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

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.

Compute the value of the molar heat capacity at constant volume, CVCV, for CO2CO2 on the assumption that there is no vibrational

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molar heat capacity at constant volume Cv of a gas = n x .5 R where n is degree of freedom of the gas molecules

CO₂ is a linear molecule , so number of degree of freedom = 3 + 2 = 5

3 is translational and 2 is rotational degree of freedom . There is no vibrational degree of freedom given .

So Cv = 5 / 2 R

= 2.5 R .

How much heat will be given off when 1500 g of water cools down by 20 C? please help and explain:)))

docker41 [41]

Answer:

126000J

Explanation:

From the question given, we obtained the following information:

M = 1500g

C = 4.2J/g°C

ΔT = 20°C

Q =?

Q= MCΔT

Q = 1500 x 4.2 x 20 =

Q = 126000J

Estimate the ligand fi eld splitting for (a) [CrCl6]3 (max 740 nm), (b) [Cr(NH3)6]3 (max 460 nm), and (c) [Cr(OH2)6]3 (max 575 n

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

NH3>H2O>Cl-

Explanation:

The given wavelengths of maximum absorption for each complex can be used to estimate the magnitude of field splitting of the respective ligands as shown in the image attached. The field splitting is reported in the unit kilojoule per mole (KJmol-1).

It can be seen from the calculation in the image attached that ammonia shows the highest crystal field splitting followed by water and lastly the chloride anion. This corresponds to the respective positions of these species in the spectrochemical series. Water and the chloride ion are weak field ligands.
