Nearly all elements heavier than hydrogen were not created by the Big Bang. They came from the element factories we call stars. ... This extra heat begins to fuse helium atoms into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen and gives new life to the star. BTW I GOT THIS FROM SAFARI :)

Answer:

They came from the element factories we call stars. Stars are mostly hydrogen throughout most of their lifespans. They are driven by massive and continuous thermonuclear reactions and gravity. ... This extra heat begins to fuse helium atoms into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen and gives new life to the star.

How many molecular orbitals would be present in a molecule with the formula: ch2o?
Zigmanuir [339]
There are two molecular orbitals in the CH2O or formaldehyde. These are designated by the two types of bonding involved. The first is the sigma bonding. It is the head-on overlap of electrons of the C and H atoms. The second molecular orbital is formed from the pi orbital bonding. This is a sideway overlap of electrons between C-O bonding.

Standard temperature and pressure (STP), in the context of gases, refers to a) 298.15 K and 1 atm b) 273.15 K and 1 atm c) 298.1
lina2011 [118]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 273.15 K and 1 atm

Explanation :

STP : STP stands for standard temperature and pressure.

STP conditions :

The temperature is, 0^oC or 273.15K or 32^oF

The pressure is, 1atm or 101.325kPa

The volume is 22.4 L for 1 mole of a substance.

Hence, the correct option is, (B) 273.15 K and 1 atm

Identify the gas law that applies to the following scenario: If a gas in a closed container is pressurized from 18.0 atm to 14.0
nalin [4]

Answer:

Gay-Lussac's Law

Explanation:

The pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature under constant volume. This states the Gay-Lussac's law. The equation is:

P1T2 = P2T1

<em>Where P is pressure and T absolute temperature of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas.</em>

<em />

That means the right option is:

- Gay-Lussac's Law
