Hello!

The part of the carbon cycle where humans had the greatest impact is the return of CO₂ to the atmosphere by burning of ancient organic matter.

The ancient organic matter is also called Fossil Fuels. Some Fossil Fuels are Petroleum and Coal. Fossil Fuels are used to power our society and are burned to provide energy for power plants and vehicles, and by burning them, Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is produced, increasing the natural concentration of this compound in the atmosphere.

Have a nice day!

According to Newton's third law, forces come in pairs. There is_____and an equal and opposite_____.
hichkok12 [17]

According to Newton's third law, forces come in pairs. There is action-reaction force and an equal (in size - action force) and opposite in direction (reaction force).

<u>Explanation:</u>

On the off chance, when item A applies a force on item B, at that point item B must apply a force of equivalent size and inverse bearing back on object A. This Newton's third law speaks to a specific balance in nature: forces consistently happen two by two.

And, one body can't apply a force on another without encountering a force itself. Now and again, allude to this law freely as activity response, where the force applied is the activity and the force experienced as a result is the response.

5. How much heat (in calories) is absorbed by a reaction when
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

1.2 × 10⁴ cal

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of water (m): 300 g
  • Initial temperature: 80 °C
  • Final temperature: 40°C

We can calculate the heat released by the water (Q_w) when it cools using the following expression.

Q_w = c \times m \times (T_f - T_i)

where

c is the specific heat capacity of water (1 cal/g.°C)

Q_w = \frac{1cal}{g.\°C}  \times 300g \times (40\°C - 80\°C) = -1.2 \times 10^{4} cal

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the water (Q_w) and the heat absorbed by the reaction (Q_r) is zero.

Q_w + Q_r = 0\\Q_r = -Q_w = 1.2 \times 10^{4} cal
