Which of the following, if eliminated, would completely prevent the greenhouse effect from occurring on earth?

1 answer:

7 0

The green house gases can be reduced up to a limit by eliminating the fossil fuels and chlorofluorocarbons. Fossil fuels are the major source of greenhouse gases.

<h3>What are green house gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases are those which are capable of intense absorption of the temperature radiated from the earth's surface and make the earth atmosphere warm up.

Greenhouse gases are the main cause of global warming. Carbon dioxide, methane oxides of nitrogen and sulphur are the green house gases.

Fossil fuels are rich in hydrocarbons and they release these gases when burned. Mainly methane and other hydrocarbon gases intensely absorbs the temperature which is radiating away from the earth and thus the heat is trapped inside.

Therefore, by eliminating fossil fuels, greenhouse effect can be prevented.

How much energy is needed to change 100 g of 0o C ice to 0o C water? The latent heat of fusion for water L=335,000 J/kg. Hint: T

pychu [463]

Answer:

33.5 kJ

Explanation:

here there is no difference is made in the temperature. Only thing happens here is the conversion of the ice in to water of 0 degree. The heat energy taken from the outside is spent for this conversion.

we have ice 100g =0.1 kg

Appplying Q=mL

Q= $0.1 kg * 335 000 J kg^{-1}$

Q = 33 500 J

Q = 33.5 kJ

Which shows increasing entropy?

fomenos

Answer:

mowing a lawn

Explanation:

Entropy is the degree of disorderliness of a system. As a body moves from a more ordered state to a less ordered one, the entropy of the system increases.

Mowing a lawn is a typical example of increasing entropy.
When a lawn is being mowed, the grasses becomes disordered without any fixed orientation.
Folding a clothe is trying to bring orderliness to the clothe patterning.
Washing dishes will make one arrange them in an ordered way.
Falling leaves brings leaves together.
