What causes earthquakes? Be sure to use the words: Core Mantle Conduction Convection Density

Chemistry
1 answer:
IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Earthquakes are normally caused by underground rock breaking along a fault line. The seismic waves that cause the earth to shake are caused by this sudden release of energy. The plates or blocks of rock begin to move during and after the earthquake, and they continue to move until they become trapped again. As fluid near the center heats up, convection currents develop within the Earth's mantle. Particles pass more quickly as the core heats the bottom layer of mantle material, lowering its density and allowing it to rise. The convection current is started by the growing material.

What does Avogadro's law state and what is the formula​
sertanlavr [38]

The law is approximately valid for real gases at sufficiently low pressures and high temperatures. The specific number of molecules in one gram-mole of a substance, defined as the molecular weight in grams, is 6.02214076 × 1023, a quantity called Avogadro's number, or the Avogadro constant.

How many moles of HCl are present in 4.7 L of a 4.23 M HCl solution?
REY [17]

Hey There!

Volume = 4.7 L

Molarity = 4.23 M

Therefore:

n = M *V

n = 4.23 * 4.7

n = 19.881 moles of HCl

hope this helps!

If 72.5 grams of calcium metal (Ca) react with 65.0 grams of oxygen gas (O2) in a synthesis reaction, how many grams of the exce
Natali5045456 [20]
2Ca + O2 = 2CaO
First, determine which is the excess reactant
72.5 g Ca (1 mol) =1.8089725036
(40.078 g)

65 g O2 (1 mol) =2.0313769611
(15.999g × 2)
Since the ratio of to O2 is 2:1 in the balanced reaction, divide Ca's molar mass by 2 to get 0.9044862518. this isn't necessary because Ca is already obviously the limiting reactant. therefore, O2 is the excess reactant.

Now do the stoichiometry
72.5 g Ca (1 mol Ca) (1 mol O2)
(40.078 g Ca)(2 mol Ca)(31.998g O2)

=0.0282669621 g of O2 left over

Which of the following statements are true regarding the dissociation of Al(NO3)3? Select more than one
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

There will be one Al3+ ion.

There will be 3 NO3- ions

Explanation:

Dissociation equation:

Al(NO₃)₃   →  Al³⁺ + 3NO₃¹⁻

When aluminium nitrate dissociate it produces one silver ion (Al³⁺) and three (NO₃¹⁻) ions.

Properties of Al(NO₃)₃:

It is inorganic compound having molecular mass 169.87 g/mol.

It is white odor less compound.

Its density is 4.35 g/mL.

Its melting and boiling points are 120°C and 440°C.

It is soluble in water.

It is sued to treat infections.

It is used in the photographic films.

It s toxic and must be handled with great care.
