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.

CH4+(x)O2=CO2 +(Y)H2O
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=2+? +H=?
H=4>>Y=2
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=(2+2) +H=4
C=1 +H=4 +O=4 = C=1 +O=4 +H=4
O=4>>X=2
CH4+(2)O2 =CO2 +(2)H2O

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion

DanielleElmas [232]

The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons.

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.

imagine you are a particle of air explain your journey in the atmosphere as you beacome a heated particle if you answer it clear

enyata [817]

Well when a particle of air is becomes heated it rises, right? So you could write some like you started off close to the earth (aka the troposphere) until you became heated then you started to rise and as you reached higher elevations you cooled down and you were recycled into cool air and you moved back down and became new fresh cool air until the next time you'll become heated and rise again to be recycled into fresh cool new air.

Specific Heat Practice

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Specific Heat of water = 4.186 J/(g-C)

J/(g-C) multiplied by g and C results in J

4.186 * 540 * (95-32) = 142 407 .72 J
