Be sure to answer all parts. One gallon of gasoline in an automobiles engine produces on average 9.50 kg of carbon dioxide, whic

h is a greenhouse gas; that is, it promotes the warming of Earth's atmosphere. Calculate the annual production of carbon dioxide in kilograms if there are exactly 40.0 million cars in the United States and each car covers a distance of 7930 mi at a consumption rate of 23.6 miles per gallon. Enter your answer in scientific notation.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

one gallon of gasoline produces 9.50 kg of carbon.

The total number of cars = 40 million

Distance covered by each car = 7930 miles

Consumption rate of the cars per miles traveled is 23.6 miles per gallon.

Hence the annual gasoline consumption by all the cars in the United States of America = (total number of cars × Distance covered by each car) ÷ Consumption rate of the cars per miles

annual gasoline consumption by all the cars = (40000000 × 7930 miles) ÷ 23.6 miles/gallon = `1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons

1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons = 1.344067797*10^{10}\  gallons *\frac{9.50\ kg}{1\ gallon} =1.276864407*10^{11}\ kg\ of \ carbon\ dioxide

Which of the following elements would require the most energy to
umka2103 [35]

Option D:  Chromium would require the most energy to convert one mole of gaseous atoms into gaseous ions each carrying two positive charges.

<h3>What does the term “ionization energy” mean? </h3>

The ionization energy measures an element’s ability for participating in any chemical processes that calls up for the creation of ions or the donation of other electrons.

It is defined as the energy that any electron present in a gaseous atom or ion has in order to absorb so that it comes out of the influence of the nucleus and hence freely move

Ionization energy is also said as the minimum energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron that is present in an isolated gaseous atom or a positive ion or a molecule.

It can be easily connected to the type of chemical bonds that exist between the components in the compounds that they form.

<h3>Which element ionizes most energetically?</h3>

Helium, because it has the highest first ionization energy, whereas francium has one of the lowest.

Which of the following is an example of qualitative
vichka [17]

Answer:

Option =C each mouse in the study has brown ears.

Explanation:

Qualitative:

Qualitative properties are those that can be only observed but not measured in numerical values. These are observed through senses: touch, sight, smell, taste and hear.

For example:

Color, odor, brittleness, taste etc.

Quantitative:

Quantitative properties can be measured in numerical values.

For example:

Melting point, boiling point, conductivity, viscosity, density, hardness and solubility.

In short we can say that qualitative is a measure of quality while the quantitative is a measure of quantity.
