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.

How many electrons does one neutrally charged atom of argon have?
padilas [110]

Answer:

A. 18

Explanation:

A neutral charged atom is an atom with 0 charge.

Anyway, first look at the periodic table and find Argon.

After you find Argon, look at its Atomic number.

Its Atomic number is 18.

And a neutral atom of Argon has 0 charge.

So we need 18 electrons for Argon to cancel out and become neutral.

Basic math:

18 +( -18) = 0

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 18

Hope it helped!

Water has a vapor pressure of 23.8 mm Hg at 25°C and a heat of vaporization of 40.657 kJ/mol. Using the Clausius-Clapeyron equat
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

P = 559.553 mmHg

Explanation:

Clasius-Clapeyron:

  • Ln(P2/P1) = - ΔHv/R [ 1/T2 - 1/T1 ]

∴ P1 = 23.8 mmHg = 3.173 KPa

∴ T1 = 25°C ≅ 298 K

∴ ΔHv = 40.657 KJ/mol

∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol

∴ T2 = 96°C ≅ 369 K

⇒ Ln P2/P1 = - (40.657 KJ/mol/8.314 E-3 KJ/K,mol) [(1/369 K) - (1/298 K) ]

⇒ Ln P2/P1 = - (4890.185 K) [ - 6.457 E-4 K-1 ]

⇒ Ln P2/P1 = 3.1575

⇒ P2/P1 = 23.511

⇒ P2 = (23.511)(3.173 KPa)

⇒ P2 = 74.601 KPa = 559.553 mmHg
