Which of the following is an example of chemical weathering?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nonamiya [84]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:O B. Weak acid breaks down minerals by reacting with them.

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is the process whereby rain water which sometimes can be acidic ( As rain falls down it reacts with CO2 in the atmosphere and form acid rain), This  reacts  with the minerals contained in rocks, dissolves and degrades  them further to form entire  new minerals.

An example of a rock that is greatly affected by overexposure of  acid rain is  limestone containing calcite  which easily degrades by acid rain.

Other processes whereby Chemical weathering can occur are through reaction with water and oxygen.

How many moles in 1.00g of salicylic acid?
salantis [7]

Answer:-  0.00724 moles.

Solution:- Grams of salicylic acid are given and it asks to calculate the moles.

For the moles, we divide the grams by the molar mass.

Formula of salicylic acid is C_7H_6O_3

Molar mass = 7(12.01)+6(1.01)+3(16.00)

= 84.07+6.06+48.00

= 138.13 gram per mol

We could make the dimensional analysis set up for showing unit cancellation and have the moles.

1.00g(\frac{1mol}{138.13g})

= 0.00724 moles

So, there will be 0.00724 moles of salicylic acid in it's 1.00 gram.

Use Lewis diagrams to show how electrons are shared to form covalent bonds in compounds wit the following atoms. Write the formu
bixtya [17]
The Lewis structure/diagram for CH2O (aka Formaldehyde) can be written in either of the following ways shown in the picture.
The dots represent electrons in the valence shell of the atom (the outermost shell). The green dots are electrons that belong to the Oxygen atom, the blue belong to the Carbon atom, and the pink belong to the Hydrogen atoms.
Covalent bonds are bonds between atoms where atoms share electrons with each other. Atoms bond because they obey the octet rule ( the rule states that most atoms of main-group elements tend to want 8 electrons in their valence shells). 
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, Carbon has 4, and Hydrogen has 1. H does not follow the octet rule, but C and O do, so the atoms are arranged in this way so that the O and C atoms have a full octet of electrons in their valence.

What physical and chemical properties should braces (used to straighten teeth possess in order to attain its desired goal to str
Nitella [24]

Answer: Braces are used by the people to correct the alignment and position of tooth or teeth in the jaw.

Explanation:

The teeth braces must have strong tensile strength and must create a constant pressure on the teeth so as to allow the straightening of the teeth.

The strong force of attraction between the molecules of the braces material that can be steel, nickel, molybdenum, copper, titanium. This makes the bracing material rigid on the teeth.
