles of MgCl2

ella [17]

Answer:

1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms

Explanation:

To find the number of atoms in the given number of moles, we need to understand that every substance contains the Avogadro's number of particles.

More appropriately, a mole of any substance will contain the Avogadro's number of particles which is 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

So;

If 1 mole of a substance = 6.02 x 10²³ atoms;

3 mole of MgCl₂ will contain 3 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 1.81 x 10²⁴ atoms
