Answer:

They are called  "loess".

Explanation:

The loess (German word from Switzerland), are sedimentary clay deposits of wind origin. It is formed by silt deposits originated by the deposition of microscopic particles, which are transported by dust storms. They are yellowish. They are formed mainly by silicates, calcium carbonate and minerals from the clay group. It constitutes a very fertile and deep soil. The silt and clay are only visible through the microscope.

Have a nice day!

The correct answer to your question would be B) Loess, or <span>Aeolian deposits , reasoning to your question is because, loess is a german word but in english means loss or loose. So given that clay and small particles that are not combined together are loose particles. moves freely. Hope this helps you out.

3) In the Hydrolysis of Disaccharides and Polysaccharides portion of the lab, starch should give one positive iodine test and on
AfilCa [17]

Answer: potassium iodide is the basic test for starch,and the positive test is blue-black coloration, any other test substance which is not starch will give a negative results.

Explanation:

Starch is an example of  polysaccharide  and since the standard test for it is potassium iodide solution, it gives a positive test.

Diasaccharides e.g maltose are reducing sugars.their standard test is BENEDICT test .

Therefore, in the hydrolysis;  starch should give a positve test, while Diasaccharides should give negative rest.

At 500 K the reaction 2 NO(g) + Cl2(g) ⇌ 2 NOCl(g) has Kp = 51 In an equilibrium mixture at 500 K, the partial pressure of NO is
Aleks [24]

Answer:

p3=0.36atm (partial pressure of NOCl)

Explanation:

2 NO(g) + Cl2(g) ⇌ 2 NOCl(g)  Kp = 51

lets assume the partial pressure of NO,Cl2 , and NOCl at eequilibrium are P1 , P2,and P3 respectively

Kp=\frac{[NOCl]^{2} }{[NO]^{2} [Cl_2] }

Kp=\frac{[p3]^{2} }{[p1]^{2} [p2] }

p1=0.125atm;

p2=0.165atm;

p3=?

Kp=51;

On solving;

p3=0.36atm (partial pressure of NOCl)
