What process must occur to cause sediment to stick together when forming sedimentary rock?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gennadij [26K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Compaction and Cementation

Dissolved minerals in the ground water precipitate (crystallize) from water in the pore spaces forming mineral crusts on the sedimentary grains, gradually cementing the sediments, thus forming a rock

Calculate the oxidation number of the iodine (I) in each compound: HIO4 = I2 = NaI = HIO3 =
Makovka662 [10]
1) in periodic acid (HIO₄), iodine has oxidation number +7, hydrogen has oxidation number +1, oxygen has -2, compound has neutral charge:
+1 + x + 4 · (-2) = 0.
x = +7.

2) in molecule of iodine (I₂), iodine has oxidation number 0, because iodine is nonpolar molecule.

3) in sodium iodide (NaI), iodine has oxidation number -1, sodium has oxidation number +1:
+1 + x = 0.
x = -1.

4) in iodic acid (HIO₃), iodine has oxidation number +5, hydrogen has oxidation number +1, oxygen has -2, compound has neutral charge:
+1 + x + 3 · (-2) = 0.
x = +5.

Convert 27.7 kilometers to centimeters.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2770000 cm.

Explanation:

1 kilometer = 1000 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeter

1 kilometer = 100*1000 cm

1 km = 100000 cm.

then,

27.7 kilometers = 2.77 × 10^6 centimeters

So, 27.7 kilometers = 27.7 × 100000

= 2.77 × 106 or 2770000 centimeters.

What element/compounds are used in the melting of ice?
Galina-37 [17]

The temperature of the air, pavement, and the type of ice-melt compound used will affect the rate at which the ice melts. There are many different ice-melt compounds available from traditional rock salt (sodium chloride) to ice-melt pellets (calcium chloride).

An electrochemical cell is powered by the half reactions shown below.
andrezito [222]
Reduction reactions are those reactions that reduce the oxidation number of a substance. Hence, the product side of the reaction must contain excess electrons. The opposite is true for oxidation reactions. When you want to determine the potential difference expressed in volts between the cathode and anode, the equation would be: E,reduction - E,oxidation. 

To cancel out the electrons, the e- in the reactions must be in opposite sides. To do this, you reverse the equation with the negative E0, then replacing it with the opposite sign. 

Pb(s) --> Pb2+ +2e-      E0 = +0.13 V
Ag+ + e-  ---> Ag           E0 = +0.80 V

Adding up the E0's would yield an overall electric cell potential of +0.93 V.
