Summary: Astronomers have determined that some carbon-rich exoplanets, given the right circumstances, could be made of diamonds and silica.
Explanation:As missions like NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, TESS and Kepler continue to provide insights into the properties of exoplanets (planets around other stars), scientists are increasingly able to piece together what these planets look like, what they are made of, and if they could be habitable or even inhabited.
In a new study published recently in The Planetary Science Journal, a team of researchers from Arizona State University (ASU) and the University of Chicago have determined that some carbon-rich exoplanets, given the right circumstances, could be made of diamonds and silica.
"These exoplanets are unlike anything in our solar system," says lead author Harrison Allen-Sutter of ASU's School of Earth and Space Exploration.
Diamond exoplanet formation
When stars and planets are formed, they do so from the same cloud of gas, so their bulk compositions are similar. A star with a lower carbon to oxygen ratio will have planets like Earth, comprised of silicates and oxides with a very small diamond content (Earth's diamond content is about 0.001%).
But exoplanets around stars with a higher carbon to oxygen ratio than our sun are more likely to be carbon-rich. Allen-Sutter and co-authors Emily Garhart, Kurt Leinenweber and Dan Shim of ASU, with Vitali Prakapenka and Eran Greenberg of the University of Chicago, hypothesized that these carbon-rich exoplanets could convert to diamond and silicate, if water (which is abundant in the universe) were present, creating a diamond-rich composition.
Diamond-anvils and X-raysTo test this hypothesis, the research team needed to mimic the interior of carbide exoplanets using high heat and high pressure. To do so, they used high pressure diamond-anvil cells at co-author Shim's Lab for Earth and Planetary Materials.
First, they immersed silicon carbide in water and compressed the sample between diamonds to a very high pressure. Then, to monitor the reaction between silicon carbide and water, they conducted laser heating at the Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois, taking X-ray measurements while the laser heated the sample at high pressures.
As they predicted, with high heat and pressure, the silicon carbide reacted with water and turned into diamonds and silica.
Habitability and inhabitabilitySo far, we have not found life on other planets, but the search continues. Planetary scientists and astrobiologists are using sophisticated instruments in space and on Earth to find planets with the right properties and the right location around their stars where life could exist.
For carbon-rich planets that are the focus of this study, however, they likely do not have the properties needed for life.
While Earth is geologically active (an indicator habitability), the results of this study show that carbon-rich planets are too hard to be geologically active and this lack of geologic activity may make atmospheric composition uninhabitable. Atmospheres are critical for life as it provides us with air to breathe, protection from the harsh environment of space, and even pressure to allow for liquid water.
"Regardless of habitability, this is one additional step in helping us understand and characterize our ever- increasing and improving observations of exoplanets," says Allen-Sutter. "The more we learn, the better we'll be able to interpret new data from upcoming future missions like the James Webb Space Telescope and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to understand the worlds beyond on our own solar system."

So far, he spent 3 hours reading the first 165 pages. If Kamal continues to read at the same rate, how many more minutes will he need to finish the 198-page book?
Answer:
36 minutes
Explanation:
You take 165/3= 55 pages per hour.
Take 198-165 = 33 pages left of the book
Take 33/55 = .6 hrs to finish the book.
Take 60(minutes in an hour)*.6= 36 minutes
If a block has the mass of 15.00 grams and measurements of 5.00cm by 3.00cm by 2.00cm what is the volume of the block?
Answer:
Volume = 30cm³
Explanation:
A block is a geometrical figure and its volume, -look at the figure-, follows the equation:
Volume = Width*Length*Height
As the measurements of the block are 5.00cm, 3.00cm and 2.00cm, the volume is:
Volume = 5.00cm*2.00cm*3.00cm
Volume = 30cm³Which object has the lowest density

Find the exact value. tan(−300∘)
Explanation:
tan(-300) = tan(-300+360) = tan (60)
here we added 360 degree. where by adding 360 +or- (n×360) to the any angle nothing will change as they called equivalent angles
equivalent angles is by adding +or- n×360 to any angle is equivalent to that angle so tan(-300) = tan(60) then we will calculate tan(60) on the calculator
A box has dimensions of 2.0 cm time 4.0 cm times 8.0 cm, what is the volume of the box in milliliters?
Answer:
64 mL.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the dimension of box is:
Dimension = 2 cm × 4 cm × 8 cm
Thus, the volume of the box is:
Volume = 2 cm × 4 cm × 8 cm
Volume = 64 cm³
Finally, we shall convert 64 cm³ to mL. This can be obtained as follow:
Recall:
1 cm³ = 1 mL
Therefore,
64 cm³ = 64 cm³ × 1 mL / 1 cm³
64 cm³ = 64 mL
Therefore, the volume of the box in millilitres (mL) is 64 mL.

Which describes a property of water that allows plants to transfer it from their roots to their leaves?
O Water exhibits weak adhesion and cohesion, which allows capillary action to occur.
O Water exhibits strong adhesion and cohesion, which allows capillary action to occur.
Water has low surface tension, which prevents capillary action from occurring.
Water has high surface tension, which prevents capillary action from occurring.
Answer:
B water exhibits weak adhesion and cohesion which allows capillary action to occur.
Explanation:
took the test
Water exhibits strong adhesion and cohesion, which allows capillary action to occur.
What property of water allows it to move through a plant?The cohesive properties of water (hydrogen bonding between adjacent water molecules) allow the column of water to be 'pulled' up through the plant as water molecules are evaporating at the surfaces of leaf cells. This process has been termed the Cohesion Theory of Sap Ascent in plants.
What are adhesion and cohesion?Cohesion and adhesion are two water properties that describe how water molecules interact with each other. and how water molecules interact with other things like leaves or even you. Cohesion means that water likes to stick to itself and adhesion means that water likes to stick to other things.

What is the specific heat of a substance that absorbs 228 joules of heat when a sample of 706 g of the substance increases in tempature from 26.0 c to 88.8 c
Answer:
[tex]c=5.14\ J/kg ^{\circ} C[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
Heat absorbed by a sample, Q = 228 J
Mass of a sample, m = 706 g = 0.706 kg
Initial temperature is 26 °C and final temperature is 88.8°C
We need to find the heat absorbed by the sample. The heat absorbed by an object is given by :
[tex]Q=mc\Delta T\\\\\text{Where c is specific heat of sample}\\\\c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{228\ J}{0.706\ kg(88.8-26)^{\circ} C}\\\\c=5.14\ J/kg ^{\circ} C[/tex]
So, the specific heat of the sample is [tex]5.14\ J/kg ^{\circ} C[/tex].
