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>

What happens in the redox reaction below? Select all that apply.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

B- Sodium loses an electron.

D- Fluorine gains an electron.

Sodium is oxidized.

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

        Na  + F →  NaF

In this reaction, Na is the reducing agent. It loses an electron and then becomes oxidized. By so doing, Na becomes isoelectronic with Neon.

Fluorine gains the electron and then becomes reduced. This makes fluorine also isoelectronic with Neon.

This separation of charges on the two species leads to an electrostatic attraction which forms the ionic bonds.
