<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is 'gravity acting on the edges of plates and convection in the mantle'.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The two processes which the scientists think that move the Earth's lithosphere plates are:

1) gravity acting on the edges of the plates; and

2) convection in the mantle

The gravitational body force pulling the slab downwards is balanced by the resistive forces acting on the plate while mantle convection is the main way through which the heat from Earth's interior is transferred to its surface.

How much heat (in Joules) is needed to raise the temperature of 257g of ethanol (cethanol=2.4 J/g°C) by 49.1°C?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Q = 30284.88 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ethanol = 257 g

Cp = 2.4 j/g.°C

Chnage in temperature = ΔT = 49.1°C

Heat required = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

Q = 257 g× 2.4 j/g.°C × 49.1 °C

Q = 30284.88 j

Which of the following best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water?
Nadusha1986 [10]

The statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte, which is option C.

<h3>What is an ionic compound?</h3>

Ionic compound is any compound is a chemical compound composed of ions (charged atoms) held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding.

Ionic compounds are electrolytes i.e. a substance when, in solution or when molten, ionizes and conducts electricity.

For example; sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound breaks down into sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ion (Cl-).

Therefore, the statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte.

You weigh a 24K gold chain and find that it weighs 400 grams. Determine home many moles of gold atoms you have
makkiz [27]

Answer:

                     2.03 moles of Gold

Explanation:

                     Gold is one of the most precious metal metal used in many applications and mainly as a jewellery. In terms of purity it is categorized in Karats. 24 Karat is considered the purest Gold (i.e. 100 % Gold) while other Karats (14, 18, 22 e.t.c) are alloys with other metals and gyms.

Data Given:

                 Mass of Gold  =  400 g

                 A.Mass of Gold  =  196.97 g.mol⁻¹

Calculate Moles of Gold as,

                              Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Putting values,

                              Moles  =  400 g ÷ 196.97 g.mol⁻¹

                              Moles  =  2.03 moles of Gold
