Well insulated houses use less energy to keep them warm. This means that less carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, is released into the atmosphere from burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) in our power stations and central heating boilers. Global warming is occurring because large volumes of greenhouse gases – including carbon dioxide – are accumulating in the Earth’s atmosphere. This causes the planet’s average air and ocean temperatures to increase and sea levels to rise, resulting in increasingly severe weather conditions. This effect is called climate change and it’s already happening. By improving the insulation of your home, you will be playing your part in reducing the effect of global warming.
cation means the primation in the air
Answer:
Given the following list of densities, which materials would float in a molten vat of lead provided that they do not themselves melt?
Densities (g/mL): lead = 11.4, glass = 2.6, gold = 19.3, charcoal = 0.57, platinum = 21.4.
glass and charcoal
Explanation:
The density of molten lead is about 10.65Kg/m^3
By Archimedes principles, the buoyancy of an object in a fluid is proportional to the mass of fluid displaced
which in turn is proportional to the object's density
Generally an object well float when placed on a denser medium
glass =2.6, and charcoal =0.57 are both less dense so they will float on Lead
Answer:
D. because water and mud behaved in a similar way in the past as they do today
Explanation:
One of the fundamental theories in the field of earth science is the theory of uniformitarianism.
Uniformitarianism was proposed by James Hutton in the 18th century in Scotland. The theory states that "geologic processes occurring today have occurred in times past and that the present is the key to past".
The simple meaning of the theory is that, the processes on earth today such as weathering, erosion, e.t.c have also occurred in times past. Those processes still occur today and an understanding of such events today will help us have a better insight into the past.
Therefore, ripple marks just as they form today from action of mud and water would be formed in a similar way in the past.
Answer: The pH 0f 0.10 solution of HCl is 1.00
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
According to stoichiometry,
1 mole of
gives 1 mole of
Thus
moles of
gives =
moles of
Putting in the values:
Thus pH 0f 0.10 solution of HCl is 1.00
