10. Which statement best describes the formation of diamonds?
A. Diamonds form in kimberlites under very low pressure.
B. Diamonds form in talc under very low pressure.
C. Diamonds form in talc under very high pressure.
D. Diamonds form in kimberlites under very high pressure.
D?
. Please choose the answer that describes the scientific notation for 3,134,000,000.
A. 31.34 × 109
B. 3.134 × 109
C. 3.143 × 1045
D. 3.143 × 109
not c or D at all or a, must be b.
Correct.
I don't know the answer for your second question.
Correct for what question?
The question with #'s you don't know.
I don't know the questions with numbers.
For your second question, B is correct.
I assume you meant:
A. 31.34 × 10^9
B. 3.134 × 10^9
C. 3.143 × 10^45
D. 3.143 × 10^9
If you do the math for each, B is the only one that equals 3,134,000,000. So, you are correct.
I hope this helps! :)
Also, Ms. Sue was talking about your question with diamonds being correct.
To determine the correct answer, let's examine each option:
A. Diamonds form in kimberlites under very low pressure.
B. Diamonds form in talc under very low pressure.
C. Diamonds form in talc under very high pressure.
D. Diamonds form in kimberlites under very high pressure.
Diamonds are formed deep within the Earth's mantle, typically about 140 to 190 kilometers below the surface. They require high pressure and high temperature conditions for their formation.
Talc is a mineral that forms under low pressure conditions and is not associated with diamond formation. Therefore, options B and C can be eliminated.
Kimberlites, however, are igneous rocks that are known to carry diamonds to the Earth's surface. Kimberlites form at great depths and are brought to the surface through volcanic eruptions. During this process, diamonds are subjected to high pressure conditions. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
So, the correct answer is D. Diamonds form in kimberlites under very high pressure.
