How does the movement of plate boundaries effect the earth .

The movement of Earth's tectonic plates shape the planet's surface. Plate boundaries are important because they are often associated with earthquakes and volcanoes. When Earth's tectonic plates grind past one another, enormous amounts of energy can be released in the form of earthquakes.

How many grams of aluminum are required to react with 35 mL of 2.0 M hydrochloric acid, HCl?__ HCl + __ Al --> __ AlCl3 + __

kiruha [24]

Answer:

0.6258 g

Explanation:

To determine the number grams of aluminum in the above reaction;

determine the number of moles of HCl
determine the mole ratio,
use the mole ratio to calculate the number of moles of aluminum.
use RFM of Aluminum to determine the grams required.

Moles of HCl

35 mL of 2.0 M HCl

2 moles of HCl is contained in 1000 mL

x moles of HCl is contained in 35 mL

$x \: mol \: = \: \frac{2 \: \times \: 35}{1000} \\ = 0.07 \: moles \:$

We have 0.07 moles of HCl.

Mole ratio

Balanced equation

6HCl(aq) + 2Al(s) --> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)

Hence mole ratio = 6 : 2 (HCl : Al

but moles of HCl is 0.07, therefore the moles of Al;

$= \frac{2}{6} \times 0.07 \\ \: = 0.0233333 \: moles$

Therefore we have 0.0233333 moles of aluminum.

Grams of Aluminum

We use the formula;

$grams \: = moles \: \times \: rfm$

The RFM (Relative formula mass) of aluminum is 26.982g/mol.

Substitute values into the formula;

$= 0.0233333 \: moles \: \times \: 26.982 \: \frac{g}{mol} \\ = 0.625799 \: grams$

The number of grams of aluminum required to react with HCl is 0.6258 g.

Espresso Coffee House is designing a coffee mug that keeps liquids hot. The research department tested several different materia

raketka [301]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the result of the described experiment would have better determined the type of scientific explanation to profer. However, the type of material that will preserve the relative hotness or temperature of the hot coffee for the longest time will be a material than can resist heat transfer. These materials tend to keep hot substances hot by not allowing the heat of the coffee to be conducted or pass through it. These materials are mostly insulators or made by placing an insulator between two heat conductors.

Generally, heat is usually transferred from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration, hence when the heat is denied of this transfer, the heat will remain trapped in the "heat-donor" substance (in this case the hot coffee). Thus, the material chosen (A, B or C) will be the material that resists heat transfer the most based on the explanation above.

A 1.42-g sample of a pure compound with formula m2so4 was dissolved in water and treated with an ex- cess of aqueous calcium chl

solong [7]

The reaction between $m_{2}SO_{4}$ with calcium chloride can be shown as- $m_{2}SO_{4}$ + $CaCl_{2}$ → $CaSO_{4}$ ↓+2mCl. The molecular weight of $CaSO_{4}$ is 136.14g. The weight of sulfate ion is 96.06g. The molecular weight of $m_{2}SO_{4}$ = (2×m + 96.06). From the reaction we can see that 1 mole of calcium chloride reacts with 1 moles $m_{2}SO_{4}$ to produce 1 mole of calcium sulfate. Now 1.36g of calcium sulfate is equivalent to 1.36/136.14=9.989× $10^{-3}$ moles of calcium sulfate.

Thus, 9.989× $10^{-3}$ moles of $m_{2}SO_{4}$ reacts in this reaction.

Let assume the atomic mass of m is x thus the molecular weight of $m_{2}SO_{4}$ is 2x+96.

So we may write 9.989× $10^{-3}$ × (2x+96) =1.42

Or, 2x + 96 = 142.146

Or, 2x = 46.146

Or, x = 23.073

Thus the atomic mass of m is 23.073. The atom (m) is sodium (Na).
