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.

How many L of a 7.5 H2SO4 stock solution would you need to prepare a dilute solution 100 L of 0.25M H2SO4

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

3.33 L

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the equation:

C₁V₁=C₂V₂

Where the subscript 1 refers to one solution and subscript 2 to the another solution, meaning that in this case:

C₁ = 0.25 M

V₁ = 100 L

C₂ = 7.5 M

V₂ = ?

We input the data:

0.25 M * 100 L = 7.5 M * V₂

V₂ = 3.33 L

Thus the answer is 3.33 liters.

Which matter has more attraction between the particles

julia-pushkina [17]

There are spaces between particles of matter. The average amount of empty space between molecules gets progressively larger as a sample of matter moves from the solid to the liquid and gas phases. There are attractive forces between atoms/molecules, and these become stronger as the particles move closer together.
