Answer:
b. growth in the size of the mineral grains
Explanation:
Non-foliated texture shown by a metamorphic change is depicted by growth in the size of the mineral grains.
- Examples of non-foliated metamorphic rocks are quartzite and marble.
- In these metamorphic rocks, mineral grains are not aligned with their long axis.
- Non-foliated texture occurs under high temperature and low pressure conditions.
- As minerals are able to grow, the size can be used to show a metamorphic change.
Helium (He) has the lowest melting point of <span>-272.2 °C.</span>
The answer is C, because wind turbines are used to produce electricity, and it's also the most safest way--but they are expensive.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Calculate the volume of the unit cell
V = l³ = (2.866 × 10⁻⁸ cm)³ = 2.354 × 10⁻²³ cm³
2. Calculate the mass of a unit cell
3. Calculate the mass of one atom
A body-centred unit cell contains two atoms.
Answer:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Explanation:
Let us consider the complete redox reaction:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
This is a redox reaction because, both oxidation and reduction is simultaneously taking place.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
Here Zn(s) is undergoing oxidation from OS 0 to +2
And H in HCl (aq) is undergoing reduction from OS +1 to 0.
Therefore, for this reaction;
Oxidation Half equation is:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Reduction Half equation is:
2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)
