Answer: The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

Explanation:

Ozone layer prevents the harmful radiation from entering the earth's surface.

Ultraviolet radiation is very harmful radiation. Exposure of this radiation can cause Skin cancer. It is the main cause of the sunburn.

The depletion of the ozone layer is due to CFC (chloro fluoro carbon) which is widely used in air conditioner and refrigeration.

CFC is broken down by ultraviolet radiation. Then, the chlorine is released. This chlorine reacts with oxygen. In this way, it destroys the ozone molecule.

An elevator lifts a person 24.4 m with a force of 300. N in 15.0 s. What is the power of the elevator?
scoray [572]
We have: Power = Force × Displacement/Time
Here, Force = 300 N
Displacement = 24.4 m
Time = 15 s

Substitute their values in the formula:
P = 300 × 24.4/15
P = 20 × 24.4
P = 488

Finally, Option B is your final answer.

Hope this helps!!

Predict which molecule will show a similar relationship between its heat of fusion and its heat vaporization that water does
BaLLatris [955]

Question:

A) C6H6

B) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2COH6

C) NaCl

D) NH3

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) C₆H₆

Explanation:

Heat of fusion = 6.02 kJ/mol

Heat of vaporization =40.8 kJ/mol

Here, we analyze each of the options as follows

A) C₆H₆

Benzene has a melting point of 5.5° C and a boiling point of

80.1 ° C similar to water

Heat of fusion = 9.92 kJ/mol

Heat of vaporization =30.8kJ/mol

B) CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂COH₆

The above compound is more likely solid

C) NaCl solid

D) NH₃ melting point = -77.73 °C boiling point =  -33.34 °C

Of the above, the compounds the one  that closely resembles water is C₆H₆
