Why is global warming called the greenhouse effect?

Since greenhouses are designed to trap in heat, we call global warming the “greenhouse effect” because it essentially does the same thing. “Greenhouse” gases (gases that easily trap heat) clog up the outer layers of the atmosphere and prevents heat from leaving the planet. The gases trap heat, just like greenhouses.

How many moles of carbonate are there in sodium carbonate​
vaieri [72.5K]

There are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.

<h3>CALCULATE MOLES:</h3>
  • The number of moles of carbonate (CO3) in sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbonate in the compound by the molar mass of the compound.

  • no. of moles of CO3 = mass of CO3 ÷ molar mass of Na2CO3

  • Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 23(2) + 12 + 16(3)

  • = 46 + 12 + 48 = 106g/mol

  • mass of CO3 = 12 + 48 = 60g

  • no. of moles of CO3 = 60/106

  • no. of moles of CO3 = 0.566mol

  • Therefore, there are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.

Green plants use light from the sun to drive photosynthesis. photosynthesis is a chemical reaction in which water and carbon dio
Korolek [52]

<span>The equation that represents the process of photosynthesis is: </span>

<span>
</span>

<span>6CO2+12H2O+light->C6H12O6+6O2+6H2O</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>Photosynthesis is the process in plants to make their food. This involves the use carbon dioxide to react with water and make sugar or glucose as the main product and oxygen as a by-product. Since we are not given the mass of CO2 in this problem, we assume that we have 1 g of CO2 available. We calculate as follows:</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>1 g CO2 ( 1 mol CO2 / 44.01 g CO2 ) ( 12 mol H2O / 6 mol CO2 ) ( 18.02 g / 1 mol ) = 0.82 g of H2O is needed</span>

<span>
</span>

However, if the amount given of CO2 is not one gram, then you can simply change the starting value in the calculation and solve for the mass of water needed.
