Answer:

nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides

Explanation:

Factors responsible for antropogenic pollution are:

  • burning of fossil fuels
  • deforestation
  • mining
  • sewage
  • industrial effluent
  • pesticides, fertilizers, etc.  

The primary air pollutants released from burning of fossil fuels are oxides of nitrogen, sulfur oxides and carbon monoxide.

Out of which the main pollutants that are responsible for acidic precipitation are oxides of nitrogen and sulfur oxides.

Sulfur oxides and Oxides of nitrogen reacts with moisture present in the air to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid respectively.

These acids get mixed with rain and cause acidic precipitation.

Therefore, the correct option is oxides of nitrogen and sulfur oxides.

Explain how CO2 is absorbed into the ocean of H2O
Dmitrij [34]
The ocean absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere wherever air meets water. Wind causes waves, giving more opportunity for the water to absorb the carbon dioxide.

What is the atomic mass/mass number of the atom in the diagram above?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

the atomic number is 5

the atomic mass is 11

Explanation:

The atomic number is the amount of protons inside the nucleus, and this number also equals the amount of electrons. Since it shows you the nucleus and the electrons, all you need to do is count the protons (positive charge inside the nucleus) or count all the electrons (negative charge outside the nucleus, in the rings) and you should have your atomic number.

As for mass, all you need to do is count all the protons and neutrons inside the nucleus and add them up. Protons = 5, Neutrons = 6. (you add them since the equation for atomic mass is Atomic Mass = Protons + neutrons. This works every time)

5+6= 11, so your atomic mass is 11

I hope this helps :)

Why do some objects fall through the air at a different rate then others (this is for science)
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

the amount of air resistance depends upon the speed of the object, more massive objects fall faster than less massive objects because they are acted upon by a larger force of gravity; for this reason, they accelerate to higher speeds until the air resistance force equals the gravity force.

The density of iron is 7.8 g/cm3 and that of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm3. Using a balance, you find that a block of iron has the same
vazorg [7]

Answer:

1.The Aluminum block

2.its surroundings absorb energy from it.

Explanation:

In this question it is important to remember that density of an object is the mass of that object divided by its volume.

The expression applied here is density=mass/volume

Given that the mass is constant,lets say mass= m=1g

and density of aluminum=2.7g/cm³ and that of iron is 7.8 g/cm³ then volume=?

Volume=mass/density

Volume of aluminum= 1/2.7 =0.3704 cm³

Volume of iron = 1/7.8 =0.1282 cm³

Here we see volume of Aluminum block is the largest.

2.As water in an ice cube tray freezes, its surroundings absorb energy from it.When the water freezes, latent heat of freezing is given out to the surrounding.When water is freezing, it stays at a constant temperature of 0°C, the heat energy released ensures that there is no cooling past 0 °C.
