Answer: Increase in the greenhouse effect

Explanation:  Green house effect is a phenomenon which takes place in the earths lower atmosphere making it a place to live.

In this process, the infrared radiations emitted by the sun are being trapped by some of the gases which are known as Greenhouse Gases.

These rays emitted from the sun are very harmful and they could cause hazardous diseases if reached to the earths atmosphere.

Greenhouse Gases are Nitrous Oxide, Carbon dioxide, Methane , water vapor and ozone.

Thus if the concentration of any of the gases will increase in the atmosphere, it will lead to the increase in the greenhouse effect.

What causes the difference in bond angles in carbon dioxide and water?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer is: C) the fact that the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom is greater in the case of water.

Carbon(IV) oxide is nonpolar because CO₂ is linear molecule and the oxygen atoms are symmetrical (bond angles 180°).

Water is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule.

Oxygen atom in water molecule has sp3 hybridization. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is approximately 104.45°.

Oxygen atom has atomic number 8, it means it has eight protons and eight electrons, so atom has neutral charge. Oxygen is a nonmetal.

Electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.

Oxygen atom has six valence electrons , two lone pairs and two electrons that form two sigma bonds with hydrogen atoms.

Carbon is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6, which means it has 6 protons and six electrons. Four valence electrons are in 2s and 2p orbitals.  

Electron configuration of carbon atom: ₆C 1s² 2s² 2p².  

In carbon dioxide, carban has sp hybridization with no lone pairs.
