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.

If a buffer solution is 0.190 m in a weak acid (ka = 8.2 × 10-5) and 0.590 m in its conjugate base, what is the ph?\
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
<span>You use the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation pH = pKa + log ([salt]/[acid]) pKa = -log (8.2*10^-5) = 4.081 pH = 4.081 + (0.590/0.190) pH = 4.081 + log 3.105 pH = 4.081 + 0.49206 pH = 4.573</span>

Which statements about the operation of an automated micropipettor are true? The volume dial has already been set, do not alter
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The correct statement is that the point of initial resistance is the level of depression that will fill the pipette with the desired volume of solution.

Explanation:

The pipette can be otherwise stored vertically or horizontally, this has nothing to do with the operation, and before the operation, the dial needs to be set. Also, the plastic pipette tip should not be ejected at all, thus, no new disposable plastic tip is required for each sample.

The correct statement is that the point of initial resistance is the level of depression that will fill the pipette with the desired volume of solution.

9. According to an "alternative theory", H2O is
Jlenok [28]

Answer:(4) ----accepts  a proton

Explanation:

H2O water can produce both hydrogen and   hydroxide ions

H2O --> H+ + OH-

According to the Bronsted-Lowry theory, it can be a proton donor and a proton acceptor.this means that It can donate a hydrogen ion to become its conjugate base, or  can accept a hydrogen ion to form its conjugate acid,

When , a water molecule, H2O accepts a proton it will act as a Brønsted-Lowry base especially when dissolved in a strong acidic medium. for eg

HCl + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq) + Cl−(aq)

Here, Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and ionizes completely in  water, since it is more acidic than water, the water will act as a base.
