Answer:
-Growth of plants on the rock.
-Temperature and pressure changes in nature.
-Freezing and thawing of water in cracks of the rock.
-Formation of salt crystals within the rock.
-Burrowing by animals.
those are some factors I know
hope this helped you
Answer:
More energy is required to raise its temperature. Therefore, temperature does not stay the same when heat energy increases.
Pressure varies in the atmosphere because air molecules are being pulled down towards the center of the earth-hope this helps!
The reaction between mercury (Hg) and sulfur (S) to form HgS is:
Hg + S ------------- HgS
Therefore: 1 mole of Hg reacts with 1 mole of S to form 1 mole of HgS
The given mass of Hg = 246 g
Atomic mass of Hg = 200.59 g/mol
# moles of Hg = 246 g/ 200.59 gmol-1 = 1.226 moles
Based on the reaction stoichiometry,
# moles of S that would react = 1.226 moles
Atomic mass of S = 32 g/mol
Therefore, mass of S = 1.226 moles*32 g/mole = 39.23 g
39.2 g of sulfur would be needed to react completely with 246 g of Hg to produce HgS
