<u>The troposphere: </u>

H. This layer can have thunderstorms or clear, sunny skies.

A. The biosphere interacts most with this layer. 

<u>The stratosphere:</u>

B. It is the second layer from Earth's surface. 

G. Winds are strong and steady in this layer. 

<u>The mesosphere:</u>

E. It is heated by the ozone layer beneath it. 

D. This layer is where most meteor showers occur. 

<u>The thermosphere :</u>

F. It contains the ionosphere and exosphere. 

C. It contains layers of single, unmixed gas. 

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depending on the Earth's  temperature the atmosphere can be separated into layers. The troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere are those layers. The lowest layer is named as Troposphere (0-10 km from the Earth outer surface), it comprises about 75% of the atmosphere's total air and nearly most the water vapor.

Stratosphere (10-30) includes much of the surface ozone. The change in height temperature arises as this ozone absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. The temperature in Mesosphere (30-50 Km) declines again with height, hitting a minimum of about -90 ° C at the "mesopause." Above this thermosphere (50-400 Km) is settled which is a area where temperatures rise with height once again. The penetration of intense  UV and X-ray radiation from the sun induces this temperature rise.

Answer: 1.  C. polar covalent: electrons shared between silicon and sulfur but attracted more to the sulfur

2. B)  NH_3

3. B) Fluorine

Explanation:

1. A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.

Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of sulphur- electronegativity of silicon = 2.5 -1.8 = 0.7

Thus as electronegativity difference is less than 1.7 , the cond is polar covalent and as electronegativity of sulphur is more , the electrons will be more towards sulphur.

2. A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Example: NH_3

Ionic compound is formed by the transfer of electrons from metals to non metals. Example: Mg_3N_2 , AlCl_3 and LiBr

3.  For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here K is having an oxidation state of +1 and as the compound formed is KZ, the oxidation state of non metallic element Z should be -1. Thus the element Z is flourine which exists as diatomic gas F_2

What is the driving force of convection in the atmosphere and ocean?
BartSMP [9]
<span>Mantle convection is the slow creeping motion of Earth's rocky mantle caused by convection currents carrying heat from the interior of the earth to the surface. It is one of 3 driving forces that causes tectonic plates to move around the Earth's surface.</span>

Determine the maximum amount of Fe that was produced during the experiment. Explain how you determined this amount
VladimirAG [237]

The number of moles of iron produced can be obtained by the use of  stoichiometry.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with mass - mole or mass - volume relationships. Stoichiometric relationships could be used to determine the amount of substance.

Now the reaction equation as well as other details are not shown in this question hence a numerical anwer can not be provided. As such, we can know that the balanced reaction equation can always be used to obtain the amount of iron by stoichiometry.
