What keeps some of the radiation from the Sun in the atmosphere?

The appropriate answer is b. greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane have the ability to trap infrared radiation or heat in the atmosphere. Without these gases the Earth would be thirty degrees cooler than it is today. Pollution today has caused more of these gases to enter the atmosphere and this is the main cause of contemporary global warming.
Ozone in the stratosphere actually blocks another form of radiation called ultraviolet radiation. Geothermal energy is derived from hot rocks inside the earth.

Consider the reactivity of phenol, bromobenzene, toluene, and nitrobenzene toward electrophilic aromatic substitution.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The most reactive compound is:<u> Phenol </u>  because the<u> electron donating</u> character of the <u>alcohol group</u> increases the rate of the reaction.

The least reactive compound is <u>nitrobenzene</u>

because the <u>electron withdrawing</u> character of the<u> nitro group</u> decreases the rate of the reaction.

Explanation:

  • PHENOL-: Any of a group of organic compounds with a hydroxyl (OH) group bound to a carbon atom in an aromatic ring is known as phenol. The word phenol is also the basic name for its simplest member, monohydroxybenzene (C6H5OH), also known as benzenol or carbolic acid, in addition to being the common name for the entire family.
  • ELECTRON DONATING CHARACTER-: Via the carbon atom it is bound to, an electron donating group (EDG) has the net effect of increasing electron density in a molecule. EDGs alter a molecule's reactivity by increasing electron density on neighboring carbon atoms: EDGs make nucleophiles stronger.
  • ALCOHOL GROUP-:Each of a class of organic compounds that have one or more hydroxyl (OH) groups bound to an alkyl group's carbon atom (hydrocarbon chain)is called Alcohol. Alcohols are organic compounds of water (H_2O) in which one of the hydrogen atoms has been substituted by an alkyl group, which in organic structures is usually expressed by R.
  • NITROBENZENE-:The organic compound nitrobenzene has the chemical formula (C_6H_5NO_2). It's a pale yellow oil that's insoluble in water and smells like almonds. Greenish-yellow crystals form when it freezes. It is made on a wide scale as a precursor to aniline from benzene. It is sometimes used as a solvent in the laboratory, especially for electrophilic reagents.
  • ELECTRON WITHDRAWING GROUP-: An electron withdrawing group (EWG) is a type of group that reduces electron density in a molecule by bonding to a carbon atom. EWGs alter a molecule's reactivity by reducing electron density on neighboring carbon atoms.
  • NITRO GROUP-: The nitro group is one of the most widely used explosophores (functional groups that combine to form a compound explosive). In addition, the nitro group is a heavy electron-withdrawing group. CH bonds alpha (adjacent) to the nitro group may be acidic due to this property.

If air contains 78% Nitrogen by volume, what is the solubility of nitrogen in water at 25 degree celisus​
Svet_ta [14]

The solubility of nitrogen in water at 25 °C= 4.88 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

78% Nitrogen by volume

Required

The solubility of nitrogen in water

Solution

Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas is proportional to its partial pressure  

Can be formulated  

S = kH. P.  

S = gas solubility, mol / L  

kH = Henry constant, mol / L.atm  

P = partial gas pressure  

In the standard 25 C state, the air pressure is considered to be 1 atm, so the partial pressure of N₂ -nitrogen becomes:

Vn / Vtot = Pn / Ptot

78/100 = Pn / 1

Pn = 0.78 atm

Henry constant for N₂ at 25 °c = 1600 atm/mol.L=6.25.10⁻⁴ mol/L.atm

The solubility :

\tt S=6.25.10^{-4}\times 0.78\\\\S=4.88\times 10^{-4}~mol/L

Consider the hypothetical reaction 4A + 3B → C + 2D Over an interval of 3.00 s the average rate of change of the concentration o
pogonyaev

Answer:

Final concentration of C at the end of the interval of 3s if its initial concentration was 3.0 M, is 3.06 M and if the initial concentration was 3.960 M, the concentration at the end of the interval is 4.02 M

Explanation:

4A + 3B ------> C + 2D

In the 3s interval, the rate of change of the reactant A is given as -0.08 M/s

The amount of A that has reacted at the end of 3 seconds will be

0.08 × 3 = 0.24 M

Assuming the volume of reacting vessel is constant, we can use number of moles and concentration in mol/L interchangeably in the stoichiometric balance.

From the chemical reaction,

4 moles of A gives 1 mole of C

0.24 M of reacted A will form (0.24 × 1)/4 M of C

Amount of C formed at the end of the 3s interval = 0.06 M

If the initial concentration of C was 3 M, the new concentration of C would be (3 + 0.06) = 3.06 M.

If the initial concentration of C was 3.96 M, the new concentration of C would be (3.96 + 0.06) = 4.02 M
