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 .

Which statements below are an appropriate hypothesis in response to this question? Check all that apply. If a substance changes
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

If a substance undergoes a physical change, then it will retain most of its original properties because no new substance is formed.

If a substance undergoes a chemical change, then it will not retain its original properties because a new substance is formed.

Explanation:

So in shorter words its options 2 and 3

Describe the relationship between hydrogen oxygen and water
True [87]
Hydrogen is composed of H atom and oxygen is composed of O atom. For water, it is composed by both H and O atom. If you burn hydrogen in oxygen, you can get water. And if you electrolysis water, you can get hydrogen and oxygen.

Consider the half reactions below for a chemical reaction.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Option A:

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Explanation:

The half reactions given are:

Zn(s) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s)

From the given half reactions, we can see that in the first one, Zn undergoes oxidation to produce Zn^(2+).

While in the second half reaction, Cu^(2+) is reduced to Cu.

Thus, for the overall reaction, we will add both half reactions to get;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

2e^(-) will cancel out to give us;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)
