In the early 1900s, a scientist named Alfred Wegener noticed how the continents seem to fit together and developed the Theory of Continental Drift. Continental drift is the theory that continents can drift apart from one other and have done so in the past. Wegner's theory also explained why fossils of the same plant and animal species are found on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. In addition similar types of rock and evidence of the same ancient climatic conditions are found on several continents.
Wegner hypothesized that all the separate continents of today were once joined in a single landmass that he called Pangaea.
Answer:
C) carbon dioxide and hydrigen
For this system, we use Dalton's law of partial pressures where the total pressure of a gas mixture is said to be equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases. The partial pressure of each gas would be calculated by the product of the mole fraction and the original pressure of the gas. We do as follows:
Total pressure = x1P1 + x2P2
Total pressure = (2.0 / 7.0 )(3.5) + (1.5/7.0)(2.6)
Total pressure = 1.56 atm
Mass is related to weight. It measures the resistance of the substance to acceleration when a net force is applied.
Therefore: armful of lead has more mass
volume measures the amount of 3-dimensional space that an object occupies.
Therefore: kilogram of feather has more volume as it is less dense.
density is the mass per unit volume. Since armful of lead has more mass than a handful of feathers, while kilogram of feather has more volume than a kilogram of lead.
Therefore: kilogram of lead has higher density.
Answer:
CaO + SO 3 → CaSO. 4
This is an acid-base reaction (neutralization): CaO is a base, SO 3 is an acid.
