Answer:

100 teragrams of nitrogen per year

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixation in Earth's ecosystems is defined as a process where by nitrogen in air is transformed into ammonia or other related nitrogenous compounds. Generally, atmospheric nitrogen is referred to as molecular dinitrogen and it is a nonreactive compound that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms. This process is vital to life due to the fact that inorganic nitrogen compounds are needed for the biosynthesis of amino acids, protein, and all other nitrogen-containing organic compounds. Thus, the natural rate of nitrogen fixation in Earth's ecosystems is 100 tetragrams of nitrogen per year.

What are the 5 types of matter?
sdas [7]

The five types of states of matter are solid, liquid, gas, plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate.

Solid objects do not move a lot relative to themselves. Their molecules stay stacked neatly with no intermolecular spaces. They do not have much energy, or heat hence the molecules in solid state don't show movement.

Liquid state have more heat and more energy and a little more intermolecular space than solid. Their molecules are no longer stacked neatly due to presence of air capsules, but they still touch each other. Their structure is uncertain and can flow, their shape will alter quickly and dramatically with outside forces, but they will essentially remain a single mass unless pushed apart.

Gasses have even more energy than liquid and solid. Due to presence of high intermolecular spaces they flow like liquids, but are even more susceptible to the forces acting on them. Their molecules don’t touch each other, but are still close enough to bounce into one another frequently.

Plasma is the state of matter which is like a gas on steroids. Molecules of plasma might start in the same area, but rarely touch each other. Plasma molecules have lost electrons, and have become charged. Plasma molecules set other things on fire, and even vaporize them.

Bose-Einstein condensate or BEC was first created by scientists in the year 1995. This was created using a combination of lasers and magnets, Eric Cornell and Carl Weiman, scientists at the Joint Institute for Lab Astrophysics (JILA) in Boulder, Colorado, cooled a sample of rubidium to within a few degrees of absolute zero.

Which of the following shows the wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level?
charle [14.2K]

The wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level corresponds to Emission spectrum , Option D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Emission Spectrum ?</h3>

Light is absorbed or emitted when an electron jumps or falls into an energy level.

The energy of light absorbed or emitted is equal to the difference between the energy of the orbits.

Therefore , the wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level corresponds to Emission spectrum.
