Why do not all rock types contain fossils?

Answer:

Igneous rocks form from molten rock, and rarely have fossils in them. Metamorphic rocks have been put under great pressure, heated, squashed or stretched, and fossils do not usually survive these extreme conditions. Generally it is only sedimentary rocks that contain fossils.

Explanation:

Hope it helps, some how.

Draw a mechanism for the first step of the reaction between methyllithium (CH3Li) and acetone. Then answer the two multiple choi

pogonyaev

Answer:

See the attached image

Explanation:

The first step is the production of the carboanion in the $CH_3Li$ compound. We will get the negative charge on the methyl group and the positive charge in the Li atom.

Then the carboanion can attack the acetone. The double bond of the oxo group would delocalized upon the oxygen, generating a positive charge in the carbon that can be attacked by the carboanion formaiting a new C-C bond.

It was calculated that 4.3mL of 0.417 M HCl is required to titrate 11.9 mL of 0.151 M Mg(OH)2. Show evidence 2 HCl(aq) + Mg(OH)2

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the described chemical reaction:

2 HCl(aq) + Mg(OH)2(aq) → MgCl2(aq) + 2 H2O(l)

We can notice there is a 2:1 molar ratio between the moles of hydrochloric acid and magnesium hydroxide, therefore, at the equivalence point:

$n_{HCl}=2*n_{Mg(OH)_2}$

And in terms of volumes and concentrations we verify:

$V_{HCl}M_{HCl}=2*V_{Mg(OH)_2}M_{Mg(OH)_2}$

So we use the given data to proof it:

$4.3mL*0.417M=2*11.9mL*0.151M\\1.793=3.594$

Therefore, we can conclude the data is wrong by means of the 2:1 mole ratio that for sure was not taken into account. This is also supported by the fact that normalities are actually the same, but the nomality of magnesium hydroxide is the half of the hydrochloric acid normality since the acid is monoprotic and the base has two hydroxyl ions.

Best regards.

Rank the nonmetals in each set from most reactive (1) to least reactive (3). Neon: Selenium: Fluorine

expeople1 [14]

The periodic trend of reactivity depends on whether the elements are metals or nonmetals. For metals, reactivity increases down a group and from right to left across a period. Nonmetals do the opposite. For nonmetals, reactivity increases up a group and from left to right across a period. Therefore, the rank is as follows:

Fluorine

Selenium

Neon

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
