At the beginning of the industrial revolution in 1850, the CO2concentration was 280 ppm. Today, it is 410 ppm.

Answer:

1. 2.04 W/m²

2. 1.63°C

Explanation:

The radiative force that the Earth receives comes from the Sun. When the Sun rays come to the surface, some of them are absorbed and then it is reflected in the space. The greenhouse gases (like CO2) blocks some of these rays, and then the surface stays warm. The excessive amount of these gases makes the surface warmer, which unbalance the climate on Earth.

1. The variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated based on the concentration of the CO2 by the equation:

ΔF = 5.35*ln(C/C0)

Where C is the final concentration, and C0 is the initial concentration.

ΔF = 5.35*ln(410/280)

ΔF = 2.04 W/m²

2. The temperature change in the Earth's surface caused by the variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated by:

ΔT = 0.8*ΔF

ΔT = 0.8*2.04

ΔT = 1.63 K = 1.63°C

Metals have low ionization energies and readily share their ________ or outer electrons with each other to form an electron ____
Dmitry [639]

Explanation:

Metals are the species which readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. This electron lost by the atom is actually present in its outermost shell which is also known as valence shell.

Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.

When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.  

But when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to addition of number of electrons in the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.

Thus, we can conclude that metals have low ionization energies and readily share their valence or outer electrons with each other to form an electron sea. These electrons are delocalized or shared among all the atoms that are bonded together and can therefore move freely throughout the metal structure.

In order for rock formations to move the plates__________ .
ANEK [815]
Igneous rocks are found where plates diverge, as lava rises and fills the gap between the plates. Igneous rocks also form where plates converge. The subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the Earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes.

29. If a walnut is burned in a
harkovskaia [24]

Energy were released from the walnut, q = 1,673.6 J

<h3>Equation :</h3>

To find the energy using formula,

q = mcΔt

where,

q is charge

m is mass

c is specific heat of water

Δt is change in temperature

So, given

t₁ = 50°C

t₂ = 60°C

m = 40g

c = 4.184 J/g

Now putting the values known,

We get,

q = mc(t₂ - t₁)

q = 40g x 4.184 J/g x  (60 - 50)

q = 167.36 J x 10

q = 1,673.6 J

<h3>What is heat energy?</h3>

Heat is the thermal energy that is transferred when two systems with different surface temperatures come into contact. Heat is denoted by the letters q or Q and is measured in Joules.

To know more about specific heat :
