Answer: Subduction zone

Explanation: How do we know the subduction zone exists here? Mostly because of geological data left behind by subduction zone earthquakes, known as megathrust earthquakes. Subduction zones are the only type of plate meeting that can cause earthquakes greater than magnitude 8.5, according to the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network.

In the reaction 2H2O (l) + 2Cl– (aq) → H2 (g) + Cl2 (g) + 2OH– (aq), which substance is oxidized?
pashok25 [27]

F. None of the above [Cl^(-) is oxidized]

<em>No Cl atoms are available</em> to be oxidized, only Cl^(-)ions

2Cl^(-) → Cl_2 + 2e^(-)

The substance that <em>loses electrons</em> is oxidized.

Remember <em>OIL</em> RIG (<em>O</em>xidation<em> I</em>s <em>L</em>oss of electrons) and

<em>LEO</em> the lion says GER (<em>L</em>oss of Electrons is <em>O</em>xidation).

Order the various instruments used for measuring water in this experiment (balances, graduated cylinders, beaker and pipette) fr
lara [203]

Answer:

(Most accurate) pippete>graduated cylinder>beaker>balance (Least accurate)

Explanation:

  1. <em>Most accurate. A pipette prived the most accurate method for delivering a known volume of solution, for example, a 10mL transfer pipette has an accuracy of ±0.02mL</em>
  2. A graduated cylinder is specifically used to deliver a known volume, its typical accuracy is ±1%, this means that a 100ml graduated cylinder is accurate to ±1mL.
  3. A beaker is a multipurpose cylindrical glass mainly used to hold liquids. Even though they are graduated, these marks are an estimation, the beaker's accuracy is around 10%.
  4. Least accurate. A balance measures an object's mass, even though water's density is close to 1, a balance is not the ideal equipment to measure volume, its capacity usually goes between 100-200grams and can measure mass to the nearest ±0.01mg to ±1mg.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
