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

"What makes a bond polar"?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter A.

Explanation:

A Covalent bond polar is between 2 non metals where one atom is bigger than the other one so the distribution of charges creates this polarity.

A. One atom attracts shared electrons more strongly than the other atom  This is the correct definition of bond polar, one element is bigger and stronger than the other element.

B. One atom has transferred its electrons completely to another atom  This definition is incorrect, it is the definition of ionic bonding.

C. A sea of electrons has been created between the elements  This definition is incorrect for the polar bond, it describes a metallic bonding.

D. Two atoms are sharing electrons with equal attraction This definition is incorrect for a polar bond, but is the correct definition for nonpolar bonding.
