Oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2) do not have much greenhouse effect, but several trace gases including carbon dioxide (CO2), methan

e (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and various chlorofluorocarbons are important greenhouse gases. The primary mechanism by which these greenhouse gases warm the Earth is:A.Preventing convection currents that take heat aloft, in the same way that the glass of a greenhouse stops convection currents and so makes the air in the greenhouse warmer.B.Raising the atmospheric pressure, because squeezing air warms it, as we saw at the Redwoods.C.Experiencing chemical reactions with each other, which release energy.D.Absorbing some of the infrared radiation emitted from the Earth.E.Making politicians mad, so they give speeches that heat the air.

Answer:A.Preventing convection currents that take heat aloft, in the same way that the glass of a greenhouse stops convection currents and so makes the air in the greenhouse warmer.

Explanation: when ultraviolet solar radiation penetrates into the Earth's atomosphere and heats it,

the conventional radiation is supposed to be radiated back into the atmosphere as heat.however this is prevented from happening due to green house gases,they absorb the radiant heat and retain this heat within the Earth's environment and so behaves like the glass barrier in green houses.these green house gases trap heat within the Earth causing global warming .

Compound A melts at 220.5-222.1 degrees C and compound B melts at 221.2 - 223.4 degrees C. When mixed together, the mixture of A
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

NO, they are not the same compound

Explanation:

Given that;

Compound A melts at  220.5 °C - 222.1 °C;      &

Compound B melts at   221.2 °C - 223.4 °C

It is seen from above that there is little difference in the melting point of Compound A and B. This little difference can be as a result of factors associated when carrying the melting process or because different methods were employed in the establishing their melting points.

Also, we were told that when they were both mixed together ,  the mixture of compound A and B melts at 216.4 °C  - 224.6 °C.

This statement has largely indicated that both compounds are not the same at all, because if they were, the mixture of compound A and B melting point must be identical to one of the individual compound's melting point either from compound A or from compound B.

Consider the reaction:
stich3 [128]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{-851.4 kJ/mol}}

Explanation:

2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s); ΔᵣH = ?

The formula for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products is

\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} = \sum \Delta_{\text{f}} H^{\circ} (\text{products}) - \sum\Delta_{\text{f}}H^{\circ} (\text{reactants})

                            2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s)

ΔfH°/kJ·mol⁻¹:         0         -824.3         -1675.7         0

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} & = & [1(-1675.7) + 2(0)] - [2(0) - 1(-824.3)]\\& = & -1675.7 + 824.3\\& = & \textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}\\\end{array}\\\text{The enthalpy change is } \large \boxed{\textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}}

What is insulin's structure?<br> a.quaternary<br> b.secondary<br> c.primary<br> d.tertiary
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Quaternary structure of proteins is composed of two or more polypeptide chains. Insulin has two; one alpha  and one beta chain. The two chains are joined together by disulfide bonds at two points (at cysteines). Other examples of quaternary proteins structures are DNA polymerase and hemoglobin.
