Is exposure to oxygen a type of mechanical weathering

Chemistry
1 answer:
evablogger [386]3 years ago
6 0
Weathering is the name given to the process of breaking-down rocks at Earth's surface. This is accomplished due to the exposure to oxygen through the process of oxidation and to the exposure to water in its various forms (liquid, solid, & gas). ... Water is the primary agent for mechanical weathering.

Consider a sample of 11.2 g of ice initially at 0.0 C. How much energy in kilojoules is required to melt the ice and warm it to
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

1034.88J

Explanation:

Given that:

mass (m) = 11.2 g, initial temperature = 0°C, final temperature = 22°C, the specific heat capacity of water (C) = 4.2 J/g°C

Temperature difference (ΔT) = final temperature - initial temperature = 22 - 0 = 22°C

The quantity of heat (Q) required to melt the ice can be calculated from the equation:

Q = mCΔT

Q = 11.2 g × 4.2 J/g°C × 22°C

Q = 1034.88J

The ideal value of the C-0-C angle at atom O2 is<br> degrees.
Tcecarenko [31]
Ethers have a tetrahedral geometry i.e. oxygen is sp
3
hybridized. The C−O−C bond angle is 110
o
. Because of the greater electronegativity of O than C, the C−O bonds are slightly polar & are inclined to each other at an angle of 110
o
, resulting in a net dipole moment. This bond angle greater than that of tetrahedral bond angle of 109
o
28
′
. This is due to the fact that internal repulsion by the hydrocarbon part is greater than the external repulsion of the lone pair of oxygen.

What is primarily responsible for the surface tension of water?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

<em>cohesive forces between liquid molecules </em>

Explanation:

The cohesive forces between molecules down into a liquid are shared with all neighboring atoms. Those on the surface have no neighboring atoms above, and exhibit stronger attractive forces upon their nearest neighbors on the surface.
