How are plate tectonics and the rock cycle connected

Chemistry

1 answer:

mote1985 [20]3 years ago

Answer:

All igneous rocks the basis of the rock cycle are formed by plate tectonics. ... The heat from the mantle that fuels plate tectonics causes both igneous and sedimentary rocks to be turned into metamorphic rocks. The metamorphic rocks can be eroded into sedimentary rocks are remelted back into igneous.

The voltage generated by the zinc concentration cell described by the line notation Zn ( s ) ∣ ∣ Zn 2 + ( aq , 0.100 M ) ∥ ∥ Zn

Oxana [17]

Answer:

0.193 M

Explanation:

We need to calculate the Zn²⁺ concentration at the cathode where reduction occurs which is the right side in the expression:

Zn2+(aq,0.100 M) ‖ Zn2+(aq,? M) | Zn(s)

Zn²⁺ (aq,?) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Zn (s)

and oxidation will occur in the anode

Zn (s) ⇒ Zn²⁺ (aq, 0.100 M ) + 2 e⁻

and the overall reaction is

Zn²⁺ (aq,?) ⇒ Zn²⁺ (0.100 M )

The driving force is the difference in concentration and E the electromotive force will be given by

E = Eº - 0.0592/2 log [Zn²⁺ (0.100 M) / Zn²⁺ (M) ]

Plugging the value for E and knowing Eº is cero because we have the same electrodes, we have

17.0 x 10⁻³ = 0 - 0.0592 log 0.100/ X =

- 17.0 x 10⁻³ / 0.0592 = log 0.100 / X

- 0.287 = log (0.100 / X)

Taking inverse log to both sides of the equation

0.516 = 0.100 / X ⇒ X = 0.100 / 0.516 = 0.193 M

How does carbon cycle through the ocean, atmosphere, soil, and biosphere?

saw5 [17]

Carbon moves from one storage reservoir to another through a variety of mechanisms. For example, in the food chain, plants move carbon from the atmosphere into the biosphere through photosynthesis. Respiration, excretion, and decomposition release the carbon back into the atmosphere or soil, continuing the cycle.
make sure to paraphrase and give thanks:) good luck

What kinds of information does a structural formula reveal about the compound it represents

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

In organic chemistry, the structural formula shows the bonding and general layout of the molecule.

Explanation:

It can also help in naming the molecule, as many compounds with the same molecular formula have different structural formulas, for example cycloalkanes and alkenes, or aldehydes and ketones.

It tells us about the constituents of the compound, or in other words, the functional groups present. This enables us to predict what kind of properties the compound has and what kind of reactions it can undergo.

It can also help us determine the stereochemistry (shape and spatial orientation) of the compound. This is especially important in organic chemistry and organic chemstry, since certain important reactions will proceed if and only if a molecule with the right shape is employed.

Given the formula representing a molecule:

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

B) Symmetrical and nonpolar

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is H-C≡C-H.

Each C atom has two electron regions, so VSEPR theory predicts a linear molecular geometry (see image below).

The molecule is symmetrical, because the green line divides the molecule into two halves that are mirror images of each other.

The C-H bonds are slightly polar, because C is more electronegative than H (µ ≈ 0.4 D).

The C atoms are partially negative (red), while the H atoms are partially positive (blue).

However, the two C-H bond dipoles point in opposite directions, so they cancel each other. The molecule has no net dipole moment.

Acetylene is nonpolar.
