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

2 answers:

5 0

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.

pentagon [3]

Answer: molecular formula = C12H16O8

Explanation:

NB Mm CO2= 44g/mol

Mm H2O= 18g/mol

Moles of CO2 = 36.86/44=0.84mol

0.84mole of CO2 has 0.84 mol of C

Moles of H2O = 10.06/18= 0.56mol

1mol of H20 contains 1mol of O and 2 mol H,

Hence there are 0.56mol O and (0.56×2)mol H

Hence the compound contains

C= 0.84 mol H= 1.12mol O=0.56mol

Divide through by smallest number

C= 0.83/0.56= 1.5mol

H= 1.12/0.55= 2mol

O= 0.56/0.56= 1mol

Multiply all by 2 to have whole number of moles = 3:4:2

Hence empirical formula= C3H4O2

(C3H4O2)n = 288.38

[(12×3) + 4+(16×2)]n= 288.38

72n=288.38

n= 4

:. Molecular formula=(C3H4O2)4= C12H16O8

Relative to protons, electrons have:

saw5 [17]

Answer:

<u><em>(B.) a significantly lower mass that protons</em></u>

Explanation:

The mass (in g) of an electron is 9.11 × $10^{-28}$ g, which is significantly lower than the mass of protons and neutrons which are approximately the same. They are extremely small (equal to 0 amu), contributing nothing to the overall mass of the atom.

The nucleus has a mass of 1 amu and is positively charged.

Calculate the new boiling point of a solution if 10.00 g of a non-ionizing compound (C3H5(OH)3) is dissolved in 90.00 g of H2O.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Boiling T° of solution = 100.6

Explanation:

Formula for elevation of boiling point is:

ΔT = Kb . m . i

where ΔT means Boiling T° of solution - Boiling T° of pure solvent

Our solute is a non ionizing compound.

i = 1, because it is a non ionizing compound. i, indicates the ions dissolved in solution.

m = molality (moles of solute dissolved in 1 kg of solvent)

90 g of solvent = 0.09 kg of solvent

We convert mass of solute to moles (by the molar mass):

10 g . 1 mol /92.09 g = 0.108 moles

m = 0.108 mol /0.09 kg = 1.21 m

Let's replace data: Boiling T° of solution - 100°C = 0.51 °C/m . 1.21 m . 1

Boiling T° of solution = 0.51 °C/m . 1.21 m . 1 + 100°C

Boiling T° of solution = 100.6
