This is an example of dissolution of carbonates.

When carbon combines with minerals, it dissolves carbon. This transforms minerals that contain calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. When rainwater attacks formations of limestone the constituent minerals dissolve and wash away with mildly acidic rainwater.

Which of the following best describes how cleaning products like chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, and soap influence the infectious
torisob [31]

Answer:

These cleaning products break apart the capsules of the viruses causing them to no longer be capable of infecting an individual.

Explanation:

Bleach oxidises organic molecules. This causes proteins to become denatured, or lose their shape. The viral capsule containing the DNA is a coat made up of proteins that is required for the virus to become infectious. Therefore, following bleach treatment, the viral protein capsule become oxidised, cause them to loses their shape, meaning the virus can no longer infect individuals.

When two plates form a subduction zone, which plate will subduct
Lemur [1.5K]

The denser plate

Explanation:

When two plates forms a subduction zone, the denser plate will subduct and dive into the underlying mantle below.

Subduction zone occurs along a convergent margin when two plates of different densities collides.

  • When two plates of different densities collides, the denser plates subduct.
  • This is because the density of the mantle below is less than its own density.
  • Most times, oceanic plates usually subduct during plate convergence.
  • Oceanic plates are denser compared to continental plates.

A student placed a semipermeable membrane inside a U-shaped channel with two chambers, as shown. The
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Placing salty water in  A and distilled water in  B.

Explanation:

The fastest net rate of water movement into the A-side will occur if we place salty water on that side and distilled water in the other one. The reason for this is that the A-side contains a higher concentration of solute than B. So, the water will pass the semipermeable membrane and go to the A-side to valance the concentrations on both sides. As we can see, there is an increase in the net rate of water movement into A.
