Describe the three main types of plate boundary interactions:

Chemistry
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In the explanation

Explanation:

Divergent: When two plates are diverging from each other, meaning that the two plates are moving away from each other. Events that may occur include ridges or rifts.

Convergent: When two plates are moving towards each other.

If a continental plate and an oceanic plate are converging, the oceanic plate would slide underneath the continental plate since it is thinner. This would result in subduction, which means that part of the oceanic plate would hang underneath the continental plate, where magma can melt the hanging part.

If two continental plates are converging, the crash would result in mountains or volcanic activity. Magma could rise and rush from the crack. There would be a bump in these tectonic plates.

Transform: When two plates are sliding past each other. Earthquakes can occur when the plates are sliding. When an oceanic plate is involved, the movement of the plates could cause a tsunami as well. The water above the transform fault could rise, and grow bigger and bigger. The 2011 Japan Tsunami is a good example of this.

A black hole can be considered a star that has

The first option, collapsed in on itself. The star's core mass becomes so dense that the resulting gravity implodes the star. Interesting enough, the third option is kindof true too...some large and tenacious black holes that absorb other stars will form incredibly bright accretion disks around their perimeter before filling absorbing the star.

Study the Lewis dot diagram for nitrogen. Explain what is correct and what is incorrect about the diagram. Use details to suppor
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The Lewis dot diagram is supposed to have dots on each side. What's incorrect is that there isn't a dot on the bottom, only the left and right side and the top. What's correct about this is that there are 5 outer valence electrons, and they correctly put 5 dots, even though they're in the wrong place.

How many kilograms of chlorine are in 21 kg of CF2Cl2
Alik [6]

21 kg x [(3 x 35.45)/(12.01 + 19.00 + (3 x 35.45))] =  

21 kg x (106.35/137.36) = 16.3 kg of chlorine  

You just multiply the weight of the material by the fraction of chlorine (by weight). The others are done the same way
