Geological settings whereby there is melting of rock as well as formation of sediments can be attributed to Plate tectonics .

Plate tectonics can be regarded as  theory which explained the Earth's outer shell and how its been divided into solid rocks as well as slabs and its often referred to as Plate.

  • Plate tectonics explained that there is a large-scale motion  plates which   Earth's lithosphere is made up.
  • Tectonic processes started about 3.3 and 3.5 billion years ago.
  • Through the generation of Tectonic plate, there are melting of rocks as well as generation of sediments
  • The types of boundaries that exist between those tectonic plates can be categorized into 4, base on the the movement of the plates, and these are;
  1. divergent boundaries
  2. convergent boundaries
  3. transform fault boundaries
  4. plate boundary zones

Therefore, plate tectonic  gives explanation about Earth's outer shell.

Identify the missing daughter nucleus in the β– emission decay of 106ru below.
kotykmax [81]
Answer is: <span>the missing daughter nucleus is rhodium (Rh).</span>

Nuclear reaction: ¹⁰⁶Ru → ¹⁰⁶Rh + e⁻(electron) + ve(electron antineutrino).

Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus.

<span>In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino.
In beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.</span>

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of copper. 63cu has a mass of 62.9296 amu. 65cu has a mass of 64.9278 amu. determine
SSSSS [86.1K]
1) You need to use the atomic mass of copper.


You can find it in a periodic table. It is 63.546 amu.


2) The atomic mass is the weigthed mass of the different isotopes.


This is, the atomic mass of one element is the atomic mass of each isotope times its corresponding abundance:


=> atomic mass of the element = abundance isotope 1 * atomic mass isotope 1 + abundance isotope 2 *  atomic mass isotope 2 + ....+abundance isotope n * atomic mass isotope n.


3) The statement tells there are two isotopes so the abundance of one is x and the abundance of the other is 1 - x


=> 63.546 amu = x * 62.9296 amu + (1-x)*64.9278


=> 63.546 = 62.9296x + 64.9278 - 64.9278x


=> 64.9278x - 62.9296 = 64.9278 - 63.546


=> 1.9982x = 1.3818


=> x = 1.3818 / 1.9982 = 0.6915 = 69.15%


=> 1 - x = 1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085 = 30.85%


Answer:


Cu-63 69.15%;


Cu-65 : 30.85%

When acid (X) reacts with base (Y) to produce Mg3(PO4)2- what are X and Y
kow [346]

Mg3(PO4)2 - Mg²⁺ forms base

PO4³⁻ forms acid

Ma(OH)2 is a base(Y).

H3PO4 is an acid(X).

3Mg(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 ---> Mg3(PO4)2 + 3H2O
