What is the main reason that cause the subduction process?

Chemistry
1 answer:
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.

A Choose... convex concave  lens is used to converge light.
asambeis [7]
Answer: A convex lens is used to converge ligtht.

Explanation:

A concave lens is a lens that is thicker on the ends than in the middle. As consequence of this, a concave lens diverges (separate) the rays of light. A concave lens is also called diverging lens.

A convex lens is is thicker in the middle than on the ends. As consequence of this, a convex lense converge the parallel rays that pass through it. A convex lens is also called converging lens.

A reaction was suppose to produce 20 L of gas. Only 12 litters of gas were produced in the lab. What is the percent yield for th
pogonyaev

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 60 \%}}

Explanation:

Percent yield is a ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield. It is found using this formula:

\% \ yield= \frac {actual \ yield}{theoretical \  yield} *100

The actual yield is 12 liters, because that was actually produced in the lab.

The theoretical yield is 20 liters, because that was the expected yield.

\% \ yield= \frac {12 \ L}{20\ L} *100

\% \ yield= 0.6*100

\% \ yield= 60

For this reaction, the percent yield is 60%.
