describe how metamorphic rocks are formed by heat and pressure

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Metamorphic rocks form when heat and pressure transform an existing rock into a new rock. Contact metamorphism occurs when hot magma transforms rock that it contacts. Regional metamorphism transforms large areas of existing rocks under the tremendous heat and pressure created by tectonic forces.

Write the net ionic equation for the following reaction:

AgC2H3O2(aq) + CaCl2(aq) →

Answers

Answer:

2Ag^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) --------> 2AgCl(s)

Explanation:

The net ionic equation reflects the main reaction that occurred in the system. It tells you the most important reaction that took place.

If we first put down the balanced molecular equation for the reaction, we have;

CaCl2(aq) + 2 AgC2H3O2(aq) ---------> 2 AgCl(s) + Ca(C2H3O2)2 (aq)

The net ionic equation is;

2Ag^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) --------> 2AgCl(s)

When naming acids the prefix hydro- is used when the name of the acid anion ends in___

Answers

Answer:

hydrochloric acid

Explanation:

These anions usually have the ending “-ide.” As acids, these compounds are named starting with the prefix “hydro-,” then adding the first syllable of the anion, then the suffix “-ic.” For example, HCl, which is hydrogen and chlorine, is called hydrochloric acid. More complex acids have oxygen in the compound.

Rust forms when iron metal reacts with oxygen gas. Which chemical reaction best
supports the law of conservation of mass?
A. Fe + O2 --> Fe2O3
B. 2Fe + O2 --> 2Fe2O3
C. 3Fe + 202 --> Fe2O3
D. 4Fe + 302 --> 2Fe2O3

Answers

Answer:

D. 4Fe + 302 --> 2Fe2O3

Explanation:

The equation that bests supports the law of conservation of mass is the choice D;

       4Fe  +   3O₂  →   2Fe₂O₃

Based on the law of conservation of mass, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression must be the same. Only the fourth choice proves this law;

           4Fe  +   3O₂  →   2Fe₂O₃

                                                Number of atoms

    Elements              Left hand side                            Right hand side

        Fe                                4                                                     4

        O                                 6                                                      6

We can see that both side of the expression have the same number of atoms and the equation is balanced.  

The speed of a mechanical wave through a medium depends on the type of medium. It also depends on the type of mechanical wave. Which statement is true?

Answers

The statements are;

A) All waves travel at the same speed if no medium is present.

B) Electromagnetic waves require a medium, but mechanical waves do not.

C) All waves travel at the same speed through any medium.

D) Mechanical waves require a medium, but electromagnetic waves do not.

Answer:

Statement D is true.

Mechanical waves require a medium, but electromagnetic waves do not.

Explanation:

The two types of waves are;

Mechanical waves and Electromagnetic waves.

Mechanical waves require a medium, such as an atmosphere or water, to enable it transport its energy. For example sound waves occur when you clap and thereby distort the air around.

Whereas, Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to enable it transport its energy. A good example would be light. Normally, Electromagnetic waves are usually formed when the electric field and the magnetic field are perpendicular to each other.

So electromagnetic waves can transmit without a medium because electric and magnetic fields can exist independently without a medium.

why is an atom regarded as electrically unstable​

Answers

Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.

Question 14

How many moles of NaCl could be found in 0.4 L of a 0.9 M solution? Round your answer to
two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.36mol

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of NaCl  = 0.4L

Molarity  = 0.9M

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

To find the number of moles, the molarity of a solution is the amount of solute contained in a solution.

 Molarity  = [tex]\frac{number of moles}{volume}[/tex]  

 Number of moles = molarity x volume

 Insert the parameters and solve;

 Number of moles = 0.4 x 0.9  = 0.36mol

If 150 G of wood started Burning, and 30 G of wood ash was left behind, how many grams of CO2 to gas was released

Answers

Answer:

120G

Explanation:

From the combustion process, about 120G of carbon dioxide would be released into the atmosphere.

For the chemical reaction to obey the law of conservation of matter, if only ash and carbon dioxide are the product, then the sum of the mass of the product and that of the reactants must be the same.

   In a chemical reaction, matter is not created nor destroyed, but they are simply changed from one form to another.

   Mass of wood burning  = mass of ash + mass of CO₂

              150G  = 30G + mass of CO₂

         mass of CO₂ = 150G  - 30G  = 120G

A chemical change, because the atoms are rearranging to form new molecules.

A chemical change, because the molecules are staying the same.

Answers

Boiling water is an example of a physical change and not a chemical change because the water vapor still has the same molecular structure as liquid water (H2O). If the bubbles were caused by the decomposition of a molecule into a gas (such as H2O →H2 and O2), then boiling would be a chemical change

Therefore, your answer would be:

A physical change, because the molecules are staying the same.

No Reaction

Answers

Answer:

Ca3(PO4)2 and Na

Explanation:

The reaction equation is;

3Ca + 2Na3PO3 -------> Ca3(PO3)2 + 6Na

We must remember that calcium is above sodium in the electrochemical series. This implies that calcium can displace sodium from its solution. Calcium has a reduction potential of -2.87 V while sodium has a reduction potential of -2.71 V. The ion with the more negative reduction potential can easily displace the other in aqueous solution.

This explains why the reaction above is possible.
