The correct answer is - C. Hydrosphere; geosphere.
The hydrosphere is the sphere which contains all the waters on the planet Earth. The geosphere is the sphere that contains the solid rocky part of the Earth. When the water goes through the porous sediments and enters deeper into the ground, that means the we have an interaction of water and rocks. In other words, since the water is part of the hydrosphere, and the rocks are part of the geosphere, we have an interaction between the hydrosphere and the geosphere.
Answer:
Physical properties are controlled by the mineral's chemical composition and atomic structure, this combination is distinct in each mineral.
Explanation:
Hello,
Since the physical properties depend on the mineral's chemical composition and the atomic structure (molecular arrangement), we can distinguish different minerals by measuring out hardness, cleavage and other properties in order to analyze their behavior under several conditions and subsequently use them in a particular application.
Best regards.
Answer:
D. Exothermic.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, since the potential energy versus reaction progress diagrams are related to the energetic profile of a chemical reaction, we can set the initial point at the beginning of the reaction as the energy of the reactants and the final point as the energy of the products.
Next, since the change in the enthalpy of a reaction is quantified by subtracting products minus reactants, we can see that the products have less energy than the reactants and therefore ΔH for this reaction is negative, which matches with the definition of D. Exothermic reaction.
Regards!
It can be a compound or a single element. An element is a pure substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical or physical means. There are about 117 elements, but carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen are only a few that make up the largest portion of Earth.
I would say pure substances
