What is the main reason that cause the subduction process?

Chemistry

docker41 [41]3 years ago
3 0

Subduction occurs when two plates collide at a convergent boundary, and one plate is driven beneath the other, back into the Earth’s interior. Not all convergence leads to subduction. Continental rocks are too buoyant to be forced downward, so when continents collide, they crumple but stay at the surface. Only oceanic plates, which are topped with basalt, are dense enough to sink into the mantle. As a result, only oceanic plates are subducted.

maks197457 [2]

Molecules with a plane of symmetry between the chiral centers are achiral and meso. From the given molecules (Picture attached) only (A) compound 1 is meso.

When compounds possess a plane of symmetry between the chiral centers they are called achiral or meso compounds. Among the given compounds (A) compound 1 have a plane of symmetry. So we can say compound one is a meso or achiral compound. Compounds two, three, and four have no plane of symmetry, as you can see in the structures attached. So all other compounds (compound 2, compound 3, and compound 4) except compound one are not meso or achiral.

You can also learn about meso compounds from the following question:

A laboratory experiment requires 4.8 l of a 2.5 m solution of sulfuric acid (h2so4), but the only available h2so4 is a 6.0 m sto
Airida [17]
To determine the amount of 6.0 M H2SO4 needed for the preparation, equate the number of moles of the 6.0 M and 2.5 M H2SO4 solution. This is done as follows
 
                                             M1 x V1 = M2 x V2

Substituting the known variables,
 
                                             (6.0 M) x V1 = (2.5 M) x (4.8 L)

Solving for V1 gives an answer of V1 = 2 L. Thus, to prepare the needed solution, dilute 2 L of 6.0 M H2SO4 solution with water until the volume reach 4.8 L.
