The answer is "D" loss of atmospheric ozone

Answer:

The answer is loss of atmospheric ozone

Explanation:

There are two types of change in chemistry, they are physical and chemical change.

Physical changes are characterized by the following

  • they are easily reversible
  • no new substance is formed
  • they cannot be represented by a chemical equation

Chemical changes are characterized by the following

  • they are not easily reversible
  • new substances are mostly formed
  • they are usually represented by chemical equations

When a glass breaks, the broken parts are still glasses, no new particle is formed and we can't represent the process with a chemical equation

Frost are just iced-water crystals that are formed on objects in an open environment. They are formed from water and as such they reverse back to water (no new substance is formed) when the temperature increases and the process cannot be represented by a chemical equation.

The nail that has been attracted by a magnet can be easily removed and no new substance is formed in the process. The process of magnetization cannot be represented by a chemical equation

The loss of atmospheric ozone is a chemical process because ozone cannot be easily formed/broken as this requires several processes. During depletion of ozone (O3), oxygen gas (O2) is formed hence a new substance is formed and this process can be represented with the use of chemical equation. Let's take the depletion of ozone by chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs) as an example.

When CFCs are broken by sunlight, they break up into there components and chlorine (Cl) is released and when that occurs, the following reaction takes place after the break up

Cl + O3 ⇒ ClO + O2

we can see from the chemical equation above that depletion of atmospheric ozone is a chemical process

5. How can you tell the difference between CuS and Cu2S
puteri [66]

Answer:

Density, melting point. and magnetic properties  

Explanation:

I can think of three ways.

1. Density

The density of Cu₂S is 5.6 g/cm³; that of CuS is 4.76 g/cm³.

It should be possible to distinguish these even with high school equipment.

2. Melting point

Cu₂S melts at 1130 °C (yellowish-red); CuS decomposes at 500 °C (faint red).

A Bunsen burner can easily reach these temperatures.

3. Magnetic properties

You can use a Gouy balance to measure the magnetic susceptibilities.

In Cu₂S the Cu⁺ ion has a d¹⁰ electron configuration, so all the electrons are paired and the solid is diamagnetic.

In CuS the Cu²⁺ ion has a d⁹ electron configuration, so all there is an unpaired electron and the solid is paramagnetic.

A sample of Cu₂S will be repelled by the magnetic field and show a decrease in weight.

A sample of CuS will be attracted by the magnetic field and show an increase in weight.

In the picture below, you can see the sample partially suspended between the poles of an electromagnet.

In the flame test, barium ions produce a green flame whereas calcium ions produce a red flame. In your own words, explain these
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The Barium flame is green because it is a difficult flame to excite, therefore for it to trigger a flame it is necessary that it be too excited for it to occur.

The reddish color of calcium is due to its high volatility and it is sometimes very difficult to differentiate it from strontium.the compression of these elements is due to being able to make them work during combustion

Explanation:

The flame test is a widely used qualitative analysis method to identify the presence of a certain chemical element in a sample. To carry it out you must have a gas burner. Usually a Bunsen burner, since the temperature of the flame is high enough to carry out the experience (a wick burner with an alcohol tank is not useful). The flame temperature of the Bunsen burner must first be adjusted until it is no longer yellowish and has a bluish hue to the body of the flame and a colorless envelope. Then the tip of a clean platinum or nichrome rod (an alloy of nickel and chromium), or failing that of glass, is impregnated with a small amount of the substance to be analyzed and, subsequently, the rod is introduced into the flame, trying to locate the tip in the least colored part of the flame.

The electrons in these will jump to higher levels from the lower levels and immediately (the time that an electron can be in higher levels is of the order of nanoseconds), they will emit energy in all directions in the form of electromagnetic radiation (light) of frequencies characteristics. This is what is called an atomic emission spectrum.

At a macroscopic level, it is observed that the sample, when heated in the flame, will provide a characteristic color to it. For example, if the tip of a rod is impregnated with a drop of Ca2 + solution (the previous notation indicates that it is the calcium ion, that is, the calcium atom that has lost two electrons), the color observed is brick red .

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

oxygen

Explanation:

because the 2nd shell is not complete which is suppose to be 8 and since oxygen is 8 it first shell is 2 which is complete and the second shell which is 6 is not complete because we all know that 2+6=8 but the standard shell is
