  • Answer: <em><u>The compounds containing CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are mainly responsible for ozone layer depletion as these compounds react with ozone in the presence of ultraviolet rays to form oxygen molecule and thus, destroying ozone.</u></em>

Explanation: <em><u>Human activities cause the emission of halogen source gases that contain chlorine and bromine atoms. These emissions into the atmosphere ultimately lead to stratospheric ozone depletion. The source gases that contain only carbon, chlorine, and fluorine are called chlo- rofluorocarbons usually abbreviated as CFCs.</u></em>

Answer:

CFC gases and methane gases.

Explanation:

  • Chlorofluorocarbons from the air conditioners are one of the main culprits responsible for ozone layer depletion, that react with the airborne particles in the presence of Sun's radiation breaking the ozone into oxygen atoms and as result creating large ozone hole over the planet.
  • Emission of harmful toxic gases of carbon monoxide and dioxide into the air through the vehicular exhaust also creates an atmosphere full of atmospheric black cloud.
  • Apart from this the various organism taking up O2 release methane a natural gas which can modify and trap this heat content on the earth burning of polybags and tires fossil fuels and coal also release other harmful gases which are considered to be reactive with the atmosphere.

The effusion rate of H2 molecules is 4.342 times that of an unknown gas. Determine the molar mass of the unknown gas.
Grace [21]

The effusion rate of H2 molecules is 4.342 times that of an unknown gas. Determine the molar mass of the unknown gas. You can write the formula for Graham's law of diffusion or effusion of gases as: rate 1 / rate 2 = √ (mass 2 / mass 1) , where: rate 1 and rate 2 - Rates of effusion or diffusion of Gas 1 and 2, respectively, measured moles per unit time

<h3>What is H2 molecules?</h3>

The chemical element hydrogen is represented by the letter H and atomic number 1. The lightest element is hydrogen. Under normal circumstances, hydrogen is a gas made up of diatomic molecules with the formula H2. It is non-toxic, tasteless, colorless, odorless, and extremely flammable. In the cosmos, hydrogen is the most prevalent chemical, making up around 75% of all ordinary matter. [note 1] Plasma hydrogen makes up the majority of stars like the Sun. On Earth, hydrogen mostly takes the form of molecules like water and organic substances. Each atom of hydrogen's most prevalent isotope, 1H, has one proton, one electron, and no neutrons.

Complete the following conversion.<br> 25.0 °C =<br> °F
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 25°C=77°F

Explanation:

FORMULA

F=9/5 C+32

-----------------------------------

Given: C=25°

F=9/5 C+32

F=9/5 (25)+32

F=45+32

F=77°

Hope this helps!! :)

How do you know how many an atom contains and how many electrons the entire ion has either lost or gained?
Mkey [24]
If you mean how many electrons an atom contains then this is the same as the atomic number of the atom. For example, the atomic number of oxygen is 8 so it contains 8 protons. Since in a stable atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons, oxygen contains 8 electrons.

If you have an ion and you want to know how many electrons it has lost or gained, you look at the charge. If it is a 2+ ion then it has lost two electrons, if it's a - ion then it has gained an electron. The number of electrons in an ion is the atomic number +/- the charge shown. For example a Mg2+ ion would have 10 electrons as a magnesium atom has 12 electrons and loses two to form the 2+ ion.
