If a climate scientist says, "The CO2 concentration in 2018 was 407.4 ppm." What do they mean? *

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alinara [238K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Ppm <u>means the concentration of vapors or gases</u> expressed in parts per million of polluted air.

Explanation:

In Chemistry and Physics, part per million or PPM is a measure that expresses the number of units of a certain existing substance for every million units of the mixture. (Concentration)

In climate the equation is used so:

  • ppm = parts of polluted air / million parts of air .
  • ppm = Liters of polluted air / 10∧6 Liters  of air.

This is used to find the concentration of gases expressed as parts of gas per million parts of the

 polluted air.

In this case, it would be<u> 407.4L of CO2 per 10∧6L of air.</u>

distinguish between the climates of a coastal location and a location in the center of a large continent.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Climatic condition in coastal regions is milder than the climatic conditions in the continental regions.

Explanation:

Climate in coastal regions is mild. It has both hot summers and winters accompanied by sea breezes. Precipitation and humidity is high in coastal areas. Both the summers and winters have a mild temperature range.

While in continental regions both summer and winters undergo extreme conditions. Summers are extremely hot and winters are extremely cold. They have wide range of climatic exposures such as rainy season, autumn season and spring season in between summer and winter season.

The chemical bonds of carbohydrates and lipids have high potential energy because:
gladu [14]

Answer:

c. Many of their bonds are C-C and C-H

Explanation:

The majority of bonds in  carbohydrates and lipids( being an organic compound) are C-C and C-H. Like glucose, fructose or galactose ,etc.

These bonds are strong and do require a lot of energy to break. Thus, a lot of energy are required to break carbs and lipids into simpler compounds.Therefore, carbohydrates and lipids have high potential energy.

The correct answer is c.

Describe a chemical formula give an example
Vlad1618 [11]

A chemical formula identifies each constituent element by its chemical symbol and indicates the proportionate number of atoms of each element.

<em>For example, the empirical formula of ethanol may be written C2H6O because the molecules of ethanol all contain two carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom.</em>

D( )-Camphor is treated with 5-methoxytryptamine in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride to generate a new molecule, as a sin
Svetach [21]

The reducing agent can approach the carbonyl face of camphor by forming a one carbon bridge (known as an exo attack) or a two carbon bridge (termed endo).

The two resultant stereoisomers are known as isoborneol and borneol (from exo attack) (from endo attack). Gas chromatography (GC) analysis may be used to calculate the ratio of each isomeric alcohol in the mixture. Unfortunately, IR analysis does not permit this.

The stereochemistry of the reaction is regulated in stiff cyclic compounds like camphor and norcamphor by protecting one side of the carbonyl group from the reagent's assault. The hydrogen atom is added to the endo side, creating the exo alcohol isoborneol, while the methyl groups on the one-carbon bridge of camphor screen the approach of the hydride from the "top" or exo side of the two-carbon bridge. You will be asked to guess the main isomeric alcohol created by the norcamphor hydride reduction later in the lab report.
