Write down your understanding of plate tectonics.

Chemistry
1 answer:
anygoal [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet.

Aluminium sulfate hydrate al2(so4)3.xh2o contains 13.63% al by mass. calculate x, that is, the number of water molecules associa
Advocard [28]
MAl₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O:
(mAl×2) + (mS×3) + (mO×12) + (mH₂O×x)
(27×2)+(32×3)+(16×12)+(x×18) = 342 + 18x [g]
mAl₂: 27×2 = 54 [g]

54g ---------- 13,63%
342+18x ---- 100%
0,1363(342+18x) = 54
46,6146 + 2,4534x = 54
2,4534x = 7,3854
x ≈ 3

>>> Al₂(SO₄)₃·3H₂O <<<<

How does concentration affect our daily lives in science?​
statuscvo [17]

1. <em>Increasing the concentration of one or more reactants will often increase the rate of reaction. This occurs because a higher concentration of a reactant will lead to more collisions of that reactant in a specific time period. </em>

<em>2. Physical state of the reactants and surface area.</em>

When the concentration of A in the reaction A ..... B was changed from 1.20 M to 0.60 M, the half-life increased from 2.0 min to
Reika [66]

Answer:

2

0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

Explanation:

Half-life

{t_{1/2}}A=2\ \text{min}

{t_{1/2}}B=4\ \text{min}

Concentration

{[A]_0}_A=1.2\ \text{M}

{[A]_0}_B=0.6\ \text{M}

We have the relation

t_{1/2}\propto \dfrac{1}{[A]_0^{n-1}}

So

\dfrac{{t_{1/2}}_A}{{t_{1/2}}_B}=\left(\dfrac{{[A]_0}_B}{{[A]_0}_A}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{4}=\left(\dfrac{0.6}{1.2}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}

Comparing the exponents we get

1=n-1\\\Rightarrow n=2

The order of the reaction is 2.

t_{1/2}=\dfrac{1}{k[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{t_{1/2}[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2\times 1.2^{2-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

The rate constant is 0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

Why is burning wood a chemical change?
Nitella [24]
There are 4 things that are evidence of a chemical change.
1)Change in color
2)Change in shape (gas being let out)
3)Change in temperature
4)Change in smell

Burning wood is a chemical change because it has a change in color, and shape.

If you burn 29.4 g of hydrogen and produce 263 g of water, how much oxygen reacted?
vovikov84 [41]

The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water is given as:

H_2 + O_2 \rightarrow H_2O

The balanced reaction is:

2H_2 + O_2 \rightarrow 2H_2O

According to the balanced reaction,

4 g of hydrogen (4\times 1) reacts with 32 g of oxygen (2\times 16).

So, oxygen reacted with 29.4 g of hydrogen is:

\frac{29.4\times 32}{4} = 235.2 g

Hence, the mass of oxygen that is reacted with 29.4 g of hydrogen is 235.2 g.
