B. Earth’s tilt
Earth’s tilt exposes different parts of the earth to varying degrees of sunlight throughout the year, causing seasons.
Increasing the pressure on a reaction involving reacting gases increases the rate of reaction. Changing the pressure on a reaction which involves only solids or liquids has no effect on the rate.
Positive ions are formed by atoms or molecules suffering an inelastic collision with an energetic electron in which an electron is lost from the atom or molecule (electron impact ionization). The degree of ionization of the plasma depends strongly on the electron density and energy distribution in the gas.
