Answer: Convection Currents

Explanation: The mantle rock is solid and denser because it is cooler. This means it will sink closer to lower mantle as warmer, lense dense rock/magma moves upwards.

Tatiana [17]
Equation is as follow,

<span>                          4 Na (s)  +  O</span>₂ <span>(g)    →    2Na</span>₂<span>O (s)

According to equation,

      91.92 g (4 moles) of Na produces  =  123.92 g (2 moles) of Na</span>₂O
So,
                    17.4 g of Na will produce  =  X g of Na₂O

Solving for X,
                                   X  =  (17.4 g × 123.92 g) ÷ 91.92 g

                                   X  =  23.45 g of Na₂O

Which one of the following descriptions relating to nuclear reactions is correct?
monitta

Answer: option D - The total number of nucleons changes.

Explanation:

Nuclear Reaction is best described as a process such as the fission of an atomic nucleus, or the fusion of one or more atomic nuclei and / or subatomic particles in which the NUMBER of PROTONS and / or NEUTRONS in a nucleus CHANGES; the reaction products may contain a different element or a different isotope of the same element.

Note that the NUCLEONS refers to ONE of the subatomic particles of the atomic nucleus, i.e. a PROTON or a NEUTRON.

So, in a Nuclear reaction, the total number of nucleons changes.

Consider the reaction. mc014-1.jpg How many grams of methane should be burned in an excess of oxygen at STP to obtain 5.6 L of c
garri49 [273]
The reaction for the combustion of methane can be expressed as follows.
                           CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O
We solve first for the amount of carbon dioxide in moles by dividing the given volume by 22.4L which is the volume of 1 mole of gas at STP.
                            moles of CO2 = (5.6 L) / (22.4 L/1 mole)
                             moles of CO2 = 0.25 moles
Then, we can see that every mole of carbon dioxide will need 1 mole of methane
                              moles methane = (0.25 moles CO2) x (1 moles O2/1 mole CO2)
                                                    = 0.25 moles CH4
Then, multiply this by the molar mass of methane which is 16 g/mole. Thus, the answer is 4 grams methane.
