The data on Climate change is as explained below-

Explanation:

Climate change is the ominous “hard truth” concurrently. However, it is not the first time that climate change is happening. In geological history, we find plenty of evidence of climate change.  

The most important and famous of all such changes is the climate change that occurred during the Mesozoic era leading to the extinction of Dinosaurus. The reason behind these all climate changes was different. However, the climate change we are witnessing at present has something extra to all this natural stuff.

The present climate change is fuelled by anthropogenic activities at large. Large scale emission of greenhouse gases possibly from burning of fossil fuels ever since the Industrial revolutions in the late 18th century has altered the chemical composition of atmospheric gases. In addition to the use of fossil fuels other activities such as agriculture, coal-based power plants, deforestation and other such activities have been instrumental in degrading the serene balance between different atmospheric gases.

The evidence of the present climate change can be gauged in-

  1. The rise in global average temperature-Earth’s mean temperature has risen by around 1° C ever since the 19th century. 2017 proved to be the warmest year in the record.
  2. Oceans have been net absorber of the heat. This has led to the warming up of oceans. This severely hampers and impact marine flora and fauna
  3. Deglaciation- the increasing temperature has manifested in the form of shrinking ice-sheets. Large icebergs are calving and thus has some serious long-term impact for the sustenance of mankind.
  4. Rise in the mean sea level- The sea level has risen by almost 10 inches since last century. This increase is all set to increase in future thus endangering the lives and livelihood of the coastal communities.

All the leading personalities of the time including the ex-president of the US Mr Barak Obama emphasised the importance of climate change and urged the global community to tackle it at earliest. In his words, he mentioned, “No other challenge poses as great a threat to the future generation as the climate change”. In addition to Mr Obama, noted climate activist Greta Thunberg described the climate change to be the greatest crisis to the humanity that it has ever faced.

Therefore, it can be safely argued that it’s urgent to talk and act tough on climate change. Climate change has transitioned into a multi-headed monster capable enough to devastate the entire mankind. It has done this earlier and sure to carry it further on.

1. 2KCIO3, -- 2KCI + 302<br> How many moles of O2 will be produced from 2.25 moles of KCIO3?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

3.375moles of O₂

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

                   2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

Number of moles of KClO₃  = 2.25moles

Now;

To find the number of moles of O₂ produced we use known number of moles.

So;

                  2 mole of KClO₃ will produce 3 moles of O₂

                 2.25moles of KClO₃ will produce \frac{2.25 x 3}{2}   = 3.375moles of O₂

Using standard heats of formation, calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction. 2NH3(g) 3N2O(g)4N2(g) 3H2O
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: \Delta H^{0} = -879.15 kJ/mol

Explanation: <u>Heats</u> <u>of</u> <u>formation</u> is the amount of heat necessary to create 1 mol of a compound from its molecular constituents. The basic conditions the substance is formed is at standard conditions: 1 atm and 25°C. Each compound has its own heat of formation per mol of compound (kJ/mol), but to an element is assigned a value of zero.

<u>Standard</u> <u>Enthalpy</u> <u>Change</u> is defined as the heat absorbed or released when a reaction takes place. It can be positive or negative, which means reaction is endothermic or exothermic, respectively.

Enthalpy change is calculated as the difference between the sum of heat formation of products and the sum of heat formation of the reactants:

\Delta H^{0}=\Sigma H^{0}_{f}_{(products)}-\Sigma H^{0}_{f}_{(reactants)}

For the reaction

   2NH₃   +      3N₂O   →      4N₂    +     3H₂O

2(-46.2)   +     3(82.05)      4(0)    +    3(-241.8)

\Delta H^{0}=3(-241.8)-[ 2(-46.2)+3(82.05)]

\Delta H^{0}=-725.4-153.75

\Delta H^{0}=-879.15

<u>The standard enthalpy change for the reaction is </u>\Delta H^{0}=-879.15<u> kJ</u>

A helium filled balloon has a volume of 2.48L and a pressure of 150kpa the volume of the balloon increases to 2.98L what is the
Natali [406]

Answer:

THE NEW PRESSURE OF THE HELIUM GAS IS 124kPa AFTER THE VOLUME WAS INCREASED FROM 2.48 L TO 2.98 L

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law which states that at constant temperature, the pressure of a given gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically,

P1 V1 = P2 V2

P1 = 150 kPa = 150 * 10^3 Pa

V1 = 2.48 L

V2 = 2.98 L

P2 = ?

Rearranging the formula making P2 the subject of the equation, we obtain;

P2 = P1 V1 / V2

P2 = 150 * 10^3 * 2.48 / 2.98

P2 = 372 * 10 ^3 / 2.98

P2 = 124.83 * 10^3 Pa or 124.8kPa

In other words, the new pressure of the helium gas after its volume was increased from 2.48 L to 2.98 L is 124.8kPa.
