Answer:

Law of cross-cutting relationships

Explanation:

This interpretation is based on the law of cross - cutting relationships.

This law states that "faults and fractures that cuts through a rock are younger than the rocks they cut through".

In a sequence of strata, the strata that are not cut through by these features are younger than the cross -cutting features.
The igneous intrusion is younger since it cuts through the rock layers.

What keeps some of the radiation from the Sun in the atmosphere?

Yanka [14]

The appropriate answer is b. greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane have the ability to trap infrared radiation or heat in the atmosphere. Without these gases the Earth would be thirty degrees cooler than it is today. Pollution today has caused more of these gases to enter the atmosphere and this is the main cause of contemporary global warming.
Ozone in the stratosphere actually blocks another form of radiation called ultraviolet radiation. Geothermal energy is derived from hot rocks inside the earth.

In tne equation below identify the bronsted lowry acid bronsted lowry base conjugate acid conjugate base

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Brønsted-Lowry acid: HNO₂

Brønsted-Lowry base: NH₃

Conjugate acid: NH₄⁺

Conjugate base: NO₂⁻

Explanation:

The equation is:

$HNO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow NH4^+(aq) + NO2^-(aq)$

Brønsted-Lowry acids are H⁺ donors.

Brønsted-Lowry bases are H⁺ acceptors.

Thus, on the left side, HNO₂ is the acid and NH₃ is the base.

The conjugate acids and conjugate bases are on the right side of the equation.

The conjugate acid is the spieces that is formed after a base accepts the proton; thus it is NH₄⁺. A conjugate acid contains one more H atom and one more + charge than the base that formed it.

The conjugate base is the species that is formed after the acid donates its proton; thus, NO₂⁻ is the conjugate base. A conjugate base contains one less H atom and one more - charge than the acid that formed it.

Summarizing:

Brønsted-Lowry acid: HNO₂

Brønsted-Lowry base: NH₃

Conjugate acid: NH₄⁺

Conjugate base: NO₂⁻
