Answer:

Because the location of many of the earth's natural resources like fertile soils, ore deposits, fossil fuels, and geothermal energy can be explained by the theory of plate tectonics.

At divergent boundaries, plates separate, forming a narrow rift valley. Here, geysers spurt super-heated water, and magma, or molten rock, rises from the mantle and solidifies into basalt, forming new crust. Thus, at divergent boundaries, oceanic crust is created.

Consider the balanced equation below. 4NH3 + 3O2 --> 2N2 + 6H2O What is the mole ratio of NH3 to N2?
AURORKA [14]
The balanced equation given is:
4NH3 + 3O2 .....> 2N2 + 6H2O

From this equation, we can note that 4 moles of NH3 are required to produce 2 moles of N2.

Therefore, the mole ratio of NH3 to N2 is 4:2 which can be simplified into 2:1

This is the chemical formula for talc Mg3(Si2O5)2(OH)2(the main ingredient in talcum powder):
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

0.022 mol O

Explanation:

Mg3(Si2O5)2(OH)2

We can see that 1 mol of this substance has 3 mol of Mg.

Oxygen altogether  is 5*2 (from (Si2O5)2) + 2(from(OH)2) = 10 +2 = 12

So, 1 mol of this substance has 12 mol oxygen.

So,  1 mol of this substance contains 3 mol Mg and  12 mol O, or

ratio Mg : O = 3 : 12 = 1 : 4

1 mol Mg ----- 4 mol O

0.055 mol Mg ---x mol O

x = 0.055*4/1 = 0.220 mol O
