<span>Depletion of the ozone layer. Choloroflourocarbon (CFCS) are dangerous because of their destructive reaction with Ozone particles, which provide the Earth with a protective layer or shield against UV radiation. Depletion of the ozone layer begins when when CFC gets into the stratosphere. Sunlight breaks up cfcs releasing Chlorine Atom. Chlorine atoms in turn react with Ozone, starting a chemical cycle that destroys the ozone layer in that area. Once the ozone layer is depleted, there's nothing holding back the harmful UVB wavelengths of ultraviolet light (UV light) from passing through the Earth's atmosphere causing havoc on plants and animals.</span>

Answer:

Solid: State of matter with definite shape.

Gas: State of matter with particles very far apart.

1 or 3: Arrows that show particles getting closer together.

2 or 4: Arrows that show particles gaining energy.

Gas: State of matter that will fill any container.

Liquid: Sate of matter with definite volume but not shape.

Solid: State of mater with least amount of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

There are three states of matter :

Solid: It is the state in which atoms are tightly packed such that either they can make no movement at all or just can cause vibrations. Hence, solids have a definite shape and volume.

Liquids: When the solid molecules are heated, they gain energy and free themselves, converting into the liquid state. The molecules have a definite volume but not a definite shape.

Gas: When liquid molecules are heated together, they gain more energy and start hitting the walls of the container with a much greater space. They move more freely in this state and hence the molecules do not have a definite shape or volume in this state.

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Replicability.

Explanation:

The principle of replicability states that the results obtained by a researcher, in certain investigation work, have to be the same for other researchers who are following the same steps. If the experiment cannot replicate under the same conditions, then it's not valid to the scientific community and therefore cannot be published.
