Answer:

Ocean currents!!

Explanation:

The Oceans of the earth transfer heat from one location to another via massive ocean currents. These currents are like river flowing across the vastness of Earth, bringing warm water from the equator up towards higher latitudes, and cooler water down towards the equator.

Which 4 elements make up the bulk of living matter?
Hitman42 [59]
"<span>Let's start with the basics:  you have probably heard that your body is 90% (or 85% or 95%) water.  In actual fact, water is (probably--unless you are obese) the majority of your body weight--but nowhere near 90%.  The best estimate I have seen is 57% (Body water).  So that puts hydrogen and oxygen in the top four.
 
As I mentioned, extremely obese people can be less than 50% water.  Fat (triglycerides) is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.  The majority of the mass of a triglyceride is carbon--chemically it is closely related to biodiesel.  So that puts carbon in the top four.
 
Finally, amino acids which make up proteins (which make up muscle) require nitrogen.  That makes the top four.:  Oxygen, Carbon, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen.
 
But wait!  What about bones?  Aren't they calcium and phosphorous?  Bones are really heavy. 
 
It turns out that calcium and phosphorous are indeed the next two most abundant (by mass) elements in the body, but where nitrogen is about 3% of your body mass, calcium and phosphorous are 1.5% and 1.2% respectively. 
 
You can find the full breakdown of the elemental composition of your body here: <span>Abundance of the chemical elements"

Using the example in the above information determine the empirical formula of a compound if a sample contains 0.130 g of nitroge
olga2289 [7]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is NO_2

Explanation : Given,

Mass of O = 0.370 g

Mass of N = 0.130 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.370g}{16g/mole}=0.0231moles

Moles of Nitrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{0.130g}{14g/mole}=0.00928moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00928 moles.

For Oxygen  = \frac{0.0231}{0.00928}=2.4\approx 2

For Nitrogen = \frac{0.00928}{0.00928}=1

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of O : N = 2 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is NO_2

When humans burn fuel or cut down trees, they (increase/decrease) levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Arturiano [62]
When humans burn fuel/cut down tress, they will increase the level of carbon dioxide within the atmosphere. Tress "inhale" the carbon dioxide within the atmosphere and without them, the excess will still linger. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of burning fuel thus, it will increase the levels in the atmosphere.
