The idea that the earth is divided into a number of small plates that float on the mantle and slide,collide,and slip past each other. Law or Theories

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Theories

Explanation:

It is theories because it was a generalistee abstract or thinking generalising the principle of fact about Earth tectonic plates ,it was formulated and concluded as plate tectonic theories after many findings. The theories conclude that the Earth has an outer layer called lithosphere and lies overly a plastic layer called asthenosphere. The lithosphere is divided into several plates and they move close to each other where they diverge, converge or slip over one another.

What specific portion of the gill is used to increase surface area though which gas (oxygen and carbon dioxide) exchange take place?

Answers

Answer:

gill lamellae

Explanation:

Gills  in fishes are structures that permit fish to carry out gaseous exchange in water.  Fishes exchange gases  such as oxygen and carbon dioxide using gills.

Fish gills carry out their activity mainly through its major component called the  gill lamellae. These are comb-like filaments which help increase the surface area of the gills in order to facilitate gaseous exchange

A piece of metal has a mass of 0.650 kilograms, has a width of 0.136 meters, and has a length of 0.0451 meters.Part A: If the metal’s volume is 291 cm3, what is the height of the metal in centimeters? (The width & length values given above are in a different unit!)

Part B: What is the density of this piece of metal?

Answers

Answer:

height = 4.74 cm

density = 2.23 g/ cm³

Explanation:

Mass of metal = 0.650 kg (650 g)

Width = 0.136 m    

Length = 0.0451 m  

Volume of metal = 291 cm³

Height in cm = ?

density of metal =?

Solution:

Width = 0.136 m    (0.136 m×100 cm/1m = 13.6 cm)

Length = 0.0451 m  (0.0451 m×100 cm/1m = 4.51 cm)

First of all we will calculate the height:

Volume = height× width× length

291 cm³ =      h     × 13.6 cm × 4.51 cm

291 cm³ =      h     × 61.34 cm²

h = 291 cm³ / 61.34 cm²

h = 4.74 cm

Density:

d = m/v

d = 650 g/291 cm³

d = 2.23 g/ cm³

In Fig 1-2, how should the length indicated by the arrow along the ruler be recorded?

Answers

Answer:

C. 0.35cm

Explanation:

The length indicated by the arrow along the ruler should recorded be recorded as "0.35cm".

This is correct because when counting the measurement on the ruler, the first line on the ruler is 0.1cm, the second line is 0.2cm, and so on. The spaces between each line is 0.05cm. So, the arrow is pointing on the space between 0.3cm and 0.4cm.

Therefore, 0.3cm + 0.05cm = 0.35cm.(answer).

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 0.050 mol of NaCN with enough water to make a liter of solution

Answers

Answer:

pH = 11

Explanation:

The equilibrium of a weak base as NaCN in water is:

NaCN(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ OH⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq) + HCN(aq)

And kb, the equilibrium constant, is:

Kb = [OH⁻] [HCN] / [NaCN]

Where Kb of NaCN is 2.04x10⁻⁵

In the beginning, the [NaCN] is 0.050mol / L = 0.050M.

Both [OH⁻] and [HCN] are produced from this equilibrium, and its concentration is X, that is:

2.04x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.050M]

1.02x10⁻⁶ = X²

X = 1x10⁻³ = [OH⁻]

As pOH = - log [OH⁻]

pOH = 3.00

And pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 11

What is the most highly populated rotational level of Cl2 (i) 25deg C and (ii) 100 deg C? Take B=0.244cm-1.This question should not be resubmitted, it is a textbook question from the Atkins physical chemistry txtbook. 10 e.

Answers

Answer:

i

[tex]J_{m} = 20 [/tex]

ii

[tex]J_{m} = 22.5 [/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The first temperatures is [tex]T_1 =  25^oC =  25 +273 =298 \ K[/tex]

   The second temperature is  [tex]T_2 =  100^oC =  100 +273 = 373 \ K[/tex]

Generally the equation for  the most highly populated rotational energy level is mathematically represented as

     [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{RT}{2B}]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Here R is the gas constant with value [tex]R =8.314 \ J\cdot K^{-1} \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex]

Also  

      B is given as [tex]B=\ 0.244 \ cm^{-1}[/tex]

   Generally the energy require per mole to move 1 cm is  12 J /mole

So   [tex]0.244 \ cm^{-1}[/tex]  will require x J/mole

           [tex]x =  0.244 *  12[/tex]

=>          [tex]x =  2.928 \ J/mol [/tex]

So at the first temperature

     [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{8.314 * 298  }{2*  2.928 }]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - 0.5 [/tex]

=>  [tex]J_{m} = 20 [/tex]

So at the second temperature

           [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{8.314 * 373  }{2*  2.928 }]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - 0.5 [/tex]

=>  [tex]J_{m} = 22.5 [/tex]

If you collect 5.74 mL of O 2 at 298 K and 1.00 atm over 60.0 seconds from a reaction solution of 5.08 mL, what is the initial rate of the reaction

Answers

Answer:

7.71 × 10⁻⁴ M/s

Explanation:

The initial rate of the reaction can be expressed by using the formula:

[tex]\dfrac{\Delta [O_2]}{\Delta t}[/tex]

where the number of moles of O₂ = [tex]\dfrac{PV}{RT}[/tex]

where;

Pressue P = 1.00 atm

Volume V =5.74mL =  (5.74 /1000) L

Rate R = 0.082 L atm/mol.K

Temperature = 298 K

[tex]= \dfrac{1.00 \ atm \times \dfrac{5.74 }{1000}L}{0.082 \ L \ atm/mol.K \times 298 K}[/tex]

= 2.35 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Δ[O₂] = [tex]\dfrac{moles \ produced - initial \ mole}{\dfrac{5.08 }{1000}L }[/tex]

Δ[O₂] = [tex]\dfrac{2.35 \times 10^{-4} M - 0 M}{\dfrac{5.08 }{1000}}[/tex]

Δ[O₂]  = 0.04626 M

The initial rate = [tex]\dfrac{\Delta [O_2]}{\Delta t}[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{0.04626}{60}[/tex]

= 7.71 × 10⁻⁴ M/s

a. Describe the molecule chlorine dioxide, CIO in terms of three possible resonance structures.
b. Do any of these resonance structures satisfy the octet rule for every atom in the molecule? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The compound ClO2 has 19 valence electrons.  ClO2 is a bent molecule with tetrahedral electron pair geometry but has two  lone pairs of electrons. This is indicated by the presence of four electron pairs on the outermost shell of the central atom.

The molecule has an odd number of valence electrons, hence, it is generally regarded as a paramagnetic radical. None of the proposed Lewis structures for the molecule is satisfactory because none of them obeys the octet rule.

From the images attached, one can easily see that the electron dots around the oxygen and chlorine atoms does not satisfy the octet rule in all the resonance structures shown.

A balloon contains 1.1 L of gas at a pressure of 0.80 atm. How will the volume
change if the pressure is increased to 2.0 atm?

Answers

Answer:

Final volume  = 0.44 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of balloon = 1.1 L

Initial pressure = 0.80 atm

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 2.0 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

0.80 atm × 1.1 L = 2.0 atm × V₂

V₂ = 0.88 atm. L/ 2.0 atm

V₂ = 0.44 L

When 2.16g of H2 reacts with excess O2 by the following equation, 258 kJ of heat are released. What is the change of enthalpy associated with the reaction of 1.00 mol of hydrogen gas? 2H2+O2⟶2H2O

Answers

Answer:

-241 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction of hydrogen with excess oxygen to form water.

2 H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2 H₂O

When 2.16g of hydrogen reacts with excess oxygen, 258 kJ of heat are released, that is, Q = -258 kJ. Considering that the molar mass of hydrogen is 2.02 g/mol, the change of enthalpy associated with the reaction of 1.00 mol of hydrogen gas is:

ΔH° = -258 kJ/2.16 g × (2.02 g/1.00 mol) = -241 kJ/mol
