Write down your understanding of plate tectonics.

Chemistry
1 answer:
anygoal [31]3 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.

How is the atomic number related to core electrons?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Core electrons are the electrons in an atom that are not valence electrons and therefore do not participate in bonding. The number of valence electrons of an element can be determined by the periodic table group of the element

Define and describe each of the following forms of energy and then classify each as either: potential energy, kinetic energy, or
TiliK225 [7]

Potential energy:   It is an energy stored in an object due to its position.

Chemical energy: It is an energy stored in a bonds of a chemical compound and this energy is released during the reaction in the form of heat.

Elastic energy: It is a stored potential energy in an elastic object when subjected to any deformation or change in shape.

Gravitational energy : It is an energy possessed by an object due its position in a gravitational field.

Electric energy: Energy due to flow of charged particles. It is a type of a stored potential energy due to relative position of charged particle .

Nuclear energy  : it is an energy stored in a nucleus of an atom. This energy kept the particles present inside the nucleus binded together.

Static electricity: It is  an electricity which arises due to presence of imbalance in charge within or on the surface of the material.

Transfer of some quantity of energy:

Heat energy: Transfer or flow of energy from one object to another in form of heat. This transfer is due to difference in temperature of two objects.

Electromagnetic energy:  It is an form of energy emitted by the magnetic field and electric field vibrating perpendicular to each other while propagation of the electromagnetic wave. Energy transfer takes place in from of electromagnetic wave.

Sound energy  ; it is the energy produced by the vibration of sound waves. the energy transferred from one substance to another in form of sound wave.

Kinetic energy: Its an energy possessed by an object due its motion.

Movement of mass  : It is an energy which leads to movement of the mass of an object.

Thermal work : It is an energy posses by the body due to movement of the particles.

What is the total ionic equation for the following reaction?
schepotkina [342]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An equation in which electrolytes are represented in the form of ions is known as an ionic equation.

Strong electrolytes easily dissociate into their corresponding ions. Hence, they form ionic equation.

H_{2}CrO_{4} is a strong acid and Ba(OH)_{2} is a strong bases, therefore, both of them will dissociate into ions.

Thus, total ionic equation will be as follows.

2H^{+} + CrO_{4}^{-} + Ba^{2+} + 2OH^{-} \rightarrow Ba^{2+} + CrO_{4}^{-} + 2H_{2}O
