Is exposure to oxygen a type of mechanical weathering

Chemistry

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.

What is the mole fraction of solute in a 3.19 m aqueous solution?
Bumek [7]
Molality= mol/ Kg

if we assume that we have 1 kg of water, we have 3.19 moles of solute. 

the formula for mole fraction --> mole fraction= mol of solule/ mol of solution

1) if we have 1 kg of water which is same as 1000 grams of water. 

2) we need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water 

molar mass of H₂O= (2 x 1.01) + 16.0 = 18.02 g/mol

1000 g (1 mol/ 18.02 grams)= 55.5 mol

3) mole of solution= 55.5 moles + 3.19 moles= 58.7 moles of solution

4) mole fraction= 3.19 / 58.7= 0.0543

After 15 minutes, 30 g of a sample of polonium-218 remain unchanged. If the original sample had a mass of 960 g, what is the hal
Keith_Richards [23]
Q1. The answer is 3 minutes.

Let's first calculate the remaining amount in percent:
If 960g is 100 percent (starting amount), 30 g is how many percents:
960 g : 100% = 30 g : x
x = 30 g * 100% / 960 g = 3.125% = 0.03125

Now, using the formula to calculate the number of half-lives:
(1/2)ⁿ = x,
where
x is the remaining amount: x = 0.03125
n is the number of half-lives
1/2 stands for half-life.

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.03125
⇒ n*log(1/2) = log(0.03125) 
    n = log(0.03125)/log(1/2) = log(0.03125)/log(0.5) = -1.505/-0.301 ≈ 5

The number of half-lives is 5.
Now, <span>the number of half-lives (n) is a quotient of total time elapsed (T) and length of half-life (L):
n = T/L
We know:
n = 5
T = 15 min
L = ?

Thus
L = T/n
L = 15 min/5 = 3 minutes

Q2. Filtration should be chosen.
Filtration and distillation are used to separate mixtures - filtration for the separation of heterogeneous mixtures and </span>distillation for the separation of homogeneous mixtures. Imagine that your pile of soil is a mixture. It consists of different components (the leaves, acorns, twigs), so it is the heterogeneous mixture. Therefore, to separate the leaves, acorns, twigs you will use filtration.
