A clastic sedimentary rock is composed of silicate minerals and rock fragments. They are transported by moving fluids such as sedimentation due to gravity and are deposited in the area where it stays. They are composed mostly of feldspar, quartz, rock (lithic) fragments, clay minerals and mica.

Answer: Erosion

Explanation:

weathering and movement of the resulting sediments is called erosion. But sedimentary rock formation can begins from igneous, metamorphic and also other sedimentary rocks. When these rocks are exposed at the earth’s surface, they begin the long slow but unceasingly process of becoming sedimentary rock.

Also Sedimentation, burial and lithification are the processes that transform weathering products into sedimentary rocks.

Sediments and the environments in which they form are fundamentally divided into 2; which are clastic and chemical:

1. Clastic sediments are made of physically transported and deposited particles.

2. Chemical sediments are from solution, organically or inorganically; biochemical sediment more specifically refers to minerals grown from solution by organisms.

The equation below shows lithium reacting with nitrogen to produce lithium nitride. 6Li + N2 mc007-1.jpg 2Li3N If 12 mol of lith
andrew11 [14]

Answer is: 4.0 mol of lithium nitride would be produced.

Balanced chemical reaction: 6Li + N₂ → 2Li₃N.

n(Li) = 12 mol; amount of substance.

From chemical reaction: n(Li) : n(Li₃N) = 6 : 2 (3 : 1).

n(Li₃N) = n(Li) ÷ 3.

n(Li₃N) = 12 mol ÷ 3.

n(Li₃N) = 4 mol; amount of lithium nitride.

Gasoline contains only hydrogen and carbon atoms, yet nitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide are produced when gasoline burns. What
White raven [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The source of the nitro- gen and oxygen atoms is from the atmosphere

Explanation:

When gasoline burns oxygen from the atmosphere supports the combustion reaction.

For example the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle pulls in air from the surrounding atmosphere to make use of the oxygen in aiding the combustion of the gasoline to drive the pistons that ultimately moves the vehicle. The air from which the oxygen is absorbed also contains more amount of Nitrogen by percentage than oxygen. The nitrogen therefore enters into the combustion reaction that eventually produces nitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide

erastova [34]

Answer:

Grignard reagent is a chemical compound having a halogen group along with magnesium and organic group.

Explanation:

When cyclopentanol reacts with thiogyl chloride, it gives chlorocyclopentane as the product which on further reaction with magnesium metal gives Grigmard reagent as the main product.

A Grignard reagent is a chemical compound which have the chemical formula of R−Mg−X. Here, R is an organic group, Mg is magnesium and X is halogen. The organic group may be aryl or alkyl.

The reaction and the final product is given below at the attachment.
