D - Continental spreading happens when magma rises from the ocean floor causing the old rocks to be pushed away and causing the new rocks to be formed down and to be a replacement for the old rocks that drifted away. This causes a cycle where new rocks and old rocks get replaced and this cycle always has the old rocks getting pushed away.

The dissociation of sulfurous acid (H2SO3) in aqueous solution occurs as follows:
aksik [14]

Answer:

The [SO₃²⁻]

Explanation:

From the first dissociation of sulfurous acid we have:

                         H₂SO₃(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + HSO₃⁻(aq)

At equilibrium:  0.50M - x          x            x

The equilibrium constant (Ka₁) is:

K_{a1} = \frac{[H^{+}] [HSO_{3}^{-}]}{[H_{2}SO_{3}]} = \frac{x\cdot x}{0.5 - x} = \frac {x^{2}}{0.5 -x}

With Ka₁= 1.5x10⁻² and solving the quadratic equation, we get the following HSO₃⁻ and H⁺ concentrations:

[HSO_{3}^{-}] = [H^{+}] = 7.94 \cdot 10^{-2}M

Similarly, from the second dissociation of sulfurous acid we have:

                              HSO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + SO₃²⁻(aq)

At equilibrium:  7.94x10⁻²M - x          x            x

The equilibrium constant (Ka₂) is:  

K_{a2} = \frac{[H^{+}] [SO_{3}^{2-}]}{[HSO_{3}^{-}]} = \frac{x^{2}}{7.94 \cdot 10^{-2} - x}  

Using Ka₂= 6.3x10⁻⁸ and solving the quadratic equation, we get the following SO₃⁻ and H⁺ concentrations:

[SO_{3}^{2-}] = [H^{+}] = 7.07 \cdot 10^{-5}M

Therefore, the final concentrations are:

[H₂SO₃] = 0.5M - 7.94x10⁻²M = 0.42M

[HSO₃⁻] = 7.94x10⁻²M - 7.07x10⁻⁵M = 7.93x10⁻²M

[SO₃²⁻] = 7.07x10⁻⁵M

[H⁺] = 7.94x10⁻²M + 7.07x10⁻⁵M = 7.95x10⁻²M

So, the lowest concentration at equilibrium is [SO₃²⁻] = 7.07x10⁻⁵M.

I hope it helps you!

The diagram below is an artist’s impression of a single atom of element Be. The neutrons are shown with stripes, the protons are
Ahat [919]

Answer is: beryllium-10.

The diagram shows that atom has 4 protons, 5 neutrons and 2 valence electrons.

Atomic number is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element, beryllium (Be) is an element with atomic number 4.

Two valence electrons means that atom is from 2. group of periodic table, only beryllium is from that group; sodium (1. group), boron (13. group) and carbon (14. group).

Beryllium-10 has 6 neutrons, so it is isotope (different number of neutrons or mass number).
