A sample of nitrogen gas is collected over water at temperature of 20.0˚C. What is the pressure of the nitrogen gas if atmospheric pressure is 1.01atm? (vapor pressure of water at 20.0˚C is 17.5 torr)

The density of the solid phase of a substance is 0.90 g/cm3 and the density of the liquid phase is 1.0 g/cm3. a large increase in pressure will a. lower the freezing point b. raise the freezing point c. lower the boiling point d. raise the triple point e. lower the triple point

Malik formed a hypothesis that an increase in atmospheric oxygen levels by 10% would cause red-legged grasshoppers to grow larger than normal. suppose that malik performs an experiment to test his hypothesis. which of these actions would represent a scientific mistake in his experiment? a. he experiments on live grasshoppers instead of preserved ones. b. he focuses on red-legged grasshoppers instead of all kinds of grasshoppers. c. he varies the nitrogen and carbon dioxide levels in the air from one trial to the next. d. he conducts the experiment in a controlled lab setting with a lab partner. e. he measures the mass and length of his specimens at the start of each trial.

In chile, the deepest earthquake occurred at 61.7°w longitude at a depth of 540 km. if the rocks at the focus began subducting 10 million years ago and are now 1000 km from their original position, what is the average rate of subduction in cm/yr?
