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.

If 3 moles of a compound use 12 J of energy in a reaction, what is the Hreaction in kJ/mol
igomit [66]

Answer:

\Delta _RH=4x10^{-3}\frac{kJ}{mol}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the molar enthalpy of reaction is obtained by dividing the involved energy by the reacting moles:

\Delta _RH=\frac{12J}{3mol} =4\frac{J}{mol}

Thus, it is important to notice that the compound "uses" the energy, it means that it absorbs the energy, for that reason the sign is positive. Moreover, computing the result in kJ/mol we finally obtain:

\Delta _RH=4\frac{J}{mol}*\frac{1kJ}{1000J} =4x10^{-3}\frac{kJ}{mol}

Best regards.

Use the reaction given below to solve the problem that follows: Calculate the mass in grams of aluminum oxide produced by the re
bearhunter [10]

Answer:  28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}   

\text{Moles of} Al=\frac{15.0g}{27g/mol}=0.556moles

The balanced chemical equuation is:

4Al+3O_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3  

According to stoichiometry :

4 moles of Al produce == 2 moles of Al_2O_3

Thus 0.556 moles of Al will produce=\frac{2}{4}\times 0.556=0.278moles  of Al_2O_3

Mass of Al_2O_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.278moles\times 102g/mol=28.4g

Thus 28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal.

noname [10]

Answer:

Option B:Publishing scientific journals

Explanation:

We are told that Lindsey is trying to gain credibility for her studies.

Since she completed her experiment and discussed her finding with colleagues, the most logical next step would be to publish scientific journals. This is because the other options given are not steps that should be taken because she has completed the research and therefore has no need to speak at a conference next nor even create new charts which they must have done during the research. No need for her to make sure the topic is popular.

Option B is correct
