What are the 4 most abundant minerals in the continental crust? What percentage do these 4 makeup of the total?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tanya [424]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

SiO_2, Al_2O_3, CaO, MgO

Explanation:

The four most abundant minerals in the continental crust are, SiO_2, Al_2O_3, CaO, MgO.

The percentages are

SiO_2=60.6\%

Al_2O_3=15.9\%

CaO=6.4\%

MgO=4.7\%

SiO_2 is called quartz

Al_2O_3 is called corundum

CaO is called calcium oxide or quick lime

MgO is called magnesium oxide or magnesia

A 1.0 g sample of a cashew was burned in a calorimeter containing 1000. g of water, and the temperature of the water changed fro
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

1.0 g sample of a cashew :

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of cashew = -Q

We have mass of water = m = 1000 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT = 30°C - 25°C = 5°C

Heat absorbed by the water :  Q

Q=1000 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times 5^oC=20,920 J

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of cashew is -20,920 J.

3.0 g sample of a marshmallows  :

Heat released on  combustion of 3.0 g sample of a marshmallows = -Q'

We have mass of water = m = 2000 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT = 30°C - 25°C = 5°C

Heat absorbed by the water :  Q'

Q'=2000 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times 5^oC=41,840 J

Heat released on 3.0 g sample of a marshmallows= -Q' = -41,840 J

Heat released on 1.0 g sample of a marshmallows : q

q =\frac{-Q'}{3} = \frac{-41,840 J}{3}=-13,946.67 J

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of marshmallows -13,946.67 J.

-20,920 J. > -13,946.67 J

The combustion of 1.0 g of cashew releases more energy than the combustion of 1.0 g of marshmallow.

In the activity, click on the E∘cell and Keq quantities to observe how they are related. Use this relation to calculate Keq for
joja [24]

Answer:

ΔG° = -118x10³ J/mol

Explanation:

The two half-reactions in the cell are:

Oxidation half-reaction:

Co(s) → Co²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻; E° = -0,28V

Reduction half-reaction:

Cu²⁺(aq)+2e⁻ → Cu(s); E° = 0,34V

The E° of the cell is defined as:

E_{cell} = E_{red} - E_{ox}

Replacing:

0,34V - (-0,28V) = 0,62V

It is possible to obtain the keq from E°cell with Nernst equation thus:

nE°cell/0,0592 = log (keq)

Where:

E°cell is standard electrode potential (0.62 V)

n is number of electrons transferred (2 electrons, from the half-reactions)

Replacing:

0,62V×2/0,0592 = log (keq)

20,946 = log keq

keq = 8,83x10²⁰≈ 5,88x10²⁰

ΔG° is defined as:

ΔG° = -RT ln Keq

Where R is gas constant (8,314472 J/molK) and T is temperature (298K):

ΔG° = -8,314472 J/molK×298K ln5,88x10²⁰

<em>ΔG° = -118x10³ J/mol</em>

I hope it helps!

Which of the following statements concerning hydrocarbons is/are correct?
Alona [7]

Answer:

1.  Saturated hydrocarbons may be cyclic or acyclic molecules.

2.  An unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule contains at least one double bond.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, hydrocarbons are defined as the simplest organic compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen only, for that reason we can immediately discard the third statement as ethylenediamine is classified as an amine (organic chain containing NH groups).

Next, as saturated hydrocarbons only show single carbon-to-carbon bonds and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, they may be cyclic (ring-like-shaped) or acyclic (not forming rings), so first statement is true

Finally, since we can find saturated hydrocarbons which have single carbon-to-carbon and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds only and unsaturated hydrocarbons which could have double or triple bonds between carbons and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, the presence of at least one double bond makes the hydrocarbon unsaturated.

Therefore, first and second statements are correct.

Best regards.
