Chemistry

Answer:

A. Rock fragments are layered and pressurized over time.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are derived from pre-existing rocks that have been subjected to agents of denudation, weathered, transported and deposited within a basin.

In the basin, the sediments are accumulated in their final resting position.

  • Sediments are accumulated as layers on top of one another.
  • The pressure of the sediment on top of another forces out water and presses the layers into sheets.
  • Over time, the compression leads to lithification of the rock.
  • During lithification, compaction and cementation occurs.

A sample of gas at STP has a volume of 5.23 L. If the gas volume is changed to 3.45 L at 293 K, calculate the new pressure of th
Sever21 [200]

Answer: P=1.63atm

Explanation:

Stp means standard temperature and pressure

Standard temperature =273k

Standard pressure =1atm

Using the formula

P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2

P1= 1atm

V1=5.23L

T1=273k

P2=?

V2=3.45L

T2=293k

Substitute the values

1×5.23/273=p2×3.45/293

Cross multiply

293×1×5.23=p2×3.45×273

1532.39=941.85p2

P2=1532.39/941.85

P2=1.627

P2=1.63atm
