What type of mine is exposed on the surface?
An open pit mine, or quarry, is exposed on the surface.
An example of evaporation is faster when the exposed surface of water is large?
When the exposed surface of water is larger the evaporation is faster.
What is size of solute?
It is the amount of surface of a solute that is exposed to the solvent. The smaller the pieces of the solute are, the larger the surface area that is exposed to the solvent.
Why does crushing a solid increase the speed at which the solid dissolves?
ALL reactions (apart from Nuclear) take place on the surface. By crushing the solid you are increasing the surface area and also the SA/Volume ratio. This increased surface area increases the area available for the dissolution reaction.
What general term denotes a buried erosional surface where rock layers are missing?
unconformity
What denotes the exposed cresentshaped rupture surface at the head of a slump?
scarp
What type of mine is exposed on the surface?
An open pit mine, or quarry, is exposed on the surface.
How does the area of exposed surface affect evaporation?
The larger the exposed surface area - the faster evaporation occurs.
An example of evaporation is faster when the exposed surface of water is large?
When the exposed surface of water is larger the evaporation is faster.
What is size of solute?
It is the amount of surface of a solute that is exposed to the solvent. The smaller the pieces of the solute are, the larger the surface area that is exposed to the solvent.
What does sulfide rock create when exposed to rain and air on the surface?
Sulfide rock create when exposed to rain and air on the surface sulfuric acid.
What is causing the breakdown of sedimentary rocks?
Sedimentary rocks, when exposed on the surface, is exposed to weathering.
Hot liquid rock that is exposed at the surface?
"Hot liquid rock" exposed at or above the surface is called lava whereas if it is below the surface it is called magma.
What covers the exposed surface of the eye?
retina
Definition of surface area?
It is the area of the exposed surface. So if you take a cube, the surface area is the sum of the areas of each of the 6 faces. They are all the same in the case of a cube. In general, add up the surface area of each exposed surface and this is the total surface area.
What term denotes a buried erosional surface where rock layers are missing?
unconformity
How ores are mined that is exposed on the surface?
Ores near the surface will be quarried or opencast mined.
