Convection currents drive the movement of Earth's rigid tectonic plates in the planet's fluid molten mantle. In places where convection currents rise up towards the crust's surface, tectonic plates move away from each other in a process known as seafloor spreading

Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat. ... Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.

Calculate the standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol at its boiling point 285 K. The standard molar enthalpy of vaporizatio
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol = 142.105 J/K-mol

Explanation:

given data

enthalpy of vaporization of ethanol = 40.5 kJ/mol = 40.5 × 10^{3} J/mol

entropy of vaporization of ethanol boiling point = 285 K

to find out

standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol

solution

we get here standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol that is expess as

standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol ΔS = \frac{\Delta H}{T} .............1

here ΔH is enthalpy of vaporization of ethanol and  T is temperature

put value in equation 1

standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol ΔS =  \frac{40.5*10^3}{285}

standard entropy of vaporization of ethanol = 142.105 J/K-mol

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The answer is: Applied Chemistry

Explanation:

Apllied Chemistry is a branch of Chemistry that deals with the application and use of Chemistry principles and theories to answer a specific question or solve real world problems. It is aimed at taking Chemistry knowlege from the classroom to the real world. In this example, Marie noticed that a problem had arisen, and that is corrosion of metals, and she set out to apply the principles of Chemistry to make a paint formulation that prevvents corrosion, not just on paper with a bunch of formulas and calculations, but translated into a real life substance. On the other hand, pure Chemistry is the theoretical aspect of Chemistry, where the result of the researches are purely for knowlege and not for real world application.

Why is water essential to living things? (1 pc
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Living organisms need water to survive. Many scientists even believe that if any extra-terrestrial exists, water must be present in their environments. All oxygen-dependent organisms need water to aid in the respiration process. Some organisms, such as fish, can only breathe in water. Other organisms require water to break down food molecules or generate energy during the respiration process. Water also helps many organisms regulate metabolism and dissolves compounds going into or out of the body.
