Acid rain is the direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels. true or false

Chemistry

Airida [17]3 years ago

<span>True. Acid rain is formed when compounds released during the burning of fossil fuels, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide, dissolve in water droplets in clouds. These then fall as rain as part of the water cycle. While some rain is naturally acidic, human activities, like burning fossil fuels, have made it worse.</span>

Answer : Option B) False.

Explanation : Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction between the rain water droplets and the the air pollutants sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide. These harmful air pollutants are emitted by the incomplete combustion of the fossil fuels. When it gets combined with the water in the rain it comes down in the form of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which is very harmful.

Therefore, there is an indirect relation between the burning of the fossil fuels and the acid rain. So, the answer is FALSE.

If the radius of copper is 0.128 nm, what is the pd of the (100) plane for copper in m-2?
kolbaska11 [484]

Copper has a FCC i.e. face centered cubic crystal structure. The 100 plane is essentially a planar section of the cubic cell where 4 Cu atoms occupy the 4 corners of the plane along with 1 Cu atom at the center of that plane. Each of the Cu atoms in the corners is shared by 4 adjacent unit cells. Thus, there are 2 Cu atoms present in the 100 plane (4*1/4 + 1 = 2).

Now, the planar density PD along the 100 plane is given as:

PD(100) = # atoms in the 100 plane/Area of 100 plane

            = \frac{2}{8R^{2} }

Here R = radius = 0.128 nm = 0.128*10^{-9} m

PD = \frac{2}{8*(0.128*10^{-9}) ^{2} } = 1.526*10^{19} m^{-2}

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Quaternary structure of proteins is composed of two or more polypeptide chains. Insulin has two; one alpha  and one beta chain. The two chains are joined together by disulfide bonds at two points (at cysteines). Other examples of quaternary proteins structures are DNA polymerase and hemoglobin.
