Answer:
Nitrogen reacts with oxygen to form a number of nitrogen oxides. It exhibits different oxidation states in its oxides, ranging from +1 to +5. Oxides of nitrogen having nitrogen in the higher oxidation state are more acidic than that in lower oxidation state. Nitrogen oxides are critical components of photochemical smog. They produce the yellowish-brown colour of the smog. In poorly ventilated situations, indoor domestic appliances such as gas stoves and gas or wood heaters can be significant sources of nitrogen oxides.
Following are the harmful effects caused by the oxides of nitrogen
Nitrogen oxides causes irritation in mucous membrane.
Large concentrations of Nitrogen oxide causes lungs problems in humans
It causes injuries to vegetation by damaging leaves.
Nitrogen oxide oxidizes Hydrocarbons in the presence of sunlight, which causes eye irritation, asthama attacks, nasal and throat infections.
NO: sharp, sweet-smelling, colourless gas. Melting point: -163.6°C. Boiling point: -151.8°C. Relative Density: 1.04 (air = 1) NO2: reddish-brown gas with irritating odour
Answer:
CH₄ and N₂O are not likely to be biologically important greenhouse gases for tree growth
Explanation:
From the discussion of the experiment testing the given hypothesis in the question, all the gases tested, CO2, N2O and CH4 are all green house gases. The aim of the experiment was to ascertain the impact of the selected greenhouse gases on plant biomass. It was observed that CO2 does lead to increase in plant biomass while N2O and CH4 did not.
A proper deduction from the experiment will be 'CH₄ and N₂O are not likely to be biologically important greenhouse gases for tree growth'.
As sulfur-31 has 16 protons (equivalent to the atomic number) in total. The quantity of protons and electrons in an atom is equal. Consequently, sulfur-31 has 16 electrons in total.
As a result, sulfur-31 has (31-16) or 15 neutrons (the difference between the mass number and atomic number).
What is the atomic number?
The average mass of an element's atoms expressed in atomic mass units is known as its atomic mass (amu, also known as daltons, D).
- The mass of each isotope is multiplied by its abundance to produce the atomic mass, which is a weighted average of all the isotopes of that element.
- (Atomic mass is also known as atomic weight however, "mass" is a more precise phrase.)
The atomic mass of an element, measured in AMU, is equal to the mass in grams of one mole of an element.
- This relationship between the atomic mass and the mole concept is important in chemistry.
Hence, the answer is 15neutrons.
