An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault. ... When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth's crust and cause the shaking that we feel. In California there are two plates - the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.

What is the formula for the compound by calcium ions and chloride ions?
dimaraw [331]
To find the ratio of the the combination for the ion, write the charge of the cation as the subscript for the anion, and the charge of the anion as the subscript of the cation. This will make the charges effectively cancel and you will be left with a neutral ionic compound. Remember, that an ionic compound is made up of a metal and a nonmetal.
For Ca2+ and Cl-, you will get the neutral compound to be CaCl₂.

HC]A laboratory experiment requires 2.0 L of a 1.5 M solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl), but the only available HCl is a 12.0 M
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The amount of the solute is constant during dilution. So the mole number of HCl is 2*1.5=3 mole. The volume of HCl stock is 3/12=0.25 L. So using 0.25 L stock solution and dilute to 2.0 L.

g The reaction; 4 Ag(s) + O2(g) ----> 2 Ag2O(s), is exothermic. Which statement about the reaction is correct? (A) It is spon
melomori [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. It is spontaneous only at low temperatures.

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure.

The spontaneity of a reaction is given by the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

where:

ΔH: enthalpy variation

T: absolute temperature

ΔS: entropy variation

As the reaction is exothermic, ΔH<0

As the reaction order increases (the reagents are solid and gas and their product is solid), ΔS<0

Therefore, the reaction will be spontaneous when ΔG is negative.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

That is, the entropy term must be smaller than the enthalpy term.

Hence, the reaction will be spontaneous only at low temperatures.
