Answer: Destruction of the ozone

Explanation: Some of the he most common refrigerants used for air conditioning is chloroflurocarbons and  hydroflurocarbon that can deplete the ozone layer that is a protective covering.

This covering filters the harmful rays of the sun that is harmful for the human beings and animals on the earth. The coolants contains chlorine which impacts the ozone and cause depletion.

The correct answer is B. Destruction of the ozone layer

Explanation:

The ozone layer is the layer of the atmosphere that absorbs UV rays from the sun, indeed this layer absorbs around 98% of these rays. Due to this, the depletion of this layer can lead to skin cancer in humans and other negative consequences that are the result of UV rays. Unfortunately, in the last decades, this layer has been depleted or reduced mainly due to the use of chlorofluorocarbons that are substances found in aerosols and refrigerants including those used in air conditioners. Therefore, some refrigerants used in air conditioners have been associated with the destruction of the ozone layer.

A person’s blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma
Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.17%

Explanation:

With the equation:

2Cr2O7 2- + C2H5OH + H2O --> 4Cr3+ + 2CO2 + 11H2O

We can assume that every mole of ethanol needs 2 moles of Dichromate to react.

So if in 1L we have 0.05961 moles of dichromate we can discover how many moles we have in 35.46mL

1000 mL - 0.05962 moles

35.46 mL - x

x = \frac{0.05962 * 35.46}{1000}

x = 2,11* 10^-3 moles

As we said earlier, 1 mole of ethanol needs 2 mole of dichromate, so in the solution we have 1,055*10^-3 moles of ethanol. We can discover the mass of ethanol present in the solution.

1 mole - 46g

1.055*10^-3 - y

y = 46 * 1.055*10^-3

y = 0.048 g

To discover the percent of alchol we can use a simple relation

28 g - 100%

0.048 - z

z = \frac{0.048 * 100}{28}

z = 0.17%

Which of the following correctly
goblinko [34]

Answer:

An element is made of one type of  atom, while a compound is two or

more types of atoms combined.

Explanation:

An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split up into simpler substances. Elements are substances that consists of only one kind of atom.

Compounds are substances composed of two or more kinds of atoms/elements joined together in a definite grouping.

  • There are over a hundred elements known to date.
  • Each one of the elements is symbolized by a capital or a capital letter followed by a small letter derived from English, Latin or Greek
  • Examples are copper, gold, iron
  • The properties of a compound are distinct and different from those of the individual elements that are combined in its make up.
  • There are several millions of compounds known.
  • They are usually represented by chemical formulae.

As we can see, compounds are indeed made up of more than one types of atoms whereas an element is made up of just one single atom.
