Answer: Using more fossil fuels
Explanation: Burning fossil fuels releases Green House gasses into the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps in heat, which causes global temperatures to increase.
The energy transformations are similar because they result into radiant energy.
As for the lamp, Electrical energy is transformed into light when the filament
or mercury vapor glows on passage of current.
The fire- chemical energy is turned to light energy during the combustion of carbon. Both products comprise of ultraviolet radiation which is a form of radiant energy.
The answer is A-Gravity. Why? This is because B and C are examples of chemical weathering and not mechanical. Although choice D may seem viable lava intrusion is not a direct cause of mechanical weathering although lava pushing upward may help in aiding mechanical weathering it would not be considered a big enough cause, thus gravity is the correct answer.
Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.
When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.
Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).
Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.
The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.
Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).
