How can acids cause chemical weathering

Chemistry
1 answer:
scoray [572]3 years ago
7 0
Acid rain slowly dissolves rocks due to chemical reactions between the acid and the minerals in the rock. Differential Weathering: Softer, less resistant rocks wear away at a faster rate than more weather resistant rocks. More exposure to acid rain results in more rapid weathering.

Which of the following statements related to S N1 reactions is not true? - The heterolysis of a bond between atoms which do not
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons

Explanation:

A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.

A phase is a part of a system with what type of composition?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

<u>uniform composition.</u>

Explanation:

A phase is a part of a system with uniform composition.

  • In physics and chemistry , a phase in a physically distinctive form of matter , such as solid , liquid , gas or plasma.
  • A phase matter is characterised by having relatively uniform chemical and physical properities . Phases are different from states of matter.
  • The states of matter (e.g ., solid , liquid , gas ) are phases but matter can exist in different phases and yet be in the same type of matter. For example , liquid mixtures can exist in multiple phases such as oily and aqueous phase.
  • some different types of phases are : solid, liquid,gas , plasma etc.
  • The term phase can also sometime mean describe equilibrium in phase diagram

The formula of nitrobenzene is c6h5no2. the molecular weight of this compound is __________ amu.
mafiozo [28]

The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the sum of the molar weights of each component.

 

The molar masses of the elements are:

C = 12 amu

H = 1 amu

N = 14 amu

O = 16 amu

where 1 amu = 1 g / mol

 

Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the total molecular weight is:

molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) + 2 (16 amu)

molecular weight = 123 amu

 

Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.

What effect does a decrease in temperature have on the overall rate of a chemical reaction??
san4es73 [151]

Change in temperature affects the rate of reaction since it causes a change in the number of collisions per unit time.  These collisions cause the breaking of bonds and formation of new ones  giving out new products. An increase in temperature increases the rate of collisions hence increasing the rate of reaction while a decrease in temperature leads to a decrease in the rate of reaction due to the decreased number of collisions per unit time. thus the correct choice for blank A is: B. the number of collisions between molecules and for blank B: decrease.
