Answer:

The correc answer is C. greenhouse gases.

Explanation:

The atmosphere is a layer of gases that surrounds our planet and is one of the essential elements for life on it.

The atmosphere protects us from harmful solar radiation from the Sun. The Sun, in addition to light and heat (infrared radiation), emits other radiation such as gamma rays, X-rays and ultraviolet rays that are harmful to life. These harmful radiations are absorbed by the atmosphere.

The atmosphere also protects us from the impacts of meteorites. These are from outer space are attracted by gravity and fall on the earth's surface. Upon coming into contact with the gases of the atmosphere, at high speed, the friction causes them to heat up so much that they become incandescent and end up disintegrating, avoiding reaching the ground. Only the largest (rare) can pass through the atmosphere and reach the ground.

Something similar happens that with meteorites occurs with the dangerous particles of space.

Greenhouse gases contribute, to a greater or lesser extent, to the increase of the greenhouse effect, since they are capable of absorbing the heat energy carried by long-wave radiations that are reflected by the Earth's surface.This phenomenon prevents the solar energy constantly received by the Earth from returning immediately to space and causing the temperature of the air near the ground to rise. Then there are changes in the climate such as sea level rise, changes in rainfall, disappearance of forests, extinction of organisms and problems for agriculture.

So <u><em>the correc answer is C. greenhouse gases.</em></u>

can anyone help with this mole to mole/mole to grams question? any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) 3.00 mol Cu x 2 mol Ag/ 1 mol Cu = 6 mol Ag

b) 3.00 mol Cu x 2 mol Ag/1 mol Cu x 107.87g Ag/ 1 mol Ag = 647.22g Ag

c) 3.00 mol Cu x 1 mol Cu(NO3)2/ 1 mol Cu = 3 mol Cu(NO3)2

d) 3.00 mol Cu x 1 mol Cu(NO3)2/ 1 mol Cu x 187.54g/ 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 =562.644g Cu(NO3)2

Put the steps of the scientific method into the correct order.
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<span>The scientific method is a systematic way of questioning about the world around us and answering questions. The number of steps varies from one description to another, mainly when data and analysis are separated into separate step, but this is a fairly standard list of 6 scientific method steps, which you are expected to know for any science class:

1. Form a Hypothesis. This is a sort of educated guess about what you expect. 
2. Design an Experiment to test your hypothesis. An experiment has an independent and dependent variable. You change or control the independent variable and record the effect it has on the dependent variable.
3. Conduct Experiment
4. Record data and observations and analyze what the data means. Often, you'll prepare a table or graph of the data.
5. Form a Conclusion. Conclude whether to accept or reject your hypothesis. Communicate your results.</span>

Explain the process of groundwater
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Limestone is easily eroded from above and below.

Explanation:

The Florida bedrock is largely made of limestone. Because limestone is a rock that is easily eroded, the landscape of a great part of Florida is classified as karstic.

Karstic landscapes are dotted by sinkholes, underground rivers, caves, and springs. The more acidic the groundwater or rainwater, the faster and more easily the limestone will succumb to erosion.

In this way, underground rivers, streams, runoff, rain, and underground water pooled in caves have all carved out gaps and caverns in the weak limestone bedrock.
