What does the Theory of Plate Tectonics state

2 answers:

5 0

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet.

Why does perchloric acid cause macromolecules to precipitate?

asambeis [7]

Perchloric acid (HCO₄) is one of strongest inorganic acids. Perchloric acid precipitation is used to removes most of the protein present in the sample and stabilize many of the small molecule analytes. It can use also to precipitation glycogen, ATP, glutathione, antioxidants.
Perchloric acid donates protons to macromolecules and lower their solubility in water. Also perchloric acid is strong oxidizing agent and change oxidation number of elements.

Find the volume. mass is 9.75 g and the density is 15.6 g/cm3

Leni [432]

Answer:

1.6cm3

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

15.6g/cm3= 9.75 g/volume

15.6/9.75 = volume

1.6cm3 = volume

Which substance has Hf defined as 0 kJ/mol? H2O (s) Ne (l) O2 (g) CO2 (g)

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

O₂ (g).

Explanation:

All elements that found in nature has heat of formation (Hf) equal 0 J/mol.

So, the substance that has heat of formation (Hf) equal 0 J/mol is O₂ (g).

H₂O is formed from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen and has Hf, Also, the solidification of H₂O (s) from H₂O (l) has (Hf).

Although, Ne (g) is found in nature and has no Hf, the liquification to form Ne (l) has heat of formation (Hf).

CO₂ (g) is formed from the reaction between carbon and oxygen and so has heat of formation (Hf).

Volume is an extensive physical property because it is dependent on the size of the sample.

BaLLatris [955]

Hi,

The statement is true, as the volume of a sample depends on its size.

I hope this helps. If I was not clear enough or if you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistakes.

How many grams of water can I convert from a liquid to a gas with 6768 joules?

vredina [299]

Answer:

The amount of water converted from liquid to gas with 6,768 joules is approximately 3.035 g

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to convert a given amount of liquid to gas at its boiling point is known as the latent heat of evaporation of the liquid

The latent heat of evaporation of water, Δ $H_v$ ≈ 2,230 J/g

The relationship between the heat supplied, 'Q', and the amount of water in grams, 'm', evaporated is given as follows

Q = m × Δ $H_v$

Therefore, the amount of water, 'm', converted from liquid to gas at the boiling point temperature (100°C), when Q = 6,768 Joules, is given as follows;

6,768 J = m × 2,230 J/g

∴ m = 6,768 J /(2,230 J/g) ≈ 3.035 g

The amount of water converted from liquid to gas with 6,768 joules = m ≈ 3.035 g.
