The brownish rock is a sedimentry rock was formed when things like sand, mud, or pebbles get laid down in layers. Eventually the layers are lithified.

The grey rock is a metamorphic rock and was when other rocks are changed because of heat or pressure. Earth movements can cause rocks to be deeply buried or squeezed. As a result, the rocks are heated and put under great pressure. They do not melt, but the minerals they contain are changed chemically, forming metamorphic rocks.

The red dots rock is an igneous rock. Igneous rock forms when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies.

Give three examples of energy being changed to other forms.

dimaraw [331]

Solar: rays from the sun shine on solar pannels creating energy which is a renewable energy.
Water: water stored at a dam flows through turbines creating energy which is a renewable energy
Fossil fuels: fossil fuels are extracted from the ground the burned to create energy and this is a nonrenewable resource.
Hope this helps :)

How many 3-liter balloons could the 12-L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm fill? Keep in mind that an "exhausted" helium tank i

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The 12L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm will fill 636 3-liter balloons

Explanation:

It is possible to answer this question using Boyle's law:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

Where P₁ is the pressure of the tank (160atm), V₁ is the volume of the tank (12L), P₂ is the pressure of the balloons (1atm, atmospheric pressure) And V₂ is the volume this gas will occupy at 1 atm, thus:

160atm×12L = 1atm×V₂

V₂ = 1920L

As the tank will never be empty, the volume of the gas able to fill balloons is the total volume minus 12L, thus the volume of helium able to fill balloons is:

1920L - 12L = 1908L

1908L will fill:

1908L× $\frac{1balloon}{3L}$ = 636 balloons

I hope it helps!

If the volume occupied by 0.500 mol of nitrogen gas at 0°C is 11.2 L, then the volume occupied by 2.00 mol of nitrogen gas at th

Paraphin [41]

Avagadros law states that volume of gas is directly proportional to number of moles of gas at constant pressure and temperature.
$\frac{V1}{n1} = \frac{V2}{n2}$
where V -volume , n - number of moles
parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
substituting these values in the equation
$\frac{11.2 L}{0.500 mol} = \frac{V}{2.00 mol}$
V = 44.8 L
answer is C. 44.8 L
