What characterizes the calcite compensation depth (CCD), in terms of input and destruction (dissolution)?

Chemistry
1 answer:
saul85 [17]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

b. the rate of destruction is equal to the rate of carbonate input.

Explanation:

At the Calcite Compensation Depth(CCD) the rate of addition of calcite and dissolution of the mineral is the same. Below this depth, all calcite minerals are dissolved.

The CCD occurs at a depth of 3000-4000m. It varies from places to places within the ocean. Other factors play important roles in determining the CCD. Some of the factors are temperature and pressure.

For a spontaneous process, which of the following MUST be true?
Maru [420]

Answer:

C;  ΔSuniv>0

Explanation:

In this question, we want to select which of the options must be true.

What we should understand is that for a process to be spontaneous, the change in entropy must be greater than 0 i.e the change in entropy must be positive.

Looking at the options we have; option C is the correct answer.

Option B looks correct but it is wrong. This is because if change in universal entropy is greater than zero, then change in Gibbs free energy must be less than zero for spontaneity to occur
