When two plates with continental crust converge, why are neither of them subducted
Neither plate subducts because the crust have approximately the same density. Instead, the rocks are smashed together causing them to recrystallize due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates.
Consider the reaction.

At equilibrium, the concentrations of the different species are as follows.
[H2O] = 0.077 M
[Cl2O] = 0.077 M
[HClO] = 0.023 M
What is the equilibrium constant for the reaction at this temperature?
0.089
0.26

Answer:
0.089.
Explanation:
For the equilibrium reaction:Cl₂O + H₂O ⇄ 2HClO,
Kc = [HClO]²/[Cl₂O][H₂O].
[H₂O] = 0.077 M , [Cl₂O] = 0.077 M , [HClO] = 0.023 M.
∴ Kc = [HClO]²/[Cl₂O][H₂O] = (0.023 M)²/(0.077 M)(0.077 M) = 0.08922 ≅ 0.089.

A compound is used as a food additive. The compound has a molar mass of 176.124 grams/mole. A 692.5-gram sample undergoes decomposition, producing 283.4 grams of carbon, 31.7 grams of hydrogen, and 377.4 grams of oxygen. What is the molecular formula of the compound?
A. C3H4O3
B. C4H8O4
C. C6H6O6
D. C6H8O6
E. C6H8O8
Here we have to get the correct molecular formula of the compound.
The molecular formula of the compound is C₆H₆O₆ i.e. option C.
Let assume, the empirical formula of the compound is [tex](CHO)_{n}[/tex].
The given molar mass of the compound is 176.124 g/mole.
The percent of carbon in the compound is [tex]\frac{283.4}{692.5}[/tex]×100 = 40.924.
The percent of hydrogen in the compound is [tex]\frac{31.7}{692.5}[/tex]×100 = 4.577.
The percent of oxygen in the compound is [tex]\frac{377.4}{692.5}[/tex]×100 = 54.498.
Now the ratio of the atomic number in the compound for carbon is [tex]\frac{40.924}{12}[/tex] = 3.410
Now the ratio of the atomic number in the compound for hydrogen is [tex]\frac{4.577}{1}[/tex] = 4.577
Now the ratio of the atomic number in the compound for oxygen is [tex]\frac{54.498}{16}[/tex] = 3.406
So, the C, H and O lowest ratio is [tex]\frac{3.410}{3.406}[/tex] = 1, [tex]\frac{4.577}{3.406}[/tex] = 1 and [tex]\frac{3.406}{3.406}[/tex] = 1
Thus the empirical formula of the compound is [tex][CH_{1}O] _{n}[/tex] (where n = integer.
12n + 1n + 16n = 176.24
29n = 176.24
n = 6 (approx)
Thus the molecular formula of the compound is C₆H₆O₆.
Final answer:
By calculating the number of moles of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and deriving the ratio among them, it is determined that the molecular formula of the compound with a molar mass of 176.124 grams/mole is C6H8O6 (D).
Explanation:
To find the molecular formula of the compound used as a food additive with a molar mass of 176.124 grams/mole from the given decomposition data, we first need to calculate the number of moles of each element present in the given sample.
For carbon: (283.4 g) / (12.0 g/mol) = 23.62 moles
For hydrogen: (31.7 g) / (1.0 g/mol) = 31.7 moles
For oxygen: (377.4 g) / (16.0 g/mol) = 23.59 moles
Next, we divide by the smallest number of moles to get the atom ratio.
C: 23.62 / 23.59 ≈ 1
H: 31.7 / 23.59 ≈ 1.34
O: 23.59 / 23.59 = 1
The ratio of hydrogen is not a whole number, so we multiply all ratios by the smallest whole number that gives us whole number ratios for each element, which in this case would be 3 (since 1.34 is approximately 4/3).
After multiplying, the moles of each element become:
C: 1 x 3 = 3
H: 1.34 x 3 ≈ 4
O: 1 x 3 = 3
Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C3H4O3, and the molecular formula is the same as the empirical formula because the molar mass of C3H4O3 (3(12.0) + 4(1.0) + 3(16.0) = 88.0 g/mol) is half that of the given molar mass. Therefore, the molecular formula must be C6H8O6, which is twice the empirical formula.
The correct molecular formula of the compound is D. C6H8O6.

Which process must occur for a muscle to be able to relax? A. The concentration of calcium in the myofibril must decrease. B. The amount of ATP in the neuromuscular junction must increase. C. a nerve must initiate an action potential in the muscle fiber. D. Myosin and actin must attach to each other.
The correct option is A. which is the concentration of calcium in the myofibril must decrease.
Explanation:Calcium allows the actin, myosin, and ATP to interact, causing cross bridge formation and muscle contraction. Muscle relaxation occurs when calcium is pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, away from the actin and myosin. When calcium moves in this way, the actin and myosin cannot interact, and the muscle relaxes.So according to above information all option are wrong except A option.Alfred wegener suggested that earths continents are moving. Which evidence support this theory
Close geometric correspondence of continental coastlines.

What is the mass in grams of 100 atoms of carbon?
(Enter the number in scientific notation with units!)
Hello!
To find the mass in grams of 100 atoms of carbon, we need to use Avogadro's number, which is 6.02 x 10^23 grams, and divide that by the total number of atoms.
Next, we would need to find how much one mole of carbon weighs. In this case, it is exactly 12 grams.
1. Divide by Avogadro's number
100 / (6.02 x 10^23) ≈ 1.66 x 10^-22
2. Multiply by one mole of carbon
(1.66 x 10^-22) x 12 ≈ 2.0 x 10^-21
Therefore, the mass of 100 atoms of carbon is equal to about 2.0 x 10^-21 grams.
Why are a molecules atoms as far away from each other as they can get
Explanation:
An atom consists of electrons, protons, and neutron. The protons and neutrons are present inside the nucleus whereas the electrons are present outside the nucleus.
These electrons revolve around the nucleus in circular motion. Therefore, an electron pair surrounds the central atom of a molecule. It is known that an electron contains a negative charge and like charges repel each other.
Hence, in an atom the force of repulsion between electron pairs pulls the atoms away from each other.
As a result, a molecules atoms are as far away from each other as they can get.
Answer:
forces between electron pairs push the atom apart

A student mixes four reagents together, thinking that the solutions will neutralize each other. The solutions mixed together are 50.0 ml of 0.100 m hydrochloric acid, 100.0 ml of 0.200 m of nitric acid, 500.0 ml of 0.0100 m calcium hydroxide, and 200.0 ml of 0.100 m rubidium hydroxide. Is the resulting solution neutral? If not, calculate the concentration of excess h or oh? Ions left in solution.
Answer: Resulting solution will not be neutral because the moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex]ions is greater. The remaining concentration of [tex][OH^-][/tex]ions =0.0058 M.
Explanation:
Given,
[HCl]=0.100 M
[tex][HNO_3][/tex] = 0.200 M
[tex][Ca(OH)_2][/tex] =0.0100 M
[RbOH] =0.100 M
Few steps are involved:
Step 1: Calculating the total moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] ion from both the acids
moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] in HCl
[tex]HCl\rightarrow {H^+}+Cl^-[/tex]
if 1 L of [tex]HCl[/tex]solution =0.100 moles of HCl
then 0.05L of HCl solution= 0.05 [tex]\times [/tex]0.1 moles= 0.005 moles (1L=1000mL)
moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] in HCl = 0.005 moles
Similarliy
moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] in [tex] HNO_3[/tex]
[tex]HNO_3\rightarrow H^++NO_3^-}[/tex]
If 1L of [tex]HNO_3[/tex] solution= 0.200 moles
Then 0.1L of [tex]HNO_3[/tex] solution= 0.1 [tex]\times [/tex] 0.200 moles= 0.02 moles
moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] in [tex]HNO_3[/tex] =0.02 moles
so, Total moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] ions = 0.005+0.02= 0.025 moles .....(1)
Step 2: Calculating the total moles of [tex][OH^-][/tex] ion from both the bases
Moles of [tex]OH^-\text{ in }Ca(OH)_2[/tex]
[tex]Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^2{+}+2OH^-[/tex]
1 L of [tex]Ca(OH)_2[/tex]= 0.0100 moles
Then in 0.5 L [tex]Ca(OH)_2[/tex] solution = 0.5 [tex]\times [/tex]0.0100 moles = 0.005 moles
[tex]Ca(OH)_2[/tex] produces two moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions
moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] = 0.005 [tex]\times [/tex] 2= 0.01 moles
Moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] in [tex]RbOH[/tex]
[tex]RbOH\rightarrow Rb^++OH^-[/tex]
1 L of RbOH= 0.100 moles
then 0.2 [RbOH] solution= 0.2 [tex]\times [/tex] 0.100 moles = 0.02 moles
Moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] = 0.02 moles
so,Total moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions = 0.01 + 0.02=0.030 moles ....(2)
Step 3: Comparing the moles of both [tex]H^+\text{ and }OH^-[/tex] ions
One mole of [tex]H^+[/tex] ions will combine with one mole of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions, so
Total moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] ions = 0.005+0.02= 0.025 moles....(1)
Total moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions = 0.01 + 0.02=0.030 moles.....(2)
For a solution to be neutral, we have
Total moles of [tex]H^+[/tex] ions = total moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions
0.025 moles [tex]H^+[/tex] will neutralize the 0.025 moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex]
Moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions is in excess (from 1 and 2)
The remaining moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] will be = 0.030 - 0.025 = 0.005 moles
So,The resulting solution will not be neutral.
Remaining Concentration of [tex]OH^-[/tex] ions = [tex]\frac{\text{Moles remaining}}{\text{Total volume}}[/tex]
[tex][OH^-]=\frac{0.005}{0.85}=0.0058M[/tex]
25pts! which of the following has the largest atomic radius mg mg2+ ca or ca2+
Ca has the largest atomic radius because it is further down the periodic table than Mg, and its cation, Ca²⁺, is still larger than Mg²⁺ because it retains an extra shell of electrons.
The atomic radius tends to increase as you move down a group in the periodic table because each successive element has an additional energy level, or shell. Conversely, atomic radius generally decreases as you move from left to right across a period because the effective nuclear charge increases, pulling the electrons closer to the nucleus. In the case of ions, cations (positively charged ions) are smaller than their neutral atoms because they have lost one or more electrons, reducing electron-electron repulsion and allowing the electrons to be pulled closer to the nucleus.
In comparing Mg, Mg²⁺, Ca, and Ca²⁺, we must remember that the neutral atoms will have a larger atomic radius than their respective cations. Between Mg and Ca, Ca is larger because it is lower on the periodic table. However, for the cations, Ca²⁺ is larger than Mg²⁺ because even though they have both lost two electrons, the calcium ion still has an additional shell of electrons compared to magnesium.
Therefore, among the given species, Ca has the largest atomic radius followed by Mg, then Ca²⁺, and finally Mg²⁺ having the smallest atomic radius.

By the mass percentage, [tex]100[/tex] grams of the sample would contain
[tex]53.8 \; \text{g}[/tex] of nitrogen, and[tex]46.2 \; \text{g}[/tex] of carbon.Which corresponds to

Which element is oxidized in the following reaction: CuO(s) + H2 (g) → Cu(s) + H2O (l)
Start by determining the oxidation numbers of each element on both sides of the equation CuO(s) + H2 (g) → Cu(s) + H2O (l)
Let's start with the reactants.
In the compound CuO(s), the oxidation number of O is -2 and the oxidation number of Cu is +2. (Remember, oxygen's oxidation number is -2 unless it's in a peroxide)
In H2(g) the oxidation number of H is 0 because it is in its elemental form.
Now onto the products
The oxidation number of Cu(s) is 0 because it is in its elemental form
In H2O(l) the oxidation number of oxygen is -2, and the oxidation number of H is +1.
Now let's summarize the change in the oxidation numbers of each element.
Cu: started as +2 and became 0
O: started as -2 and became -2 (didn't change)
H: started as 0 and became +1
To determine which element was oxidized, we look at which element lost electrons, and thus became more positive. So, we can determine that H was oxidized in this reaction, because it started with the oxidation number 0 and became +1.

The question:A new grill has a mass of 30.0 kg. You put 2.0 kg of charcoal in the grill. You burn all the charcoal and the grill has a mass of 30.0 kg. What is the mass in kg of the gases given off? (assume that the charcoal is pure carbon solid and that it burns completely in oxygen).
The answer: Mass of carbon burnt = 2Kg = 2000g
Moles of Carbon burnt = 2000/12
=> Moles of CO2 produced = 2000/12
=> Mass of CO2 produced = 2000/12*44 = 2 333.33 g = 2.33 Kg
In the answer, where did the 44 come from?
Answer:- Molar mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] .
Solution:- It is a stoichiometry problem. Mass of the grill is 30.0 kg and the mass after burning the grill is also 30.0 kg. It means all the charcol is burned and the gas is given off.
2.0 kg of charcol are converted to grams which is 2000 g. Since charcol is pure solid carbon, the grams are divided by the atomic mass of carbon which is 12.
The combustion equation of charcol is written as:
[tex]C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)[/tex]
From this balanced equation, there is 1:1 mol ratio between charcol and carbon dioxide. So, the moles of carbon dioxide gas formed are equivalent to the moles of charcol. To convert the moles of carbon dioxide to grams we multiply the moles by it's molar mass.
Carbon dioxide has one carbon and two oxygen atoms so it's molar mass = 12 + 2(16) = 12 + 32 = 44
So, 44 is the molar mass of carbon dioxide and above calculations clearly shows how and where we get this.

It takes three Na⁺ ions to balance the charge on one N³⁻ ion, so the formula of sodium nitride is Na₃N.
It takes three Mg²⁺ ions (charge = +6) to balance the charge on two N³⁻ ions
(charge = -6), so the formula of magnesium nitride is Mg₃N₂.
Magnesium forms a Mg²⁺ cation, cesium forms a Cs⁺ cation, and nitrogen forms an N³⁻ anion. Magnesium nitride, cesium nitride, and magnesium ceside are the ionic compounds formed, with formulas Mg₃N₂, Cs₃N, and MgCs₂, respectively. Ionic compounds must have balanced total charges.
1. (a). First, let's identify the ions that each element forms:
Magnesium (Mg) is in Group 2 of the periodic table and forms a cation by losing two electrons: Mg²⁺. Cesium (Cs) is in Group 1 and forms a cation by losing one electron: Cs⁺. Nitrogen (N) is in Group 15 and forms an anion by gaining three electrons: N³⁻.
1. (b). Next, let's determine the formulas of the ionic compounds these ions can form:
Magnesium Nitride (Mg₃N₂): Magnesium (Mg²⁺) and nitrogen (N³⁻) combine in a 3:2 ratio to balance the total charges.Cesium Nitride (Cs₃N): Cesium (Cs⁺) and nitrogen (N³⁻) combine in a 3:1 ratio to balance the total charges.Magnesium Ceside (MgCs₂): Magnesium (Mg²⁺) and cesium (Cs⁺) combine in a 1:2 ratio to balance the total charges.To determine the formulas, I considered the need for ionic compounds to be electrically neutral, meaning the total positive and negative charges must equal zero.
