Susanna was hiking in the mountains, and she discovered an interesting, shiny rock. She wondered if this sample was actually a r

ock or if it might be a mineral. As she observed it more closely, she noted that it was solid and naturally occurring, with a definite chemical composition. The sample did not appear to have a crystal structure.
Could Susanna have found a mineral? Explain why or why not.
please help me out

Answer:

Yes it is a mineral

Explanation:

Susanna has found a mineral because the five characteristics of a mineral are naturally occurring solid, crystal structure, forms by inorganic process, and definite chemical composition. Everything that was listed in the question describes the fact that its a mineral.

Brainliest would be appreciated :)

Se requieren preparar 1500 ml de una solución al 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, sabiendo que la densidad de dicha solución
Masja [62]

Respuesta:

968 g Ca(OH)₂

Explicación:

Paso 1: Calcular la masa de solución

Tenemos 1500 mL de una solución cuya densidad es 1.17 g/mL, es decir, 1 mL de solución tiene una masa de 1.17 g.

1500 mL × 1.17 g/mL = 1.76 × 10³ g

Paso 2: Calcular la masa de hidróxido de calcio en 1.76 × 10³ g de solución

La solución tiene una concentración de 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, es decir, cada 100 gramos de solución hay 55 gramos de hidróxido de calcio.

1.76 × 10³ g Solución × 55 g Ca(OH)₂/100 g Solución = 968 g Ca(OH)₂

Electron configuration for Be2+
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Beryllium has an electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 in its natural state. When in an ion state of Be2+ it loses the electrons in a 2s shell and has a configuration of 1s2. This means that Be2+ has 2 electrons.

During which two minutes time period is the temperature of water changing faster?!
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

2-4 minutes

Explanation:

Fastest changing temperature means larger change in temperature when subtracting final temperature from initial temperature in a given time period (given time period is 2 minutes for all the options)

For 0-2 minutes, our final temperature was 40 (at 2 min) and initial temperature was  20 (at 0 min), thus temperature change was only 20 C.

For 2-4, our final temperature was 80 (at 4 min) and initial temperature was   40 (at 2 min) thus temperature change was 40 C.

For 4-6, our final temperature was 100 (at 6 min) and initial temperature was   80 (at 4 min) thus temperature change was 20 C.

We are not given temperature at 8 min so option D is invalid.

As we can clearly see that in a given 2 minute period, option B has the fastest change because it changed 40C when compared to other options that changed only 20C from starting temperature.

Hope that makes sense.
