“The Earth’s lithosphere is thinner than its asthenosphere”, the statement correctly compares the thicknesses of Earth’s layers
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The outermost parts of the Earth composed of crust and a part of the upper mantle is termed as lithosphere. And asthenosphere is positioned below lithosphere. The bottom layer of lithosphere has the parts of the upper crust.
So the highly viscous and ductile region in the remaining part of the upper crust forms the asthenosphere below the lithosphere. The upper crust in the lithosphere region contain elastic properties while the upper crust in the asthenosphere is ductile in nature. Thus the statement that lithosphere is thinner than asthenosphere is true as it is located at the surface.

Explanation:
Tyndall effect refers to the scattering of light in a solution. Tyndall effect occurs when the size of particles in the solution exceeds 1 nm in diameter. Such solutions are actually called false solutions.
In tincture of iodine, the size of particles in solution is less than 1 nm in diameter hence the solution does not exhibit Tyndall effect. Hence, tincture of iodine is a true solution.
Therefore, if the size of particles in solution exceeded 1nm in diameter, Tyndall effect is observed.
Answer:
474.64mmHg
Explanation:
From the question given, we obtained the following:
V1 = 10L
P1 = 655mmHg
V2 = 13.8L
P2 =?
P1V1 = P2V2
10 x 655 = P2 x 13.8
Divide both side by the coefficient P2 i.e 13.8
P2 = (10 x 655) / 13.8
P2 = 474.64mmHg
Therefore, the new pressure will be 474.64mmHg
Answer:
C₁₁H₁₂NO₄
Explanation:
In order to determine the empirical formula of doxycycline, we need to follow a series of steps.
Step 1: Determine the centesimal composition
C: 59.5 mg/100 mg × 100% = 59.5%
H: 5.40 mg/100 mg × 100% = 5.40%
N: 6.30 mg/100 mg × 100% = 6.30%
O: 28.8 mg/100 mg × 100% = 28.8%
Step 2: Divide each percentage by the atomic mass of the element
C: 59.5 /12.0 = 4.96
H: 5.40/1.00 = 5.40
N: 6.30/14.0 = 0.450
O: 28.8/16.0 = 1.80
Step 3: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one
C: 4.96/0.450 = 11
H: 5.40/0.450 = 12
N: 0.450/0.450 = 1
O: 1.80/0.450 = 4
The empirical formula of doxycycline is C₁₁H₁₂NO₄
