The molecules vibrate when the substance is heated, and the shape of the substance begins to form a different shape. For example: when you hear up metal it will melt becuase its molecules are changing and moving.

Molecule movement. Ice is so hard because molecules are not moving, and the space between them are small. Hot water has bigger space between molecules that are always in motion.

Be sure to answer all parts. Nitric oxide, NO·, is a radical thought to cause ozone destruction by a mechanism similar to that o

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

See image attached and explanation

Explanation:

The stratospheric ozone layer is very important in absorbing high-energy ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to living systems on earth. The concentration of ozone in the stratosphere is determined by both thermal and photochemical pathways for its decomposition. Nitric oxide, NO, is a trace constituent in the stratosphere that reacts with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide, NO2, and the diatomic oxygen molecule. The nitrogen-oxygen bond in NO2 is relatively weak. When an NO2 molecule encounters an oxygen atom, it transfers an oxygen, forming O2 and NO. The chemical reactions involved are formations of NO2 following by reaction of NO2 with atomic oxygen for form NO and O2. The sum of both reactions show that the overall reaction is simply the reaction of ozone with atomic oxygen to form two molecules of molecular oxygen. Hence, NO only serves as a catalyst, it does not undergo a permanent change itself.

How can constraints be used to help define the problem?

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Constraints are restrictions that need to be placed upon variables

Explanation:

Constraints are restrictions (limitations, boundaries) that need to be placed upon variables used in equations that model real-world situations. It is possible that certain solutions which make an equation true mathematically, may not make any sense in the context of a real-world word problem.

What is the most important factor in determining climates.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Latitude - Many factors influence the climate of a region. The most important factor is latitude because different latitudes receive different amounts of solar radiation. The maximum annual temperature of the Earth, showing a roughly gradual temperature gradient from the low to the high latitudes.
