Which of the following affects the speed of a seismic wave?

Chemistry
1 answer:
scoray [572]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

The speed of seismic waves is affected by the density of the underlying rock.

Seismic waves are elastic waves that transmits elastic energy from one point to the other.

These waves generally produced during an earthquake.

  • The higher the density of rock bodies, the faster the wave travels.
  • Rocks that are well packed with little to no void have a higher seismic velocity.
  • Where density of rock is low, the speed is also low

Answer and work for this problem
MArishka [77]
We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as 
     H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)

We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
     mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) * 
                           (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)                        
                        = 4.056 g H2

We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
     mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
                             (70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
                          = 142.4 g Cl2 

Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.
