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

Chemistry
1 answer:
IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago

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.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

The arrow shows that the bond between the chlorine atom and the fluorine atom is nonpolar. The electrons in the bond are pulled more strongly by the fluorine atom, and the chlorine atom is slightly positive.

Explanation:

  • The bond between Chlorine and fluorine is nonpolar bonding because both of them are sharing an equal number of electrons in the bond. H2, F2, and CL2 are common examples of this.
  • Chlorine and fluorine are electronegative molecules but Fluorine is above chlorine in the periodic table. Since fluorine is above Chlorine, fluorine has slightly highest electronegative nature compare to fluorine. This is the reason why Fluorine molecules are attracting electrons more than chlorine atoms. This making chlorine atoms slightly positive in Cl and F bonding.

A drought has affected an ecosystem. Many plants have died due to lack of water. What do you think will happen ti the other orga
IceJOKER [234]
I think eventually other organisms will die out as well because many herbivores feed on plants for survival, and many other animals feed on these herbivores for survival and so on (this causes a chain reaction because there is a lack of available food)<span />
