Pepsi [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a richter scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake so in my own words i would say the richter scale measures the size of an earthquake and letting us kniw how big it will be to prepare for it.

steposvetlana [31]

Answer: Type of Chemical Reaction: For this reaction we have a combination reaction. Balancing Strategies: When we add zinc to hydrochloric acid we end up with zinc chloride, a salt, and hydrogen gas. This reaction is actually a good way to make hydrogen gas in the lab.

PLS AWNSER ASAP<br><br> Name a location where divergent boundaries occur.
Levart [38]

Answer:Divergent boundaries are typified in the oceanic lithosphere by the rifts of the oceanic ridge system, including the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise, and in the continental lithosphere by rift valleys such as the famous East African Great Rift Valley.

A gas diffuses 1/6 times faster than hydrogen gas (H2). What is the molar mass of the gas? 59.95 g/mol 66.54 g/mol 68.68 g/mol 7
taurus [48]

Solution us here,

let the rate of diffusion of H2(r1) be x and⁷ the rate of diffusion of gas(r2) be x+x/6=7x/6.

Molar mass of H2 (M1)=2 g

Molar mass of gas(M2)= ?

Now, from the Ghram's law of diffusion of gas,

\frac{r1}{r2}  =   \sqrt{ \frac{m2}{m1}  }   \\ or \:  \frac{x}{ \frac{7x}{6} }  =  \sqrt{ \frac{m2}{2} }  \\ or \:  \frac{6}{7}  =  \sqrt{ \frac{m2}{2} }  \\ squaring \: in \: both \: sides \\  \frac{36}{49}  = \frac{m2}{2}  \\ or m2 = 1 .469

here, it looks like I have done wrong.

But all of the answers in option are wrong.

Because, rate of diffusion of any gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its malor mass.

And in the question, gas has higher rate of diffusion than hrdrogen. So it should have molar mass less than hydrogen.

When bridges are built, special joints must be used because the material of the bridge shrinks, and without these joints, the ma
marysya [2.9K]

Expansion

Explanation:

Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.

Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.

  • The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
  • Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.
