Which layers does Earth's tectonic plates sit atop and slide along?
Asthenosphere
What forms weak covalent bonds which allows atoms to slip and slide in graphite?
The sliping is between the covalently bonded layers in graphite - conventionally the bonding is assumed to be inter -molecular between the layers, principally London dispersion forces..
What happen the microscope slide on the flame?
It will crack or break.
When rock layers break the resulting surface they break and slide on is a?
A Fault
What layer are the continents sliding on?
well the continents are on the crust but when they slide it is becasue of the mantle when the convecton cycle of the magma is happening that cause the contunents to slide.

What is formed when rocks slide along a cracks?
sounds like, if the rocks are plates, an earthquake... assuming this "crack" is a fault?? does this help?
How does the bonding of Graphite explain Graphite's lubricanting properties?
Graphite only forms 3 covalent bonds and is arranged in layers so the layers can slide over each other easily.

What is a pressure causing ice layers to slide over each other?
wet ice causes ice layers to slide over each other
Can focusing a microscope upward crack a slide?
yes
When was Slide Along Side created?
Slide Along Side was created on 2004-06-01.
Is it true that because the bonds between layers of carbon atoms are weak layers of fullerenes slide easily past one another?
True, becauseGraphite is a soft, slippery substance, attributed to the fact that the layers are not chemically bonded and can slide over one another.
Are the layers of graphite held together strongly?
The bonds between the actual carbon atoms is very strong, and it forms a lattice, but the layers that the lattices form, are bound together by very weak electro static forces of attraction, which is the main reason graphite is used as a lubricant for example, because the layers can easily slide past each other.
When rock layers break the resulting surface they break and slide on is a?
A Fault
Why must you take care when using a microscope slide?
You might crack the glass.
