Earthquakes are more common in some parts of the world than others, because some places, like California, sit on top of the meeting point, or fault, of two plates. ... When those plates scrape against each other and cause an earthquake, the results can be deadly and devastating. And then Tsunamis occur most often in the Pacific Ocean and Indonesia because the Pacific Rim bordering the Ocean has a large number of active submarine earthquake zones. However, tsunamis have also occurred recently in the Mediterranean Sea region and are expected in the Caribbean Sea as well.

How much heat is required to change 25.0 g of water from solid to liquid at 0 oC? Water: ΔHfus = 334 J/g; ΔHvap= 2260J/g
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The heat required to change 25.0 g of water from solid ice to liquid water at 0°C  is 8350 J

Explanation:

The parameters given are

The temperature of the solid water = 0°C

The heat of fusion,   = 334 J/g

The heat of vaporization, = 2260 J/g

Mass of the solid water = 25.0 g

We note that the heat required to change a solid to a liquid is the heat of fusion, from which we have the formula for heat fusion is given as follows;

ΔH =  m ×

Therefore, we have;

ΔH =  25 g × 334 J/g = 8350 J

Which gives the heat required to change 25.0 g of water from solid ice to liquid water at 0°C  as 8350 J.

The correct answer about geologic time scale is that, it presents the correct sequence of events in the history of the earth.

Geologic Time scale is being recorded in the history of geologics. It is being broken into smaller and larger subdivisions and this helps us to know how events fit together.

In order to study the major events which are found in geologic history we should study the rock strata which is found around the world.
