Answer:

Heat from deep in the Earth/from Earths core.

Explanation:

Plates at our planet's surface move because of the intense heat in the Earth's core that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move. It moves in a pattern called a convection cell that forms when warm material rises, cools, and eventually sink down. Convection is the heat-driven circulation of a fluid. In the mantle, heat from deeper in the Earth causes the overlying mantle to circulate. The mantle can circulate because it contains a little magma (molten rock); it behaves like a very hot mush. Mantle convection currents move very, very, slowly.

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

1. The water here is the solvent, and the 'sugar and fruit specific chemicals' are considered the solute. That is as the solute is the component dissolved in the solvent.

2. The collision theory states that the greater the collisions, the greater the rate of reaction. When powdered sugar is placed in the water (solvent) it occupies more surface area, resulting in more collisions that speed up the rate of reaction, compared to a cube of sugar - that occupies less surface area. Therefore, the powdered sugar dissolved faster.

3. Molarity describes the number of moles of a substance per unit of volume. The standard unit of volume is liter, giving you the standard units (mol/l). Molality describes the number of moles per unit of mass, typically kilograms (mol/kg).

The concentration of a solution can be given in moles of solute dissolved per kilogram of solvent for molality, and moles of solute dissolved in liters of solvent for molarity. Molality is generally used for concentration.

Calculate the molality of a solution prepared by dissolving 25.0 g of sodium chloride (NaCl) in 625 g of water

umka2103 [35]

Answer: m= 0.69 m or mol/kg

Explanation: Molality is expressed as moles per unit kilograms of solvent or m= n / kg

First convert 25.0 g NaCl to moles

25.0 g NaCl x 1 mole NaCl / 58 g NaCl

= 0.43 moles NaCl

Next convert 625 g H2O to kilograms

625 g H2O x 1 kg / 1000 g H2O

= 0.625 kg H2O
