Which statement best describes the greenhouse effect? It is a process by which plants are able to grow well in a warm, enclosed

structure. It is a process by which greenhouse gases block the sun’s light to penetrate the atmosphere. It is a process by which greenhouse gases allow the sun’s light to penetrate the atmosphere but stop the heat from escaping. It is a process by which prevailing winds bring moisture to the land, to the prevailing wind direction.

<span>Answer: It is a process by which greenhouse gases allow the sun’s light to penetrate the atmosphere but stop the heat from escaping.

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect is the natural heating of the Earth's surface due to the fact that the sunligth waves may penetrate the atmosphere and reach the solid surface, but when the sunlight waves return after reaching the solid surface, process that changes the wavelength of the sunlight, they cannot penetrate the greenhouse gases and so the heat is kept inside the atmosphere with the consequent increase of temperature.

If the density of water is 1g/ml, what is the mass of 254ml of water?
Mariulka [41]
The mass of 254 mL of water is 254 g. Since the density of water is 1g/mL, we can simply multiply the density 1g/mL by 254 mL of water and get 254 g as our answer.  Since mL is in the numerator and denominator, mL cancels out and we are left with g only.

Phosphorus can be stable with 12 electrons in its valence structure while nitrogen can never have more than 8 electrons in its v
dolphi86 [110]

Here we have explain that the maximum possible electrons present in nitrogen valence shell is 8 whereas in phosphorous 12 valence electrons are present.

Although both nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) belongs to the same series there are several properties which are different between both the element. The number of electrons present in nitrogen is seven which are present in the -s and -p orbitals. The electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³. In which the outermost electrons are the valence electrons i.e. 5 valence electrons are present. The maximum orbitals are possible under the principal quantum number 2 are -s and -p orbitals. Now the maximum capacity of the p orbital to contain 6 electrons, as it is half filled in nitrogen another 3 electrons can be incorporated. Thus the maximum number of electrons can be present in nitrogen is 10 among which 8 is the valence electrons.

On the other hand there are 15 electrons in phosphorous the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³. Now the principal quantum number 3 can have three orbitals -s, -p and -d. So another 13 electrons can be incorporated (3 in -p orbital and 10 in -d orbital) among which upto 12 electrons can be its valence electrons.

The following pairs of aqueous solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane. In which direction will the solvent flow?a.
raketka [301]

Answer:

osmosis is a process where by solvent or fluid molecules flow from low concentration to high concentration.

So in

A.solvent will flow from B to A because

B = 3.45 M sodium bromide is more concentrated than 3.45 M calcium iodide;

b) solvent still flow from B to A because

A = 5.00 M sucrose is less concentrated than B = 3.00 M potassium nitrate
