What is the meaning of plate tectonics

Chemistry
2 answers:
hodyreva [135]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest.

What is the overall voltage for the nonspontaneous redox reaction involving
Ann [662]

Answer:

Answer D => E°(Mg°/Cu⁺²) = 0.34 + 2.37 = 2.71v

Explanation:

(Oxidation) =>  Mg°(s) => Mg⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻    E°(Mg°/Mg⁺²) = -2.37 v

(Reduction) => Cu⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ => Cu°(s)     E°(Cu⁺²/Cu°) = +0.34 v

________________________________________________

Net Rxn => Mg°(s) + Cu⁺²(aq) => Mg⁺²(aq) + Cu°(s)

Std Cell Potential (25°C/1Atm) = E°(Redn) = E°(Oxidn) = +0.34v - (-2.37v)

= 0.34v + 2.37v = 2.72v

It takes to break an iodine-iodine single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which an iodine-iodine single bond
Zolol [24]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

It takes 151 kJ/mol to break an iodine-iodine single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which an iodine-iodine single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:  793 nm

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength of light is given by Planck's equation, which is:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of the light  = 151 kJ= 151000 J   (1kJ=1000J)

N= moles = 1 = 6.023\times 10^{23}

h = Planck's constant  = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light  = 3\times 10^8m/s

\lambda = wavelength of light  = ?

Putting in the values:

151000J=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js\times 3\times 10^8m/s}{\lambda}

{\lambda}=7.93\times 10^{-7}m=793nm    1m=10^{-9}nm

Thus  the maximum wavelength of light for which an iodine-iodine single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 793 nm

What is the weight of dark matter​
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Knowing this, researchers from the University of Southern Denmark decided to investigate the size of these hypothetical hidden particles. According to the team, dark matter could weigh more than 10 billion billion (10^9) times more than a proton.

Explanation:

If this is true, a single dark matter particle could weigh about 1 microgram, which is about one-third the mass of a human cell (a typical human cell weighs about 3.5 micrograms), and right under the threshold for a particle to become a black hole.

An iron bar of mass 841 g cools from 84°C to 7°C. Calculate the heat released (in kilojoules) by the metal.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

28.75211 kj

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron bar = 841 g

Initial temperature = 84°C

Final temperature = 7°C

Heat released = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

specific heat capacity of iron is 0.444 j/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 7°C - 84°C

ΔT = -77°C

By putting values,

Q = 841 g × 0.444 j/g.°C × -77°C

Q = 28752.11 j

In Kj:

28752.11 j × 1 kJ / 1000 J

28.75211 kj
