Why does granite have larger crystals than obsidian?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Arlecino [84]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:Granite forms as magma cools far under the earth's surface. Because it hardens deep underground it cools very slowly. This allows crystals of the four minerals to grow large enough to be easily seen by the naked eye. Look at the photo of granite above, notice the different crystals in the rock

Which statement applies to electronegativity?
densk [106]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.

This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.

This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is Option A.

Valence electrons will either ______________ or ______________ to form molecules.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

ionic or covalent

Explanation:

The outermost electrons -- the valence electrons -- are able to interact with other atoms, and, depending on how those electrons interact with other the atoms, either an ionic or covalent bond is formed, and the atoms fuse together to form a molecule.

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes with masses of 23.99 amuamu, 24.99 amuamu, and 25.98 amuamu and natural abundan
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

24.309 g/mol

Explanation:

To get the atomic mass, all we have to do is calculate with the masses of the three isotope, the real quantity present, taking account of the percent and then, do a sum of these three values. Like a pondered media.

For the first isotope:

23.99 * (78.99/100) = 18.95 g/mol

For the second isotope:

24.99 * (10/100) = 2.499 g/mol

For the last isotope:

25.98 * (11.01/100) = 2.86 g/mol

Now, let's sum all three together

AW = 18.95 + 2.499 + 2.86

AW = 24.309 g/mol

Mass
DiKsa [7]

The molecular formula =C₆H₁₂O₆

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

6.00 g of a certain compound X

The molecular molar mass of 180. g/mol

CO₂=8.8 g

H₂O=3.6 g

Required

The molecular formula

Solution

mass C in CO₂ :

= 1.12/44 x 8.8

= 2.4 g

mass H in H₂O :

= 2.1/18 x 3.6

= 0.4 g

Mass O in compound :

= 6-(2.4+0.4)

= 3.2 g

Mol ratio C : H : O

= 2.4/12 : 0.4/1 : 3.2/16

= 0.2 : 0.4 : 0.2

= 1 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula : CH₂O

(CH₂O)n=180 g/mol

(12+2+16)n=180

(30)n=180

n=6

(CH₂O)₆=C₆H₁₂O₆
