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 orbitals are used to form the 10 sigma bonds in propane (ch3ch2ch3)? Label each atom with the appropriate hybridization. Dr
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Mixing of pure orbitals having nearly equal energy to form equal number of completely new orbitals is said to be hybridization.

For the compound, CH_3CH_2CH_3 the electronic configuration of the atoms, carbon and hydrogen are:

Carbon (atomic number=6): In ground state= 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{2}

In excited state: 1s^{2}2s^{1}2p^{3}

Hydrogen (atomic number=1): 1s^{1}

All the bonds in the compound is single bond(\sigma-bond) that is they are formed by head on collision of the orbitals.

The structure of the compound is shown in the image.

The Carbon-Hydrogen bond is formed by overlapping of s-orbital of hydrogen to p-orbital of carbon.

In order to complete the octet the required number of electrons for carbon is 4 and for hydrogen is 1. So, the electron in 1s^{1} of hydrogen will overlap to the 2p^{3}-orbital of carbon.

Thus, the hybridization of Hydrogen is s-hybridization and the hybridization of Carbon is sp^{3}-hybridization.

The hybridization of each atom is shown in the image.

How many moles of water are produced if 5.43 mol PbO2 are consumed
Mariana [72]
It has to be understood that 2 moles of oxygen are there in each mole of PbO2. Then it has to be calculated for 2 moles of oxygen.

Amount of oxygen = 2 * 5.43 moles
                              = 10.86 moles
Now it is also a fact that each mole of H2O contains 1 mole of oxygen. Then it can be easily concluded that 10.86 moles of water will be produced. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

When 16.0 g of an unknown compound (a nonelectrolyte) are dis solved in exactly 800. g of water, the solution has a freezing poi
dexar [7]

Answer:

A. 266g/mol

Explanation:

A colligative property of matter is freezing point depression. The formula is:

ΔT = i×Kf×m <em>(1)</em>

Where:

ΔT is change in temperature (0°C - -0,14°C = 0,14°C)i is Van't Hoff factor (1 for a nonelectrolyte dissolved in water), kf is freezing point molar constant of solvent (1,86°Cm⁻¹) and m is molality of the solution (moles of solute per kg of solution). The mass of the solution is 816,0g

Replacing in (1):

0,14°C = 1×1,86°Cm⁻¹× mol Solute / 0,816kg

<em>0,0614 = mol of solute</em>.

As molar mass is defined as grams per mole of substance and the compound weights 16,0g:

16,0g / 0,0614 mol = 261 g/mol ≈ <em>A. 266g/mol</em>

I hope it helps!
