Answer:

Oceanic crust is not only thinner and denser than continental crust, and it is also much younger than it and has a different chemical composition. When magma from the mantle of the earth finds a way up, it comes into contact with water that cools it down quickly

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

643g of methane will there be in the room

Explanation:

To solve this question we must, as first, find the volume of methane after 1h = 3600s. With the volume we can find the moles of methane using PV = nRT -<em>Assuming STP-</em>. With the moles and the molar mass of methane (16g/mol) we can find the mass of methane gas after 1 hour as follows:

<em>Volume Methane:</em>

3600s * (0.25L / s) = 900L Methane

<em>Moles methane:</em>

PV = nRT; PV / RT = n

<em>Where P = 1atm at STP, V is volume = 900L; R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK; T is absolute temperature = 273.15K at sTP</em>

Replacing:

PV / RT = n

1atm*900L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15 = n

n = 40.18mol methane

<em>Mass methane:</em>

40.18 moles * (16g/mol) =

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force, how will that object respond?
marissa [1.9K]
Newton's Second Law states:
The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

since the net force and the acceleration ar directly proportional, as the net force increases the acceleration will increase.

hope this helps :)

Identify the type of reaction depicted below:<br> 2SO2(g)<br> +<br> O2(g) --&gt; 2SO3(g)
ioda

Answer:

Combination reaction

Explanation:

In Chemistry, elements and compounds are involved in a process called chemical reactions, which are of different types namely: combination, decomposition, double replacement, combustion etc. A combination reaction is that reaction in which two or more substances called the REACTANTS combine together to form a single new substance called the PRODUCT.

In this case, a reaction is depicted as follows:

2SO2(g) + O2(g) --> 2SO3(g)

In this reaction, compound SO2 combines chemically with element O2 to form a single new compound SO3. Hence, this is a type of COMBINATION REACTION.

Lana is studying a chemical reaction in which the reactants propane (c3h8) and oxygen gas (o2) react to yield the products carbo
makvit [3.9K]
In such type of problems where reactant and product ratios are calculated one (Launa) should take start from balanced chemical equation. A balanced chemical equations helps in solving such problems. For this purpose chemical equation of this combustion reaction is drawn.

Equation:

                          C₃H₁₀ ⁺ 5 O₂  ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻>  3 CO₂ ⁺ 4 H₂O

Now, According to this balanced equation one molecule of propane reacts with 5 molecules of oxygen to produce 3 molecules of carbon dioxide and 4 molecules of water.

As She is given with 2 molecules of propane and 10 molecules of oxygen, which means that the equation is multiplied by 2. So, the product side must also be multiplied by 2 to balance the equatio (Law of Conservation of Mass).

Result:

                      ( C₃H₁₀ ⁺ 5 O₂  ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻>  3 CO₂ ⁺ 4 H₂O ) ₓ 2

                        2 C₃H₁₀ ⁺ 10 O₂  ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻>  6 CO₂ ⁺ 8 H₂O

So, 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 8 molecules of water are produced.
