If the presence in greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere continues to increase at the present rate, scientists predict that in

the next 50 to 100 years, atmospheric temperatures could rise by 2oC.
All of these could be consequences of global warming EXCEPT
A) an increase in arid and semi-arid areas on Earth.
B) permanent flooding of low-lying coastal wetlands.
C) an increase in square miles of polar ice covering Earth.
D) a rise in the amount of vegetation found in tundra and taiga regions.

Answer: C, increase in polar icee.

Explanation: The rise in temperature is already causing the polar ice to melt down the rise in vegetation in Tundra and Tyga regions could be seen because they are very cold areas and temperature increase may help vegetations to survive.

Al of these will be the consequences except C, increase in polar ice. The rise in temperature is already causing the polar ice to melt down. The further increase in temperature will make the situation of the polar ice worse. the rise in vegetation in Tundra and Tyga regions could be seen because they are very cold areas and temperature increase may help vegetations to survive.

How is enthalpy used to predict whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic?
Radda [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>329.48 KJ/mol heat is released by the combustion of 2 molof methane</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The value of enthalpy determines whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. If the enthalpy change is positive, then the reaction is endothermic (heat or energy released) and if the enthalpy change is negative then the reaction is exothermic (heat or energy absorbed).

2CH_4(g)+4O_2(g) => 2CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

\Delta H \ reaction=[ 2(\Delta HfCO_2)+ 4(\Delta HfH_2O)]-[2(\Delta HfCH_4)+4(\Delta HfO_2)]

                            =2 ( -(393.5 KJ)/mol)-[2( -74.6 KJ/mol)+4(-241.82 KJ/mol)]

                            = -787 KJ/mol-[ -149.2 KJ/mol-967.28 KJ/mol]

                           = -787 KJ/mol+1116.48 KJ/mol

                                          =329.48 KJ/mol

<em>In this question, </em><em>the enthalpy of formation</em><em> has positive value and hence the </em><em>reaction is endothermic</em><em> in which the heat is released. </em>

Describe how cooperativity of oxygen binding in hemoglobin is advantageous for the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the tis
Nostrana [21]
The affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen is less than its structural analog myoglobin. However, this does not affect hemoglobin's usefulness for the body; on the contrary, it allows hemoglobin to be a  more efficient carrier than myoglobin. This is because hemoglobin can release oxygen more easily than can myoglobin. It is both important for oxygen to be carried to different areas and also to be released when needed. The higher affinity of a given protein for oxygen, the harder it will be for that protein to release oxygen when needed. Therefore, hemoglobin's lower affinity for oxygen serves it well because it allows hemoglobin to release oxygen more easily in the body.
