Answer:All life would die!!

Explanation:The Earth's oceans and continents would no longer exist if the plates stopped moving. Everything would dry up and flatten out. The atmosphere would build up CO2 and could become uncomfortably hot and difficult to breathe.

Answer:

But without plate tectonics, Earth will simply stop making new ones. The mountains we have now would erode over a few million years, turning into low, rolling hills. Our planet would eventually flatten out, with more land ending up underwater. On the bright side, there'd be fewer natural disasters.

Explanation:

that is what would happen

Hydrogen may not be advantagous as a fuel because-------

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Hydrogen may not be advantageous as a fuel because...

- Its expensive

- Its difficult to store

- Its highly flammable

- Its dependent on fossil fuels

Explanation:

Its expensive - Not only is hydrogen gas expensive, but it also takes a lot of work to free from other elements. It is both expensive and time-consuming to produce.

Its difficult to store - Moving hydrogen is not an easy task. Moving anything more than small amounts of hydrogen was also very expensive, making it impractical.

Its highly flammable - When exposed to the atmosphere, hydrogen could potentially form explosive mixtures.

Its dependent on fossil fuels - Hydrogen energy itself is renewable. However, the process of separating it from oxygen uses non-renewable sources such as coal and oil.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction AgBr(s) Picture Ag+(aq) + Br− (aq) is the solubility product constant, Ksp = 7.7 × 10−

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations.

Explanation:

$AgBr(s)\rightarrow Ag^+(aq) + Br^- (aq)$

Expression for an equilibrium constant $K_c$ :

$K_c=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{[AgCl]}=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{1}=[Ag^+][Br^-]$

Solubility product of the reaction:

$K_{sp}=[Ag^+][Br^-]=K_c=7.7\times 10^{-13}$

Reaction between Gibb's free energy and equilibrium constant if given as:

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_c$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_{sp}$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times 8.314 J/K mol\times 298 K\times \log[7.7\times 10^{-13}]$

$\Delta G^o=69,117.84 J/mol=69.117 kJ/mol$

Gibb's free energy when concentration $[Ag^+] = 1.0\times 10^{-2} M$ and $[Br^-] = 1.0\times 10^{-3} M$

Reaction quotient of an equilibrium = Q

$Q=[Ag^+][Br^-]=1.0\times 10^{-2} M\times 1.0\times 10^{-3} M=1.0\times 10^{-5}$

$\Delta G=\Delta G^o+(2.303\times R\times T\times \log Q)$

$\Delta G=69.117 kJ/mol+(2.303\times 8.314 Joule/mol K\times 298 K\times \log[1.0\times 10^{-5}])$

$\Delta G=40.588 kJ/mol$

For reaction to spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G$ .
For reaction to non spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G>0$ .

Since ,the value of Gibbs free energy is greater than zero which means reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations

Explain 3 sources of carbon dioxide production and explain how the production of CO2 can lead to global warming.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Natural sources include decomposition, ocean release and respiration. Human sources come from activities like cement production, deforestation as well as the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas.
