vitfil [10]4 years ago
4 0
<span>During an avalanche, potential energy of the snow on the mountain is converted to kinetic energy as the snow cascades down. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is due to the compacted atoms in the snow which will accumulate other snow resulting to a bigger snow that causes avalanche.</span>

How many grams of carbon dioxide are in 35.6 liters of co2
lina2011 [118]
The grams of carbon  dioxide  that are in 35.6 liters  of Co2 is calculates as below
calculate the  number of moles of CO2

At STP  1 mole  = 22.4 L

what  about  35.6 liters

=   1mole x 35.6  liters/ 22.4 liters = 1.589  moles

mass of CO2 =  moles x molar  mass of CO2

= 1.589 mol x 44 g/mol  =  69.92 grams

When do epa’s refrigerant management regulations exempt refrigerant from the venting prohibition
Xelga [282]

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) refrigerant management regulations would exempt any refrigerant from venting problem when it determines that the refrigerant in an appliance do not pose a threat to the environment (surrounding) if released.

A refrigerant can be defined as any chemical substance that undergoes a phase change (liquid and gas) so as to enable the cooling and freezing of materials. They are typically used in air conditioners, refrigerators, water dispensers, etc.

In the United States of America, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is a governmental agency which was established by U.S Congress and it is saddled with the responsibility of overseeing all aspects of pollution, environmental clean up, degradation, pesticide use, contamination, and hazardous waste spills. Also, EPA research solutions, policy development, and enforcement of regulations through the resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

Simply stated, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the governmental agency set up to ensure that various industries, factories and people comply with laws and regulations concerning the environment.

In conclusion, appliances such as a refrigerator, air conditioner (AC), etc., whose refrigerants do not pose a threat (potentially cause damage) to the environment if released are typically exempted by the EPA's refrigerant management regulations.

Which type of bond is found between atoms of solid cobalt?
Vsevolod [243]
The answer is (3) metallic. Cobalt is a transition metal, so it can't be covalent bonds, which bond non-metals, therefore eliminating choice 1 and 2. Ionic bonds are between metals and non metals, but solid cobalt does not have a non metal, eliminating choice 4 as well. Metallic bonds are bonds between metals, therefore the answer is (3) metallic.
