Continental plates are much thicker that Oceanic plates. At the convergent boundaries the continental plates are pushed upward and gain thickness. The rocks and geological layers are much older on continental plates than in the oceanic plates. The Continental plates are much less dense than the Oceanic plates.

If a compound contain 40% sulphur and 59% oxygen ,find its empirical formula.
elixir [45]

Answer:

SO3

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

S = 40%

O = 59%

To obtain the empirical formula, do the following:

Divide the above by their molar mass as shown below:

S = 40/32 = 1.25

O = 59/16 = 3.69

Next, divide by the smallest as shown below:

S = 1.25/125 = 1

O = 3.69/1.25 = 3

Therefore, the empirical formula is SO3

5. A gas occupies 2000. Lat 100.0 K and exerts a pressure of 100.0 kPa. What volume will
Anna [14]

Answer:

4000 L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Initial volume (V1) = 2000 L.

Initial temperature (T1) = 100 K.

Initial pressure (P1) = 100 kPa.

Final temperature (T2) = 400 K.

Final pressure (P2) = 200 kPa.

Final volume (V2) =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the new volume of the gas.

The new volume of the gas can be obtained by using the general gas equation as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

100 x 2000/100 = 200 x V2/400

Cross multiply to express in linear form.

100 x 200 x V2 = 100 x 2000 x 400

Divide both side by 100 x 200

V2 = (100 x 2000 x 400)/(100 x 200)

V2 = 4000 L

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 4000 L

What is the estimated effective nuclear charge, Z eff, experienced by an electron in a 3p orbital of a chlorine atom?
mojhsa [17]
Effective nuclear charge is the charge felt by valence electrons of multi-electron atom taking into consideration the number of shielding electrons that surround the nucleus.
To calculate Z eff for electron we use this formula :
Z eff = Z - S where Z is the number of protons in nucleus and S is the average amount of electron density between the nucleus and electron in consideration
so Z eff = 17 - 10 (core electrons) = 7 
So the correct answer is C
