Answer:

Fossils are remains or traces from ancient life's that is most likely buried in rocks anywhere in the world. Fossils are basically bones, teeth, shells, nests, leaf impressions, and footprints. That is technically explaining what our planet was like long ago. Some dinosaur fossils have been found. Paleontologists find them almost everywhere. If you don't know what Paleontologists are, they're basically people who study fossils. A lot of fossils are found in sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary is a rock that has been formed from things like sand, mud, and many other kinds of rocks.

Hope this helps.

What is the volume in liters of hydrogen gas that would be produced by the reaction of 40.0 g of Al with excess HCl at STP accor

DaniilM [7]

The volume in liters of Hydrogen gas = 49.28 L

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The reaction equation is the chemical formula of reagents and product substances

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products

Reaction

2 Al (s) + 6 HCl (aq) → 2 AlCl₃ (aq) + 3 H₂ (g)

mol Al :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{Ar}=\dfrac{40}{27}=1.481$

mol H₂ :

$\tt \dfrac{3}{2}\times 1.481=2.2$

At STP, 1 mol =22.4 L

so the volume of hydrogen :

$\tt 2.2 \times 22.4=49.28~L$

Use the reaction 1₂(s) = 12(g), AH = 62.4 kJ/mol, AS = 0.145 kJ/(mol-K), for

Sati [7]

The Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 430 K. Hence, Option (C) is correct.

<h3></h3><h3>What is Spontaneous reaction ?</h3>

Reactions are favorable when they result in a decrease in enthalpy and an increase in entropy of the system.

When both of these conditions are met, the reaction occurs naturally.

Spontaneous reaction is a reaction that favors the formation of products at the conditions under which the reaction is occurring.

According to Gibb's equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

ΔG = Gibbs free energy

ΔH = enthalpy change = +62.4 kJ/mol

ΔS = entropy change = +0.145 kJ/molK

T = temperature in Kelvin

ΔG = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous
ΔG = -ve, reaction is spontaneous
ΔG = 0, reaction is in equilibrium

ΔH - TΔS = 0 for reaction to be spontaneous

T = ΔH / ΔS

Here,

T = 500K

Thus the Reaction is spontaneous when temperature is 500 K.

How do the strength and the cohesion of clay-rich regolith or soil change with the addition of water?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Water lowers the strength and cohesion of clay-rich regolith or soil.

Explanation:

Water can seep into the soil or clay-rich regolith and replace the air in the pore space of the soil or regolith. Water will completely surrounds all the grains of the clay-rich regolith and breaks the bonds in between the grains, that is eliminating all grain to grain contact of the regolith. When the regolith becomes saturated with water, the angle of repose is reduced to very small values and the regolith tends to loose its form.
