PSYCHO15rus [73]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No, scientists did not accept Wegener's theory

Explanation:

In a book titled; "The Origin of Continents and Oceans", published in 1915, Wegener introduced his ideas about the theory of continental drift.

According to his idea, "all the continents were once joined together in an "Urkontinent" before breaking up and drifting to their current positions"(live science).

Though some of his ideas were correct, some of them were also quite wrong. Scientists rejected his idea because he did not detail any mechanism by which the continental drift occurs.

A mouse runs across a 4.56 m kitchen floor in 3.42 seconds . What is the velocity of the mouse
Lerok [7]
Velocity is the change in position divided by the time . In your problem, it should be expressed in meters per second. To solve, you must divide the distance, 4.56 meters, by the time it takes to travel that distance, which is 3.42 seconds ----->   4.56/3.42 = 1.333 meters per second is the velocity of the mouse

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3
