Describe the process of convection and how it contributes to seafloor spreading

Answer:

Seafloor spreading and other tectonic activity processes are the result of mantle convection. ... Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense.

Answer:

Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor. Eventually, the crust cracks.

Calcium chromate, cacro4, has a ksp of 7.1×10−4. what happens when calcium and chromate solutions are mixed to give 0.0200 m ca2

Serjik [45]

The solubility equilibrium of $CaCrO_{4}$ :

[tex] CaCrO_{4}(aq)<===>Ca^{2+}(aq) + CrO_{4}^{2-}(aq)\\
Q_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][CrO_{4}^{2-}]\\
= (0.0200 M)(0.0300 M) \\
= 0.0006

Ksp (0.00071) > Qsp (0.0006). So, <u>no precipitate would form</u>.

What volume will 145 g of butane occupy at 745 torr and 35 ∘c?

Margaret [11]

First let us compute for the number of moles of butane (molar mass = 58.12 g/mol)

number of moles = 145 g / (58.12 g/mol) = 2.49 mol

<span>We use the ideal gas equation to calculate the volume:</span>

<span> V = n R T / P</span>

V = 2.49 mol * 62.36367 L torr / mol K * 308.15 K / 745 torr

<span>V = 64.35 L</span>
