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.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The reaction can produce 287 grams of iron(II) carbonate

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the moles of iron(II) chloride that react. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of iron(II) carbonate and its mass -Molar mass FeCO3: 115.854g/mol-

<em>Moles FeCl2:</em>

1.24L * (2.00mol / L) = 2.48 moles FeCl2

As 1 mol FeCl2 produce 1 mol FeCO3, the moles of FeCO3 = 2.48 moles

<em>Mass FeCO3:</em>

2.48mol * (115.854g / mol) =

<h3>The reaction can produce 287 grams of iron(II) carbonate</h3>

What pressure, in torr, would a sample of Xenon exert if it were compressed from 4001 mL to 3002 mL at constant temperature, giv
Andreyy89

Answer:

759779.6 torr

Explanation:

Initial volume, V₁ = 4001 mL

Final volume, V₂ = 3002 mL

Initial pressure, P₁ = 750.1 atm

We need to find the final pressure at a constant temperature. Let it be P₂. P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\\P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{750.1\times 4001 }{3002 }\\\\P_2=999.71\ atm

We know that,

1 atm = 760 torr

So,

999.71 atm = 759779.6 torr

Hence, there will be 759779.6 torr pressure.

Explain how temperature and mass affect the appearance of stars
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

If the star has smaller mass than the Sun, it can fuse hydrogen into helium for at least a trillion years. The larger a star, the shorter its life because it fuses hydrogen into helium much more quickly. A star whose mass is more than 20 Suns will run out of hydrogen in only a few hundred million years.
