Answer:

Lithospheric plates move apart under the ocean floor.

Explanation:

The mantel convection currents movement occurs it stretches the crust apart. The heat from convection currents makes the the Earth crust molecules less stable because the heat makes them move apart and shake on molecular level which makes crust more flexible.

Answer:

Lithospheric plates move apart under the floor.

Explanation:

Because over time they spread out causing "seafloor spreading".

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.

Explain where you would find the three different types of muscles (cardiac, smooth and skeletal) and how these different types o
yawa3891 [41]

Explanation: Skeletal muscle, attached to bones, is responsible for skeletal movements. The peripheral portion of the central nervous system (CNS) controls the skeletal muscles. Thus, these muscles are under conscious, or voluntary, control. The basic unit is the muscle fiber with many nuclei. These muscle fibers are striated (having transverse streaks) and each acts independently of neighboring muscle fibers.

What orbitals are used to form the 10 sigma bonds in propane (ch3ch2ch3)? Label each atom with the appropriate hybridization. Dr
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Mixing of pure orbitals having nearly equal energy to form equal number of completely new orbitals is said to be hybridization.

For the compound, CH_3CH_2CH_3 the electronic configuration of the atoms, carbon and hydrogen are:

Carbon (atomic number=6): In ground state= 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{2}

In excited state: 1s^{2}2s^{1}2p^{3}

Hydrogen (atomic number=1): 1s^{1}

All the bonds in the compound is single bond(\sigma-bond) that is they are formed by head on collision of the orbitals.

The structure of the compound is shown in the image.

The Carbon-Hydrogen bond is formed by overlapping of s-orbital of hydrogen to p-orbital of carbon.

In order to complete the octet the required number of electrons for carbon is 4 and for hydrogen is 1. So, the electron in 1s^{1} of hydrogen will overlap to the 2p^{3}-orbital of carbon.

Thus, the hybridization of Hydrogen is s-hybridization and the hybridization of Carbon is sp^{3}-hybridization.

The hybridization of each atom is shown in the image.
