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.

yarga [219]
This reaction is exothermic because the system (the aqueoud solution) is transferring heat to its surroundings (the calorimeter) so this eliminates two responses. Since the heat is being transferred to the surroundings, the water that's in the calorimeter in this case, it is causing the water molecules to heat up and thus an increase in the kinetic energy of the water molecules since temperature affects kinetic energy

Au(NO3)3 added with water? Aq or s?
Reptile [31]
Gold (III) nitrate in an aqueous solution is hydrolyzed with formation of gold (III) metahydroxide.

Au(NO₃)₃ → Au³⁺(aq) + 3NO₃⁻(aq)

Au³⁺ + H₂O ⇄ AuOH²⁺ + H⁺
AuOH²⁺ + H₂O ⇄ Au(OH)₂⁺ + H⁺
Au(OH)₂⁺  + H₂O → AuOOH·H₂O(s) + H⁺

Au(NO₃)₃(aq) + 2H₂O(l) = AuOOH(s) + 3HNO₃(aq)

List three branches life<br>Science and describe what studied in each?​
Mama L [17]

Answer:

First off Life sciences are anything concerned with the study of a living organisms. So ones that would be included would be, microbiology biology, botany, zoology, ecology, genetics and medicine, from what the dictionary states

Explanation:

Biology is the natural science that studies life and living organisms. Which also includes molecular interactions, including their physical structure.

Genetics, is the study of heredity and or the variation of inherited characteristics that we get from family.

Microbiology, is the branch of science which deals with microorganisms.

Let me know if this helps, if not I'll continue researching.

sergeinik [125]
<span>The type of map that shows the type and age of rocks in an area is called a Geologic Map. A geologic map is a special-purpose map that represents the distribution of diverse types of rocks, as well as locations of different geologic structures such as faults and folds. This map is the main source of information for various aspects of land-use planning, especially in the placement of transportation systems and buildings. Although they are typically depicted as two-dimensional, they can also be illustrated in its third or fourth dimension depending on the type of information needed to be taken. </span>

What is The pH and pOH of a 1.00x10-3M solution of CH3COOH (Ka=1.75x10-5) ?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

<h2>pH = 3.9</h2><h2>pOH = 10.1</h2>

Explanation:

Since CH _ 3COOH is a weak acid to find the pH of CH _ 3COOH we use the formula

pH =  -  \frac{1}{2}   log(Ka)  -  \frac{1}{2}  log(c)

where

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

c is the concentration

From the question

Ka of CH _ 3COOH = 1.75 × 10^-5

c = 1.00 × 10-³M

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the pH

That's

pH =  \frac{1}{2} ( -  log(1.75 \times {10 }^{ - 5} -  log(1.00 \times  {10}^{ - 3} )  )  \\   =  \frac{1}{2} (4.757  + 3) \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 7.757) \\  = 3.8785 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:

We have the answer as

<h3>pH = 3.9</h3>

To find the pOH we use the formula

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = 14 - 3.9

We have the answer as

<h3>pOH = 10.1</h3>

Hope this helps you
