The major drawback of fossil fuels is that they warm the planet i.e. they cause global warming.

The reaction typically gives off heat and light as well. The general equation for a complete combustion reaction is:

                                  Fuel + O2 → CO2 + H2O + ENERGY

<h3>Disadvantages of Fossil fuels</h3>

The term "fossil fuels" refers to flammable organic geologic formations, including dead organic matter that has been buried hundreds of feet beneath sediment.

  • Fossil fuel emissions include various oxides, such as carbon, nitrogen, and sulfate, which cause acid rain and harm the soil's fertility and water quality.
  • Both coal and petroleum burning discharge a significant amount of pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to pollution levels.
  • Gases like carbon dioxide are released through the burning of fossil fuels, which aids in climate change.

What transition energy corresponds to an absorption line at 527 nm?​
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

E = 3.77×10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of absorption line = 527 nm (527×10⁻⁹m)

Energy of absorption line = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = hc/λ

h = planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of wave = 3×10⁸ m/s

by putting values,

E = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js ×  3×10⁸ m/s / 527×10⁻⁹m

E = 19.89×10⁻²⁶ Jm /527×10⁻⁹m

E = 0.0377×10⁻¹⁷ J

E = 3.77×10⁻¹⁹ J

What does a chemical bond results from a rearrangement of?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Atoms

Explanation:

Chemical bonds results from the rearrangement of atoms in a chemical species.

It deals with the various attractive forces joining chemical species togethe.

  • When atoms are re-arranged, they form chemical bonds that leads to production of new compounds.
  • This is made possible by the exchange or sharing of electrons.
  • The driving force for most interatomic bonding is the tendency to have completely filled outer energy levels like the noble gases.
  • When atoms are re-arranged in compounds they lead to the production of chemical bonds.
