<h2>Let us explain about green house gases</h2>

Explanation:

Green house effect

It can be explained as :

The sun emit radiations that consist of infra red rays , ultra violet rays and visible light .
The infra red rays (responsible for heating ) when come from sun , it travels through atmosphere and reaches earth surface .
On striking the earth surface , it gets reflected and reflected infra red ray has greater wavelength .
Then this reflected rays moves back through atmosphere .
On doing so , they encounter certain gas molecules like carbon dioxide , methane etc .
This gases absorb these rays and do not let them to escape through them .
As a result, they get trapped .
As we have already mention that they cause heating effect , due to this property they raise the temperature of atmosphere leading global warming .

Bronze is an alloy made of mostly copper (Cu) and tin (Sn). What type of bond forms bronze?

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. Metallic bond

Explanation:

Think about it: copper and tin are both common metals. That's how we know it's a metallic bond!

Why not B: Covalent bonds are between two nonmetals.

Why not C: Ionic bonds are between a nonmetal and a metal.

Why not D: Paired bond isn't a common phrase in chemistry.

What mass, in grams, of CO2 and H2O<br> is formed from 2.55 mol of propane?

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

336.6 grams of CO₂ and 183.6 grams of H₂O are formed from 2.55 moles of propane.

Explanation:

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of reactant and product participate in the reaction:

C₃H₈: 1 mole
O₂: 5 moles
CO₂: 3 moles
H₂O: 4 moles

Being the molar mass of each compound:

C₃H₈: 44 g/mole
O₂: 16 g/mole
CO₂: 44 g/mole
H₂O: 18 g/mole

Then, by stoichiometry, the following quantities of mass participate in the reaction:

C₃H₈: 1 mole* 44 g/mole= 44 grams
O₂: 5 moles* 16 g/mole= 80 grams
CO₂: 3 moles* 44 g/mole= 132 grams
H₂O: 4 moles* 18 g/mole= 72 grams

So you can apply the following rules of three:

If by stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ forms 132 grams of CO₂, 2.55 moles of C₃H₈ how much mass of CO₂ will it form?

$mass of CO_{2} =\frac{2.55 moles of C_{3} H_{8}*132 gramsof CO_{2} }{ 1 mole of C_{3} H_{8}}$

mass of CO₂= 336.6 grams

If by stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ forms 72 grams of H₂O, 2.55 moles of C₃H₈ how much mass of H₂O will it form?

$mass of H_{2}O =\frac{2.55 moles of C_{3} H_{8}*72 gramsof H_{2}O }{ 1 mole of C_{3} H_{8}}$

mass of H₂O= 183.6 grams

<u><em>336.6 grams of CO₂ and 183.6 grams of H₂O are formed from 2.55 moles of propane.</em></u>

What metalloid has commonly been used as an insecticide due<br> to its effectiveness as a poison.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Arsenic.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since insecticides are substances that act as poisons to get rid of insects in order to prevent their presence and/or reproduction in houses, companies, crops and others, a substance that has been widely used is the metalloid arsenic due to its direct affection of the insect's body (movement, performance, cellular functions).

In addition, high levels of arsenic in food could cause arsenic poisoning in humans as well, that is why such practice must be properly performed and by using the correct security protocol.

Best regards!
