Which process transfers heat from inside earth to its surface? convection currents in mantle pulling away of tectonic plates drawing in of tectonic plates convection currents in crust

The chemical equation below shows the reaction of sodium (na) and chlorine (cl) to form sodium chloride (nacl). 2na + cl2 → 2nacl in this equation, which of the following is a reactant? i. sodium ii. chlorine iii. sodium chloride

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.
