What is the differences in the densities of the Continental crust and the oceanic crust and why are they different?

What Is The Differences In The Densities Of The Continental Crust And The Oceanic Crust And Why Are They

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Both oceanic crust and continental crust are less dense than the mantle, but oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. ... Because continental crust is less dense than oceanic crust it floats higher on the mantle, just like a piece of Styrofoam floats higher on the water than a piece of wood does

Calculate normality and tire of KOH solution , if CN H2 C2 O4 solution , that is nessesary for titration is 0.1050 mol/1 and the Volume is 5.0 ml ; the volume of KOH - solution is 4.5 ml

Answers

Answer:

Normality of KOH = 0.1062 N

Note: The given question is not clearly stated. A related question below is answered and explained;

What is the NORMALITY of a solution of KOH if 45.18 mL are required to neutralize 0.3g of pure oxalic acid H2C2O4 . 2H2O?

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction: 2KOH + H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O --> K₂C₂O₄ + 4H₂O

molar mass 0f KOH = 56 g/mol; molar mass of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O = 126 g/mol

Number of moles of in 0.3 g of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O = mass/molar mass

number of moles = 0.3 g / 126 g/mol = 0.0024 moles

From the equation of reaction, 2 moles of KOH are required to neutralize 1 mole of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O

Number of moles of KOH required to neutralize 0.0024 moles of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O = 2 * 0.0024 = 0.0048 moles

Molar concentration of 45.18 mL solution of KOH containing 0.0048 moles of  KOH = number of moles/volume (L)

molarity of KOH solution = (0.0048/45.18 mL) * (1000 mL/1 L) = 0.1062 mol/L

Normality = n * molarity

where is the number of moles of OH⁻ ions produces from  mole of KOH = 1

Normality of KOH = 1 * 0.1062

Normality of KOH = 0.1062 N

How many grams of NaCl would be required
to react with 346 mL of 0.607 M AgNO3
solution?

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 12.27 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NaCl are required = ?

Volume of AgNO₃ = 346 mL (346 mL× 1L/ 1000 mL = 0.346 L)

Molarity of AgNO₃ = 0.607 M

Solution:

Chemical equation:

NaCl  + AgNO₃     →    NaNO₃ + AgCl

Number of moles of AgNO₃:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

0.607 M = number of moles / 0.346 L

number of moles =  0.607 M × 0.346 L

number of moles =  0.21 mol

now we will compare the moles of NaCl and AgNO₃.

                       AgNO₃         :          NaCl        

                           1                :            1

                       0.21              :            0.21

Mass of NaCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.21 mol × 58.44 g/mol

Mass = 12.27 g

4 gramos de cafe soluble, 20 gramos de azucar y agua hasta completar 200 ml, Calcula la concentración (%m/v) de todas las sustancias que forman el refresco

Answers

Answer:

2 % de cafe, 20% de azucar, 100% de agua.

Explanation:

Un clásico problema de soluciones:

- Nuestros solutos son 4 g de cafe y 20 g de azúcar.

- en 200 mL de agua

Podemos asumir que los 200mL es el volumen de solución.

%m/v es un tipo de concentración que señala los gramos de soluto en 100 mL de solución.

% m/v de cafe →  (4/200) . 100 = 2 %

% m/v de azucar →  (20/200) . 100 = 20 %

Si tomamos al agua como sustancia que forma parte de la solución sería

(200/200) . 100 = 100 %

Lo que podríamos leer 100 g de agua en 100 mL de agua, dado que la densidad del agua es 1 g/mL

what would you need to do to calculate the molarity of 10g of NaCl in 2kg of water?
A. convert the 10 g of NaCl to Kg of NaCl
B. Convert the 10g of NaCl to moles of NaCl
C. Convert the 2kg of water to liters of water
D. Convert the 2kg of water to moles of water

Answers

Answer:

B) we will convert the 10 g of NaCl into moles.

Explanation:

Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / L of solution

we will convert the 10 g of NaCl into moles.

Number of moles of NaCl:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 10 g/ 58.44 gmol

Number of moles = 0.17 mol

1 Kg = 1 L

Molarity = 0.17 mol / 2 L

Molarity = 0.085 mol/L

Molarity = 0.085 M

Answer:

B. Convert the 10g of NaCl to moles of NaCl

how many grams of hydrogen are required to react completely with 400g nitrogen to form ammonia? Pls help

Answers

N2+3H2-->2NH3

first we find the number of nitrogen moles

the molar mass for N2 is 14+14=28g/mole

to find the number of moles we divide the mass by the molar mass

n=400/28=14.28 moles

for 1 mole of N2 we use 3 moles of H2, therefore for 14.28 moles of N2 we use 14.28*3=42.84 moles ofH2

to find the mass of H2 we multiply the number of moles by the molar mass

the molar mass of H2 is 2g/mole

2*42.84=85.68g of H2

Imagine that you could dive deep into the Atlantic Ocean where the South American plate and African plate meet at a plate boundary. What do you think you would see at the plate boundary? Would you see the mantle? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

At the plate boundary, there would be a divergent boundary where we can see a mid ocean ridge and a gap. We would be able to see the mantle because there would be a fissure from where magma will rise and solidify.    

Explanation:

Under the South American plate and African plate, there are currents that cause a divergent boundary. They create this boundary since they pull the tectonic plates apart, causing a mid-ocean ridge with an opening that allows the rising of the magma that was underneath. Once that the magma is out, it solidifies, and the currents will try to create another ridge to repeat the process.

When the plates are apart, the mantle that is beneath is exposed, and we can see the magma.

1) A 400g sample of alcohol (c = 2.43 J/g°C) at 16°C is mixed with 400g
of water (c = 4.19 J/g°C) at 85°C. What is the final temperature of the
mixture?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of alcohol = 400 g

Specific heat capacity of alcohol = 2.43 J/g°C

Initial temperature of alcohol = 16°C

Mass of water = 400 g

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.19 J/g°C

Initial temperature of water = 85°C

Final temperature of mixture = ?

Solution:

Equation:

m₁c₁ (T₂-T₁ ) = m₂c₂(T₂-T₁)

by putting values,

400 × 4.19  × (T₂ -  85°C) = 400 × 2.43  × (T₂ - 16°C)

1676  × (T₂ -  85°C) = 972 × (T₂ - 16°C)
