Greenhouse gases released from the burning of fossil fuels are responsible for global warming.

<h3>What is the atmosphere?</h3>

The atmosphere is the region of region of the planet above its surface area where gases envelop the planet.

Based on the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming;

Planet A has a higher surface temperature due to the higher amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.

Methane is the main constituent of natural gas. Humans increase the contribute to increase in methane gas by raising cattle,

Pollutants come from both natural sources and human activities.

Sulfur Dioxide is produced by the combustion of fuels in automobiles. Once in the atmosphere, it combine with water to form acid precipitation.

Nitrogen and oxygen do not contribute to the greenhouse effect because they are made up of 2 atom molecules that are bound tightly so they CANNOT vibrate to absorb energy.
Greenhouse gases contribute to global warming by absorbing infrared energy that reflects off Earth's surface and reemitting the energy in all directions. This keeps the infrared energy close to the Earth's surface.

Most of the greenhouse gases produced come from burning fossil fuels in factories, ships, cars, trains.

Therefore, pollutants such as greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming.

Which of the following possess the greatest concentration of hydroxide ions?

jek_recluse [69]

Answer : The correct option is (d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH

Explanation :

(a) a solution of pH 3.0

First we have to calculate the pOH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-3.0=11$

Now we have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$11=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-11}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-11}M$

(b) a solution of 0.10 M $NH_3$

As we know that 1 mole of $NH_3$ is a weak base. So, in a solution it will not dissociates completely.

So, the $OH^-$ concentration will be less than 0.10 M

(c) a solution with a pOH of 12.

We have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$12=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-12}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-12}M$

(d) a solution of 0.10 M NaOH

As we know that $NaOH$ is a strong base. So, it dissociates to give $Na^+$ ion and $OH^-$ ion.

So, 0.10 M of $NaOH$ in a solution dissociates to give 0.10 M of $Na^+$ ion and 0.10 M of $OH^-$ ion.

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, 0.10 M

(e) a $1\times 10^{-4}M$ solution of $HNO_2$

As we know that 1 mole of $HNO_2$ in a solution dissociates to give 1 mole of $H^+$ ion and 1 mole of $NO_2^-$ ion.

So, $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $HNO_2$ in a solution dissociates to give $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $H^+$ ion and $1\times 10^{-4}M$ of $NO_2^-$ ion.

The concentration of $H^+$ ion is $1\times 10^{-4}M$

First we have to calculate the pH.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (1.0\times 10^{-4})$

$pH=4$

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-4=10$

Now we have to calculate the $OH^-$ concentration.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$10=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-10}M$

Thus, the $OH^-$ concentration is, $1.0\times 10^{-10}M$

From this we conclude that, a solution of 0.10 M NaOH possess the greatest concentration of hydroxide ions.

Hence, the correct option is (d)

Over-the-counter hydrogen peroxide solutions are 3% (w/v). What is this concentration in moles per liter?

Marina CMI [18]

1 ml of water weighs 1 gram so 1 liter (1000 ml) weighs 1000 grams. A 3% solution (3% = 0.03) of hydrogen peroxide (w/v) would contain 1000 grams x 0.03 or 30 grams. The chemical formula of hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 and a mole weighs 34.0147 grams/mole. So 30 grams of H2O2 divided by 34.0147 grams/mole equals 0.88 moles of H2O2. The concentration of a 3% (w/v) hydrogen peroxide solution therefore contains 30 grams of H202 (or 0.88 moles of H202) per in a liter of water (or 1000 grams H20) would thus be 0.88 moles H2O2 per liter (0.88 moles H2O2/l) .

An explanation of what will happen every time in a specific situation

kramer

The one that is being described above is what we call SCIENTIFIC LAW. Scientific law is what explains of what will happen every time in a certain situation. This is also different from scientific theory since scientific theory only gives an explanation to a group of happenings and this can still be modified. Hope this helps.
