Answer:

worldwide burning of fossil fuels

Explanation:

The heavy usage of the fossil fuels as energy sources for the industry has resulted in much increased emissions of CO2 in the atmosphere. It all started around 200 years ago with the Industrial Revolution. In order for the machines to function, efficient energy sources were needed, and the best thing at that time for that was the coal. Through the burning, the coal manages to release enormous amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. After some time, the oil was discovered as well, and it started to be heavily used as well, further increasing the CO2 emissions. As the technology has been developing more and more, the demand for the usage of the fossil fuels has been increasing constantly, so there's an ever growing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.

What specifically determines how much energy is available in a molecular
HACTEHA [7]

C  The number and types of bonds within the molecule.

Explanation:

In a molecule, the number and types of bonds present determines the amount of available energy therein.

When bonds are broken or formed, energy is usually released.

  • Elements combine with one another in order to attain stability in this state.
  • Through this process, they form bonds by attraction.
  • Where atoms exchange their valence electrons by losing or gaining it, electrovalent bonds form.
  • In covalent molecules, electrons are usually shared between atoms.
  • An attraction result from this type of interaction.
  • The bond formed stores energy in the process.
  • When bonds are broken, energy is usually released. The energy accrues when the bond was being formed.
  • In molecules, we have covalent bond.

The mass number of an atom is 15, and its atomic number is 7. The atom probably has... 8 neutrons in the nucleus. about as much
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.

_NaHCO(s) --&gt; _CO2+_NaCO(s)+_H2O<br><br>balance the equation​
elena55 [62]

The balanced equation :

2NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

NaHCO(s) --> _CO2+_NaCO(s)+_H2O

Required

The balanced equation

Solution

Maybe the equation should be like this :

NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O

Give a coefficient

NaHCO₃⇒aCO₂ + bNa₂CO₃+cH₂O

Make an equation

Na, left=1, right=2b⇒2b=1⇒b=1/2

H, left=1, right=2c⇒2c=1⇒c=1/2

C, left=1, right=a+b⇒a+b=1⇒a+1/2=1⇒a=1/2

The equation becomes :

NaHCO₃⇒1/2CO₂ +1/2Na₂CO₃+1/2H₂O x2

2NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O
