Carbon is cycled through the hydrosphere and geosphere through biological, chemical, geological, and human activity. <span>Let's take a forest, for example. These autotrophs take in carbon dioxide (CO2) during photosynthesis. They then release oxygen to the environment and give organisms that perform cellular respiration enough oxygen. Then, the organisms that perform cellular respiration breathe out CO2 that can be used by autotrophs. The consumers can also eat the autotrophs and release CO2 as they breathe out.</span>
<span>When rainwater falls from clouds in the atmosphere, CO2 is dissolved into the drops of rain. The rain (some of it) then goes into oceans and is dissolved into the ocean with the CO2. Then, it comes back from the water and floats up into the atmosphere again. </span> <span>Rocks at the bottom of the ocean are naturally turned into carbonated rocks, and it releases CO2 through volcanoes. </span><span>Also, it can convert organic matter into fossil fuels.
</span><span>Humans take fossil fuels from the Earth and use them as a source of fuel. This naturally releases the carbon dioxide in them, as they are converted into carbon over a very long period of time. </span><span>Also, humans sometimes burn forests. The fire releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
</span><span>The same processes that occur geologically and biologically occur in the ocean. Green algae take in CO2 and use it the same way.</span>
If two different elements combine separately with a fixed mass of a third element, the ratio of the masses in which they do so are either the same as or a simple multiple of the ratio of the masses in which they combine with each other.
Answer : The resulting solution will have a pH of 7.
Explanation:
Whenever acid and base reacts with each other to form water molecule is called Neutralization reaction. This water molecules is formed from the hydronium ion () from acid and hydroxide ion() from base.
When the equal volumes of acid and base of equal strength are combined, the resulting pH of the solution becomes 7.
The pH 7 value means that the solution is neutral.
NaCl is an ionic solid. and ions are held together by strong coloumbic attractive force. Hence NaCl has highest boiling point'
Ar is a monoatomic molecule. Hence only weak london dispersion force exists between Ar atom/molecules. Hence it requires lowest amount of energy to boil and thereby possess lowest boiling point.
and are polar protic molecules. Hence they possess london dispersion force, dipole-dipole force and hydrogen bonding as intermolecular forces.
Dipole-dipole force is stronger in than due to more polar O-H bond than N-H bond. Also molecular weight of is higher than . So, more energy is required to boil . So, has higher boiling point than
Calcium atoms have smaller radii than potassium atoms since calcium atoms have a greater nuclear charge. Each calcium atom will be closer to the delocalized electrons. Thus, the bonds in calcium will be stronger than that in potassium.
