Which type of weathering helped to form barrier islands

Chemistry
1 answer:
Grace [21]3 years ago
7 0

Barrier islands typically have sand in the beach zone and dune field, and mud in the back-barrier. Overwash deposits sand in the back-barrier.

Barrier islands form in three ways. They can form from spits, from drowned dune ridges or from sand bars. Longshore drift is the movement of sand parallel to the shore caused by the angle of the waves breaking on the beach. ... When a storm such as a hurricane digs an inlet through the spit a barrier island is formed.

In a particular experiment, 2.50-g samples of each reagent are reacted. The theoretical yield of lithium nitride is ________ g.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

4.18 g

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Given: For Li

Given mass = 2.50 g

Molar mass of Li  = 6.94 g/mol

<u>Moles of Li  = 2.50 g / 6.94 g/mol = 0.3602 moles</u>

Given: For N_2

Given mass = 2.50 g

Molar mass of N_2 = 28.02 g/mol

<u>Moles of N_2 = 2.50 g / 28.02 g/mol = 0.08924 moles</u>

According to the given reaction:

6Li+N_2\rightarrow 2Li_3N

6 moles of Li react with 1 mole of N_2

1 mole of Li react with 1/6 mole of N_2

0.3602 mole of Li react with \frac {1}{6}\times 0.3602 mole of N_2

Moles of N_2 that will react = 0.06 moles

Available moles of N_2 = 0.08924 moles

N_2 is in large excess. (0.08924 > 0.06)

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus,

Li is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

6 moles of Li gives 2 mole of Li_3N

1 mole of Li gives 2/6 mole of Li_3N

0.3602 mole of Li react with \frac {2}{6}\times 0.3602 mole of Li_3N

Moles of Li_3N = 0.12

Molar mass of Li_3N = 34.83 g/mol

Mass of Li_3N = Moles × Molar mass = 0.12 × 34.83 g = 4.18 g

<u>Theoretical yield = 4.18 g</u>

Which orbital is partially filled in the Zirconium (ZI) atom?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

4d orbital.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since zirconium's atomic number is 40, we fill in the electron configuration up to 40 as shown below:

1s^2,2s^2,2p^6, 3s^2,3p^6,4s^2,3d^{10},4p^6,5s^2,4d^2

Thus, the orbital 4d is partially filled.

Best regards!

How many moles of aluminum are needed to make 9 moles of molecular hydrogen? given the reaction: 2 al + 6 hcl → 2 alcl3 + 3h2 6
sergiy2304 [10]
1) Chemical equation

2Al + 6 HCl ---> 2Al Cl3 + 3 H2

2) molar ratios

2 mol Al : 3 moles H2

3) Proportion

2 mol Al /  3mol H2 = x / 9 mol H2

4) Solve for x

x = 9 mol H2 * 2 mol Al / 3 mol H2 = 6 mol Ag

Answer: 6 moles
