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.

Calculate the ratio of the velocity of helium atoms to the velocity of neon atoms at the same temperature.
o-na [289]

Answer:

vHe / vNe = 2.24

Explanation:

To obtain the velocity of an ideal gas you must use the formula:

v = √3RT / √M

Where R is gas constant (8.314 kgm²/s²molK); T is temperature and M is molar mass of the gas (4x10⁻³kg/mol for helium and 20,18x10⁻³ kg/mol for neon). Thus:

vHe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

The ratio is:

vHe / vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol / √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

vHe / vNe = √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

<em>vHe / vNe = 2.24</em>

What is the transition element which despite its strength (rigidity), it is characterized by being ductile, and by its high resi
uranmaximum [27]

Titanium is ductile and has high resistance for heat despite its strength.

Titanium (Ti), is a  Group 4b chemical transition  element, it has a silvery gray appearance. Its characteristics are as follows

  • known as the strongest metal with high rigidity
  • low-corrosion resistance
  • low density
  • heat resistance.

Because of these features, Titanium is widely used in building  aircraft, missiles, and ships and also in the production  of  prosthetics.

A 0.98 gram sample of a volatile liquid was heated to 348 k. the gas occupied 265 ml of space at a pressure of 0.95 atm. what is
arlik [135]

Answer:

The molecular weight is Z =  111.2 \ g/mol

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the sample is  m =  0.98 \  g

    The temperature is  T  =  348 K

    The volume which the gas occupied is  V  =  265 \ ml  = 265 *10^{-3} L

     The pressure is  P  =  0.95 \  atm

Generally from the ideal gas equation we have that

       PV  =  n RT

Here n is the number of moles of the gas while the R is the gas constant with value  R  =  0.0821 \ atm \cdot L  \cdot mol^{-1} \cdot K^{-1}

        n = \frac{PV}{ RT}

=>      n = \frac{ 0.95 * 265 *10^{-3} }{   0.0821 * 348}

=>      n = 0.00881 \  mol

Generally the molecular weight is mathematically represented as

          Z =  \frac{m}{n}

=>      Z =  \frac{0.98 }{0.00881}

=>      Z =  111.2 \ g/mol
