If it is just a comparison, then it is nice to state that an Adult African Elephant can usually weigh up to 6.6 tons. Just regular 6.6 tons. No millions, no billions, no hundreds. So the weight of that elephant is 0.00000012% of the total amount of carbon released through burning fossil fuels. 

In all fairness to the elephant, the atmosphere is really heavy and is much more bigger than an elephant, so this isn't really a surprising answer

He had earned the enmity of the local populace by enforcing the restrictive Navigation Acts.

He had infuriated Puritans in Boston by promoting the Church of England, which was rejected by many Nonconformist New England colonists.

When news of the overthrow of James II (1688) reached Boston, the colonists revolted, deposing Andros and imprisoning him.

His requirement that landholders take out new land patents and his limitations upon town meetings and rights of local taxation all aroused sharp resentment in colonial America.

Consider the following reaction, equilibrium concentrations, and equilibrium constant at a particular temperature. Determine the
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Kc = [C2H5OH]/{[C2H4][H2O]}

[H2O] = [C2H5OH]/{[C2H4] x Kc}

[H2O] = 1.69/(0.015 x 9.0 x 10^3) = 0.013 M

Explanation:

Kc is the equilibrium constant, it is egal to the product of the equilibrium concentration of the product dived by the product of the equilibrium concentration of the reactants.

with that formula and what is given, male the equilibrium concentration of H2O the subject of the formula and calculate its concentration by substituting given values.
