Answer:
In short, because we are tearing up the oxygen factories to make way for carbon dioxide emitters. (Doesn't make a lot of sense, read the explanation)
Explanation:
So, 1000 years ago, we had a lot more trees, didn't have engines or cars or factories or anything, really that released carbon dioxide into the air and we had a lot more trees and since the invention of cars, engines, carbon dioxide-emitting tools and factories and all the other things that emit "Greenhouse gases" and in doing that, cleared more trees to make room for factories and roads and that has drastically changed the outlook of the carbon cycle.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.
We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.
The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.
To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:
- The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion.
For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻
This would be: 2x + 7(-2) = -2
x = +6
We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.
Answer:
B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium
Explanation:
atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.
Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells
electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows
Mg - 2,8,2
Ca - 2,8,8,2
outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level
whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell
therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside
Answer:
The freezing point of the solution is - 4.39 °C.
Explanation:
We can solve this problem using the relation:
<em>ΔTf = (Kf)(m),</em>
where, ΔTf is the depression in the freezing point.
Kf is the molal freezing point depression constant of water = -1.86 °C/m,
density of water = 1 g/mL.
<em>So, the mass of 575 mL is 575 g = 0.575 kg.</em>
m is the molality of the solution (m = moles of solute / kg of solvent = (465 g / 342.3 g/mol)/(0.575 kg) = 2.36 m.
<em>∴ ΔTf = (Kf)(m</em>) = (-1.86 °C/m)(2.36 m) = <em>- 4.39 °C.</em>
<em>∵ The freezing point if water is 0.0 °C and it is depressed by - 4.39 °C.</em>
<em>∴ The freezing point of the solution is - 4.39 °C.</em>
