Your neighbor Mr. Turner doesn't think that alternative energy resources like water, wind, or solar are important. "Why not just

do what we have always done," he asks. Justify the use of alternative energy resources instead of fossil fuels with at least one real life example to help him understand.

Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.

However, the use of solar panels is environment friendly. Solar power is renewable at absolutely no cost to supply energy infinitely.  Also, it is very low maintenance. Once installed, the solar power system can last twenty to thirty years.

Similarly wind (turbines) and water (hydroelectric power plants) are an endless source of energy without negatively affecting the environment.

Answer:

I could tell Mr. Turner that burning fossil fuels emit a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, participate in acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter. However, the use of solar panels is environment friendly. Solar power is renewable at absolutely no cost to supply energy infinitely.  Also, it is very low maintenance. Once installed, the solar power system can last twenty to thirty years.

explain how fossils and other materials can tell us about the conditions of an area at the time it existed.

Well, if the fossil is from the sea/is an ocean animal (for example a fish) , then you can say that the land was once underwater. If the fossil is from a desert, you can say that the land was once a desert, etc.

If the compound below containing three types of alcohols were exposed to only 1 equivalent of hcl, what major product would you
sergey [27]

The question is incomplete. The image showing the compound and the options in the questions is attached.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

If we closely examine the structure of the compound given in the question, we will notice that the reaction must involve the substitution of the hydroxyl group by chlorine in the parent molecule.

This occurs when the -OH group combines with H^+ to form -OH2^+ which is a good leaving group.

Compound B is formed because, when -OH2^+ leaves, a carbocation is created. This carbocation is stabilized by the alkyl groups attached to the carbon atom bearing the leaving group by +I inductive effect. This carbon atom bearing the leaving group is a tertiary carbon atom thus it forms a more stable carbocation. Hence the product formed.
