Ans: carpool

Exhaust from vehicles is a major source of air pollution. Majority of the vehicles use oil as the fuel source. Oil essentially a hydrocarbon which undergoes combustion in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. However, insufficient oxygen inhibits complete combustion and produces toxic CO (carbon monoxide). In addition, oxides of nitrogen (NOx) are also released from vehicle emissions.

Burning of wood releases large amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) which are highly toxic.

Thus, the best way to reduce air pollution is to carpool, which would reduce the number of vehicles on road.

I would say carpool why because you don't know what the hybrid car runs on

What are the net ionic equations of each letter? a) AgNO3 + KCl. . b) Ni(NO3)2 + Na2S. . c) CaCl2 + Na2CO4

Alona [7]

a) AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) --> AgCl (s) + KNO3 (aq) this is balanced chemical equation
AgCl is the precipitate so we shall not split it
Ag+(aq) + NO3 -(aq) + K+ (aq) + Cl-(aq) --> AgCl (s) + K+(aq) + NO3-(aq)
Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) ---> AgCl (s) after removing ions

2 ways friction is helpful and 2 ways it does not

iris [78.8K]

Benefits of friction.

1. Walking. Friction between the soles of our shoes and the ground enables us to walk. The sole of the shoe is held to the ground through friction. This is what is termed as "grip" of the shoe. The more grip a shoes offers, the better and faster we can walk.

2. Writing. Writing using a pen requires friction. It is impossible to hold a pen in the hand without friction because it would slip out. Also the graphite point of the pencil would not make a mark on the paper without friction.

Drawbacks of friction

1. Drag. An aircraft taking off experiences significant friction between it and the air resulting in drag, so much fuel has to be used to create energy to overcome the wind resistance.

2. Surface hindrance. Friction makes moving something heavy from one part of a room to another very difficult. Sliding a large box across the flour takes a lot of energy due to friction between the box and the floor.
