Answer:

The amplitude of a transverse wave is the difference between the height of crest which is the maximum point and the resting position the minimum point of one curve of a wave.

Please look at the attachment to see the figure to make the answer more clear.

Transverse waves are those that moves in the direction along x-axis

To determine the amplitude of a transverse wave, measure the highest amount of disturbance from the equilibrium that the wave experiences.

Compound Y has a distribution coefficient of 4.0 when extracted from water with chloroform, with Y being more soluble in chlorof

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

There are needed 3 extractions to extract at least 95%

Explanation:

The distribution coefficient of a compound is defined as the ratio in concentration of the compound in the organic solvent and the concentration in the aqueous solution:

K = Concentration organic solvent / Concentration in water

Assuming as initial amount of the organic solvent: 100% and X as the amount of Y that is extracted

First extraction:

4 = X / 10mL / (100-X) / 50mL

4 = 50X / 1000-X

4000 - 4X = 50X

4000 = 54X

X = 74.1%

In the first extraction, 74.1% of Y is extracted

And will remain: 100 - 74.1 = 25.9%

Second extraction:

4 = X / 10mL / (25.9-X) / 50mL

4 = 50X / 259-X

1036 - 4X = 50X

1036 = 54X

X = 19.2%

In the second extraction, 19.2% of Y is extracted

And will remain: 25.9 - 19.2 = 6.7%

Third extraction

4 = X / 10mL / (6.7-X) / 50mL

4 = 50X / 67-X

268 - 4X = 50X

268 = 54X

X = 5.0%

In the first extraction, 5.0% of Y is extracted

And are extracted:

74.1% + 19.2% + 5.0% = 98.3%

That means there are needed 3 extractions to extract at least 95%

Which type of crust combination CANNOT undergo subduction?

nordsb [41]

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

Subduction: they present if or if two Convergent edges or subduction zones (destructive edges). Where two plates collide, due to having movements with opposite directions, the denser one sinks below the less dense one along what is known as the subduction zone; the subducting plate goes into the mantle, heating up and partially melting generating magma that rises to the surface. A subduction zone is characterized by deformation, volcanism, mountain formation, metamorphism, seismic activity, and significant mineral deposits.

This phenomenon occurs between oceanic plates or between a continental and an oceanic plate, since when there is a difference in density they subduct.

In the event that the edges of two continental plates collide, it would be OBDUCTION, which is another phenomenon other than subduction. mantle does not produce the correct subduction process, as the movement must be absorbed in some way, this is carried out by vertically deforming both plates, which are joined by a suture area, forming an inner mountainous belt and Suffering, in addition, numerous earthquakes. This process is very important, since it is the one that has given rise to the highest mountain ranges on Earth and is a very active process at present (Ex: Los Alpes, Los Montes Urales and Montes Himalaya).

QUESTION 3 (a) Ammonium sulphate, (NH),50, is a soluble salt and it is used in agriculture as fertiliser. 5 g of ammonium sulpha

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The equation: (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2NH4(+) + SO4(-2)

The number of moles = 5 g / 132.14 g/mol = 0.038 mol

The number of molecules = 0.038 X 6.022x10^23 = 2.29x10^23

the number of positive ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution:

2 positive ions for every 1 molecule of (NH₄)₂SO₄

so 2 x 2.29x10^23 = 4.58x10^23

the number of negative ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution

1 negative ion for every 1 molecule of (NH₄)₂SO₄

so 1 x 2.29x10^23 = 2.29x10^23

the total number of ions present in the ammonium sulphate solution

4.58x10^23 + 2.29x10^23 = 6.87x10^23
