Answer:

Abrasion occurs when the ice sheet scours and wears away at the underlying rock, gradually wearing it down over time. Plucking occurs when the chunks of rock become bonded to the ice sheet, so that when the ice sheet moves it carries the chunks of rock with it. Both of these processes wear away a rock body until a distinct formation develops. In this case, a glacier horn may develop.

CaSO3 (s) → → → → CaO (s) + SO2 (g) What mass of CaSO3 must have been present initially to produce 14.5 L of SO2 gas at a temper
Phoenix [80]
Using the ideal gas law, the number of moles SO2 is equal to PV/RT, or pressure times volume divided by the gas constant and temperature.  This is 14.5*1.1/((2.5+279.15)*.082), or 0.66 moles.  Since one mole CaSO3 is consumed for every mole SO2 generated, 0.66 moles of CaSO3 are consumed.  CaSO3 has a molar mass of 40+32+16*3=120 grams, so .66 moles of CaSO3 is equal to 80 grams, our final answer.

ANSWER ASAPP<br> What causes the motion of particles? And more energy equals what?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

particles in solids are always vibrating (moving back and forth) in place the vibrational motion of particles in solids is kinetic energy heat makes the particles in a solid vibrate faster, giving them more kinetic energy faster-vibrating particles bump into one another more often and hit each other harder
