The emission of carbon due to excessive burning of fossil fuels for making electricity, driving cars and other things  
Sati [7]3 years ago
7 0
Both driving a car and using electricity produce several greenhouse gases which can lead to global warming.Greenhouse gases are gases that, when released into the atmosphere, trap the heat from the sun's energy. Every day the energy from the sun reaches the earth. Some of the energy is reflected back into space and some of the energy is trapped by the earth's atmosphere. Most of the time the energy being trapped by the atmosphere serves to warm up the earth, so that the temperature does not fluctuate dramatically. In this way the atmosphere acts like a greenhouse - trapping the warmth in. One of the ways that electricity is made is by burning fossil fuels, like coal or fuel. When a fuel is burnt, some of the products are: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and water - all of these gases are greenhouse gases. In a similar way driving a car also burns fossil fuels, and this will produce the same gases.<span>Before lots of fossil fuels were burnt the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere would have been moderated by the carbon cycle. However, if we burn excess fossil fuels we are producing excess greenhouse gases. This can cause more heat to be trapped by the atmosphere and therefore the global temperature will start to rise - global warming. hope i helped </span>

Why is it important for scientists to review and repeat the work of other scientists?
Veronika [31]

Scientists repeat experiments for reliability.  Experiments have to be repeated, since performing an experiment only once, does not prove a scientists theory on the experiment, which they develop by performing the experiment.  And then performing the experiment again or even many times to prove or disapprove their theories.  Btw, before an experiment begins, the scientist will make a hypothesis of what they believe will happen.  If proven correctly, they would then use those results they record throughout the experiment, from beginning to end to prove whether or not their hypothesis are correct or incorrect.  Click to let others know, how helpful is it

So that they can prove the other scientists views wrong and develop a new theory in which there is more sense and credibility.

If you were going to graphically determine the enthalpy of vaporization, δhvap, for this liquid, what points would you plot
Klio2033 [76]
It depends on what type of graph you have. The easiest would be using a H-T diagram. Enthalpy of vaporization is the physical change from liquid to vapor. It occurs at a constant pressure and a constant temperature. As shown in the picture, 1 point is drawn on the subcooled liquid, and another point of the saturated vapor isothermal line. Now, the difference between those two points is the value for the enthalpy of vaporization of water.
