1. A dependent variable is a factor that changes because of procedures conducted on the independent variable.

What happens when stress builds at faults? Select three options

Stels [109]

Answer:

When Stress builds up at faults, the 3 options that are correct and can happen

- Rock can bend and break;

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

Explanation:

This is a Geography question

- Rock can bend and break

When Stress builds up at faults, it leads to a geologic activity that causes a lot of pressure that lead to the movement of the earth's crust. The movement creates such intense pressure on the rocks, that, with time, they twist, bend, and break due to this pressure.

- Earthquakes develop at Earth's surface

As explained earlier, this intense pressure can lead to rocks breaking, as these rocks break inside the earth's crust, the gaps that come into play after the breaking of the rocks causes the remaining rocks to adjust, releasing a lot of force, and subsequently creating earthquakes.

- Forces affect Earth's rocks

As explained earlier, the forces resulting from these intense pressures, affect the earth's rocks. They move them both vertically and horizontally, change their shape and eventually break them.

Hope this Helps!!!

If you mix 50mL of 0.1 M TRIS acid with 60 mL of0.2 M TRIS base, what will be the resulting pH?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

For TRIS acid:

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol$

For TRIS base:

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol$

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

$[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}$

$[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7$

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal

wel

Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives
