Burning of fossil fuels, increase use of vehicles and use of household appliances like refrigerator are the three ways humans have had an impact on the greenhouse effect on Earth

<u> Explanation:</u>

  • Burning of fossil fuels for industrial purpose cause the emission of greenhouse gases such as Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), Carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide.
  • The smoke comes from the vehicles contain carbon dioxide which increases the number of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere .
  • Use of household appliances will also lead to the emission of greenhouses gases mainly, CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) .
  • Increase in the number of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will lead to climate change.

1. What is the theory that is accepted as a true<br> called? I
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Scientific Theory

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a broad explanation for events that is widely accepted as true. To become a theory, a hypothesis must be tested over and over again, and it must be supported by a great deal of evidence. People commonly use the word theory to describe a guess about how or why something happens.

The main reasons why ch4 has a higher vapor pressure at a given temperature when compared to ch3cl is that ch4 and . 2. the main
ale4655 [162]
Vapour pressure of system depends upon intermolecular forces of interaction. Greater the interaction, larger will the vapour pressure, more will be the boiling point.

Answer 1: 
CH4 stands for methane and CH3Cl named as chloromethane. In methane, all the valances of C atom is satisfied by hydrogen. Due to this, it has zero dipole moment. While, in case of CH3Cl, one of the valance is satisfied by an electronegative element i.e. Cl. Due to this, it acquires a polar character. Also, it has a net dipole moment. Due to this, CH3Cl exhibits dipole-dipole intermolecular force of attraction, which is absent in CH4.  Hence, CH3Cl has lower vapor pressure as compared to CH4. 

Answer 2: 
H2CO is named as formaldehyde, while CH3OH is named as methyl alcohol. In case of methyl alcohol, hydrogen atom (an electropositive atom) is bonded to oxygen (a highly electronegative element). This is absent in case of formaldehyde. Due the this, methyl alcohol as greater polarity as compared to formaldehyde. Due the greater polarity, vapour pressure of CH3OH is less as compared to H2CO. 

Answer 3:
<span>CH3CH2CH2OH is named as propanol or propyl alcohol. Propyl alcohol, has longer chain length as compared to methyl alcohol (CH3OH). Both of this compounds has a polar character due to presence of -OH functional group. However, due to long chain of propyl alcohol, polar character increases. This can be attributed the +I effect of CH3 group. Due to this, intermolecular forces of interaction are higher in propanol, thereby decreasing its vapor pressure as compared to methanol. </span>

Use Table 1: Analysis of Decay in the laboratory guide to answer this question: Scientists find a piece of wood that is thought
sashaice [31]
1/2=5750 years, 1/2(1/2)=1/4, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8, (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/6
4 halflives have passed so 4(5750)=23000 years since the tree was chopped down
1000000 atoms (1/2)=500000 atoms(1/2)=250000(1/2)=125000(1/2)=62500 atoms would remain in the wood after 4 halflives
Dinosaurs became extinct around 62 million years ago, so if 14C's half life has a value of 5750 years, it would be gone or in such small amounts that dating would be ineffective today.
As Potassium decays into Argon in 1.3 billion years, apart from volcanic activity, it would enable geologists to effectively date things that are really, really, really old.
