<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.

Fed [463]

Answer:

T2 = 94.6 C

Explanation:

Use Clausius-Clayperyon equation.

ln P1/P2 = ∆Hvap/R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where R = 8.314 J/mol-K and T is in degrees K

P1 = 760 mmHg

P2 = 630 mmHg  

T1 = 373 K

T2 = ?

∆Hvap = 40.7 kJ/mole

R = 0.008314 kJ/mole-K (NOTE: change R to units of kJ)

Plug in and solve for T2

ln 760 mmHg/630 mmHg = 40.7 kJ/mole (1/T2 - 1/373K)

T2 = 367.74 K = 94.6 C

Humans breathe about 500 mL of air per breath and take about 12 breaths per minute during normal activities. If a person is expo
sasho [114]

Answer:

mass of benzene in the lungs = 28.8 g of benzene

Explanation:

Volume of air breathed per hour = 500 mL * 12 * 60 = 360000 ml = 360 Litres of air

In 8 hours, volume of breathed air = 360 L * 8 = 2880 Litres of air

Concentration of benzene in air = 10 ppm

Note:  1 ppm = 1 mg per liter (mg/L)

10 ppm = 10 mg/L

Therefore, mass of benzene in the lungs in an 8-hour shift = 10 mg/L * 2880 L

mass of benzene in the lungs = 28800 mg

Converting to grams = 28800/1000

mass of benzene in the lungs = 28.8 g of benzene
