Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Weathering is usually defined as the disintegration of rocks at the surface of the earth. This break down of rocks is mainly caused by the geological processes that occur on the earth's surface. This process results in the formation of sediments that are transported and deposited in a new environment.

This weathering process primarily takes place in three different ways such as-

  • Physical weathering- Here, the rocks are broken down by the physical agents such as wind, water, ice.
  • Chemical weathering- Here the rocks are broken down when interacts with the chemical containing water.
  • Biological weathering- here, the rocks are broken down due to the activities done by organisms such as plants and animals.

In the given condition, Quincy can see a real example of rock weathering in the high mountainous region, as in the mountainous region the rocks are frequently weathered and eroded by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

When 92.0 g of ethanol (c2h5oh are vaporized at its boiling point of 78.3°c, it requires 78.6 kj of energy. what is the approxim
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>(78.6 kJ) / (92.0 g / (46.0684 g C2H5OH/mol)) = 39.4 kJ/mol </span>

<span>39.3 </span>

So the approximate molar heat of vaporization of ethanol in kJ/mol is 39.3.

I hope this answers your question.

Does wind speed affect evaporation? How?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Wind moving over a water or land surface can also carry away water vapor, essentially drying the air, which leads to increased evaporation rates.

1. If we used 0.0100 moles of K2CO3, how many moles of SrCO3 can be expected to form?​
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

0.01 moles of SrCO₃

Explanation:

In this excersise we need to propose the reaction:

K₂CO₃ + Sr(NO₃)₂  →  2KNO₃ + SrCO₃

As we only have data about the potassium carbonate  we assume the strontium nitrite as the excess reactant.

1 mol of K₂CO₃ react to 1 mol of Sr(NO₃)₂ in order to produce 2 moles of potassium nitrite and 1 mol of strontium carbonate.

Ratio is 1:1. In conclussion,

0.01 mol of K₂CO₃ must produce 0.01 moles of SrCO₃

How many miles of C atoms are present in a sample of 3.85x1024 C atoms?
alekssr [168]
Answer:
number of moles = 6.393 moles

Explanation:
One mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number (6.022 * 10^23) of atoms. 
Therefore, to know the number of moles that contain 3.85 * 10^24 atoms, all we have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
1 mole ......................> 6.022 * 10^23
?? moles ..................> 3.85 * 10^24
number of moles = (3.85 * 10^24 *1) / (6.022 * 10^23)
number of moles = 6.393 moles

Hope this helps :)

What are nanochemicals and what are there uses?
NARA [144]

Nanochemicals can be defined as chemicals generated by using nanomaterials (materials that possess of size on nanometer dimensions). The nanochemicals are used in multiple different applications including chemical warfare, bicycle making, armor design and military weapons crafting. The most commonly used and observed nanochemicals are carbon nanotubes that are used a ton in industry for applications such as stronger materials (stronger bicycles).

Smart materials are exquisitely designed materials whose property(ies) can be modified with the use of an external stimulus such as temperature, stress, pH, and so on. Some examples of smart materials include shape memory materials, piezoelectric materials, ferrofluids, self-healing materials, and such. Applications involve memory pillows, memory based solar panels (for satellites), light sensitive glasses, and so on.

Specialized materials are made specifically to perform a specified task or function. Applications involve electronic equipment (high purity silicon & germanium), machine tools (high tungsten high carbon steel), dental filling (dental amalgam), and so on.
