How has the study of fossil rocks evolved over time? (personal answer)

Chemistry

d1i1m1o1n [39]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When an organism dies, it is usually destroyed by other forms of life and by weathering processes. On rare occasions some body parts—particularly hard ones such as shells, teeth, or bones—are preserved by being buried in mud or protected in some other way from predators and weather. Eventually, they may become petrified and preserved indefinitely with the rocks in which they are embedded. Methods such as radiometric dating—measuring the amounts of natural radioactive atoms that remain in certain minerals to determine the elapsed time since they were constituted—make it possible to estimate the time period when the rocks, and the fossils associated with them.

melomori [17]

Answer:

ΔE = 73 J

Explanation:

By the first law of thermodynamics, the energy in the system must conserved:

ΔE = Q - W

Where ΔE is the internal energy, Q is the heat flow (positive if it's absorbed by the system, and negative if the system loses heat), and W is the work (positive if the system is expanding, and negative if the system is compressing).

So, Q = + 551 J, and W = + 478 J

ΔE = 551 - 478

ΔE = 73 J

Help Please... giving brainliest..
WINSTONCH [101]

1) Well, you need to logically think about which of the pecan trees would be better. Tree 3 may have more clusters but they taste bitter so this is out of the option. So Tree 4 and Tree 1 would be best because they both have rich and buttery tastes and they both have a lot of clusters.

2) Not quite sure about this one, sorry :(

The chart shows the solubility of different substances.
Annette [7]
Answer: 1) Temperature can change the solubility of a solute.

Explanation:

The chart is missing so there is no way to tell what does the graph show.

Yet, I can help you because I can explain the status of each statement of the choices. As you will see there is only one possibility..

<span>1) Temperature can change the solubility of a solute.

Yes, temperature definetly can, and mostly do, modify the solubility of a solute.

You can search any chart of solubility and will find that.

I can give you two examples:

a) Sodium chloride: dissolve some spoons of salt in a cold water  until you can not dissolve more. Then, heat the water, you will find that more salt will get dissolved, proving that the temperature of the solution increases the solubility of sodium chloride.

b) Carbon dioxide gas: the soft drinks have CO₂ molecules dissolved in it.
 
The higher the temperature of the soft drink the less the amount of CO₂(g) that can be dissolved. That is why the soda bottling plants cool the beverage before adding the CO₂(g).

2) </span><span>Temperature has no affect on the solubility of a solute.

Since this is the opposite to the first statement and the first is true, this is false.

3) Salt has a greater solubility than sugar.

False.

This is an empirical result, which you cannot predict theoretically. So you need to see at the data either in a table or in a chart. Else you can test it at home. After the empirical data are shown it results that more grams of sugar can be dissolved in water compared to salt.

That is something you ca see in a chart or you can prove by yourself.

4) Nitrite salt has a greater solubility than sugar. </span>

False.

Looking at some data you can find that sodium nitrite solutiliby is aroun  70 - 100 g/10 g while sugar (sucrose) solutiblity is around 180 - 235 g/ 100 g.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

1 mole FeCr2/ 1 mole FeCr2O4

Explanation:

We have to write down the equation of the reaction before we can answer the question;

2C(s) + FeCr2O4(s) -------> FeCr2(s) + 2CO2(g)

By inspection of this reaction equation, we can clearly see that the mole ratio of the reactants and products is 2:1:1:2.

Specifically, the ratio of chromites to ferrochrome is 1:1

Hence;

The mole ration required to convert chromites to ferrochrome is;

1 mole FeCr2/ 1 mole FeCr2O4
