Answer: True.

Explanation: The green house gases have the ability to trap heat and make the environment temperature suitable for living.

Like green house gases, clouds also trap heat and this is the reason why the temperature of the earth is more on a cloudy day as compared on a clear day.

Hence, this proves that the clouds can also trap heat as like that of green house gases.

Karolina [17]

Answer: The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. Here, the oxidation state of the substance decreases.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

Oxidizing agents are the agents that helps in the oxidation of other substance and itself gets reduced. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. Here, oxidation state of the substance increases.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reducing agents are the agents that helps in the reduction of the other substance and itself gets oxidized. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation state is the number which is given to an atom when it looses or gains electron. It is written as a superscript. In a compound, the total charge is equal to the sum of the charges of all atoms in that compound. For Example: In $MnO_4^-$ , manganese has +7 oxidation number and oxygen has -2.

So, the charge on the compound = $[=7+(4\times (-2))]=-1$

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

Which formula represents a saturated hydrocarbon

GenaCL600 [577]

Saturated hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only single bonds between the carbon atoms. They are known to be the simplest organic compounds. They are termed as such because they are saturated with water. Examples are the alkanes (ethane, methane, propane, butane, etc.).
