Oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2) do not have much greenhouse effect, but several trace gases including carbon dioxide (CO2), methan

e (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and various chlorofluorocarbons are important greenhouse gases. The primary mechanism by which these greenhouse gases warm the Earth is:A.Preventing convection currents that take heat aloft, in the same way that the glass of a greenhouse stops convection currents and so makes the air in the greenhouse warmer.B.Raising the atmospheric pressure, because squeezing air warms it, as we saw at the Redwoods.C.Experiencing chemical reactions with each other, which release energy.D.Absorbing some of the infrared radiation emitted from the Earth.E.Making politicians mad, so they give speeches that heat the air

Answer:

A.Preventing convection currents that take heat aloft, in the same way that the glass of a greenhouse stops convection currents and so makes the air in the greenhouse warmer

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases produce the greenhouse effect. The green house effect is the warming effect produced when gases present in the atmosphere allow and retain the radiation from the sun to the earth. Examples of greenhouse gases are CO2, CH4, SO3, NO, CFCs. The greenhouse effect leads to an increase in the temperature of the earth subsequently leading to (I) melting of large amounts of ice at the poles causing flooding. (II) rapid evaporation of water from Earth’s surface. (III) decrease in crop yield.

Also, high concentration CFCs ( chlorofluorocarbons ), as widely used in aerosols, coolants and packaging foams, in the atmosphere depletes the ozone layer leading to global warming. In 1996 an international agreement was reached for a complete ban of CFCs and more countries are now going Green ( using alternative energy sources ) so as to minimize emissions of these greenhouse gases.

How many moles of hydrogen gas occupy a volume of 0.25L at STP?
Igoryamba

Answer:

There are 0,011 moles of hydrogen gas.

Explanation:

We use the ideal gas formula, with the constant R = 0.082 l atm / K mol. The STP conditions are : 1 atm pressure and 273 K temperature. Solve for the formula, n (number of moles):

PV=nRT ---> n= (PV)/(RT)

n= (1 atm x 0,25 L)/ (0,082 l atm/ K mol x 273 K)

<em>n= 0,011 mol</em>

Why are the fruit and vegetable sections called the produce aisle?
QveST [7]
Fruits and vegetables are in the produce aisle because they are plants, and plants are producers.
Producers are organisms that create energy on their own through various processes depending on the organism.
