<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.

german

The correct option is: CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O.

In writing chemical equations, the reactants are usually written to the left of the equation of the reaction while the products are written to the right of the reaction. An arrow pointing in the right direction shows the direction of the reaction. In the question given above, methane and oxygen are the reactants while carbon dioxide and water are the products. The options that states the chemical reaction correctly is option 1.

Calculate the pH of a solution that is 0.235M benzoic acid and 0.130M sodium benzoate, a salt whose anion is the conjugate base
lesantik [10]

Hello!

We have the following data:

ps: we apply Ka in benzoic acid to the solution.

[acid] = 0.235 M (mol/L)

[salt] = 0.130 M (mol/L)

pKa (acetic acid buffer) =?

pH of a buffer =?

Let us first find pKa of benzoic acid, knowing that Ka (benzoic acid) = 6.20*10^{-5}

So:

pKa = - log\:(Ka)

pKa = - log\:(6.20*10^{-5})

pKa = 5 - log\:6.20

pKa = 5 - 0.79

\boxed{pKa = 4.21}

Now, using the abovementioned data for the pH formula of a buffer solution or (Henderson-Hasselbalch equation), we have:

pH = pKa + log\:\dfrac{[salt]}{[acid]}

pH = 4.21 + log\:\dfrac{0.130}{0.235}

pH = 4.21 + log\:0.55

pH = 4.21 + (-0.26)

pH = 4.21 - 0.26

\boxed{\boxed{pH = 3.95}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Note:. The pH <7, then we have an acidic solution.

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)
