Why does pressure build up around the plates?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago

Answer: The correct answer is

Earthquakes occur along fault lines, cracks in Earth's crust where tectonic plates meet. They occur where plates are subducting, spreading, slipping, or colliding. As the plates grind together, they get stuck and pressure builds up. Finally, the pressure between the plates is so great that they break loose.

Answer:

0,0,0,0

Explanation:

The formal charge formula:

Formal charge= Valence electrons - lone pair electrons - 0.5 shared electrons

So:

Hydrogen: 1 elec. of valence and shares two electrons with the O

Formal charge= 1 - 0 - 0.5*2=0

Oxygen: 6 elec. of valence, 2 lone pairs and shares two electrons with the H and two with the F

Formal charge= 6 - 4 - 0.5*4=0

Fluorine: 7 elec. of valence, 6 lone pairs and shares two electrons with the O

Formal charge= 7 - 6 - 0.5*2=0

Oxygen: 6 elec. of valence, 3 lone pairs

Formal charge= 6 - 6 - 0.5*0=0

Note: the dative bond between F and the second O doesn't count as shared electrons.
