Why is the age of the ocean crust used as evidence for plate tectonics?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Allushta [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The great age of continental rocks results from their inability to be subducted. ... We also know that the increase in age of ocean crust away from ocean basins results from creation of new sea floor at the MORs, with destruction of older sea floor at ocean trenches, which are often located near continental margins.

How is stoichiometry used to calculate amount of product from amount of reactant?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

D. The coefficients give the ratio of mole reactant to moles product.

Explanation:

In stoichiometric calculations, the amount of product formed from reactants can be determined.

  • Using this approach, the number of moles of reactants and products on both sides of the expression must be balanced.
  • As a rule of thumb, the coefficients give the ratio of moles of reactants to moles of products.
  • This is very useful in a number of calculations using the stoichiometric approach.

You have a 150mL sample of an aqueous solution at 25C. It contains 15.2mg of an unknown nonelectrolyte compound. If the solution
Serga [27]

The molar mass of the compound:

If the solution has an osmotic pressure of 8.44 torr, then the molar mass of the unknown non-electrolyte is 223.14 g.

What is osmosis?

  • Osmosis is defined as the flow of solvent molecules through semi-permeable membrane.
  • Osmotic pressure is the pressure applied to stop the flow of solvent molecules.
  • It is a colligative property that means osmotic pressure depends on the number of solute particles .

Therefore,

πV=inRT  ( for electrolytes)

Where,   π= Osmotic pressure

i = Van 't Hoff factor

n= moles

R= Gaseous constant = 62.363577 L torr mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T= Temperature

V= Volume of solution

Given:

T= 298K

V= 150 mL= 0.150 L

Given mass of unknown electrolyte= 15.2 mg = 15.2 x  10^{-3} g

Osmotic pressure= 8.44 torr

Molar mass= ?

For non-electrolytes:

πV = n RT

πV=\frac{m}{M}RT

Calculations:

Putting the given values in the formula:

8.44 x 0.150 =15.2 x 10^{-3}/ M x 62.36 x 298

1.266 = 282.5/M

M = 282.5/1.266

M = 223.14 g

Therefore,

The molar mass of the unknown non-electrolyte is 223.14g.

How has the farming industry been affected by the use of fossil fuels?
irina [24]

Fossil fuels have increased the amount of crops harvested.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels have greatly increased the amount of crops affected in the farming industry. Farm mechanization is the use of machinery for farm works.

  • The bulk of machinery used on the farm are powered using fossil fuels obtained from organic matter of plants and animals.
  • The internal combustion engines of farm machines is fueled using crude oil products.
  • Tractors, harvesters, sprayers e.t.c used fossil fuels for their operations.

Which of the radioactive emissions has the highest energy
hodyreva [135]
The correct answer is the gamma ray. It has the most penetration power and will pass through a number of things. Also, a gamma ray has shorter wavelength therefore higher energy from the equation, Energy = hc/wavelength.
