Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The heat plays the most important role that forms the convection current in the mantle.

According to the universally accepted plate tectonic theory, The earth's crust is comprised of numerous plates, both large and small. These plates are of 2 types, commonly termed as the continental and oceanic plate.

These plates are constantly in motion because of the formation of the convection current in the mantle. This current forms due to the heat supplied by the interior of the earth.

This heat allows the convection current to form in the mantle, forcing the plates to move over the less dense, viscous layer of asthenosphere.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Consider the following mechanism: O3 => O2 + O NO + O => NO2 What is the role of O2? A. intermediate B. catalyst C. reacta
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Step 1: O_3\rightarrow O_2+O

Step 2: NO+O\rightarrow NO_2

Overall reaction can be determined  by adding all the reactions of mechanism:

O_3+NO\rightarrow O_2+NO_2

Reactants in an overall reaction = O_3\& NO

Products in an overall reaction = O_2\& NO_2

According to question , the role of oxygen gas is product.

50.0 g of NaNO3 are dissolved into enough water to make 250 mL of solution. What is the molarity of this solution?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

2.35 M

Explanation:

Molarity is mol/L of solution. We have to convert the g to mol and the mL to L. G to mol uses the molar mass of the compound. The molar mass of NaNO₃ is 85.00g/mol.

50.0gNaNO3*\frac{1molNaNO3}{85.00gNaNO3} = 0.588molNaNO3

Then you have to convert mL to L.

250mL*\frac{1L}{1000mL} = 0.250L

Now divide the mol by the L.

\frac{0.588mol NaNO3}{0.250L} = 2.352 M

Round to the smallest number of significant figures = 2.35M

A ground state hydrogen atom absorbs a photon of light having a wavelength of 92.05 nm. It then gives off a photon having a wave
vodka [1.7K]
Absorbed photon energy
Ea = hc/λ.. (Planck's equation)
Ea = hc / 92.05^-9m 

<span>Energy emitted
Ee = hc/ 1736^-9m </span>

Energy retained ..
∆E = Ea - Ee = hc(1/92.05<span>^-9 - 1/1736^-9) </span>
<span>∆E = (6.625^-34)(3.0^8) (1.028^7)
∆E = 2.04^-18 J </span>

<span>Converting J to eV (1.60^-19 J/eV)
 ∆E = 2.04^-18 / 1.60^-19
∆E = 12.70 eV </span>

<span>Ground state (n=1) energy for Hydrogen = - 13.60eV </span>

<span>New energy state = (-13.60 + 12.70)eV = -0.85 eV </span>

<span>Energy states for Hydrogen
En = - (13.60 / n²) </span>

n² = -13.60 / -0.85 = 16
