Answer:
1. 2.04 W/m²
2. 1.63°C
Explanation:
The radiative force that the Earth receives comes from the Sun. When the Sun rays come to the surface, some of them are absorbed and then it is reflected in the space. The greenhouse gases (like CO2) blocks some of these rays, and then the surface stays warm. The excessive amount of these gases makes the surface warmer, which unbalance the climate on Earth.
1. The variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated based on the concentration of the CO2 by the equation:
ΔF = 5.35*ln(C/C0)
Where C is the final concentration, and C0 is the initial concentration.
ΔF = 5.35*ln(410/280)
ΔF = 2.04 W/m²
2. The temperature change in the Earth's surface caused by the variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated by:
ΔT = 0.8*ΔF
ΔT = 0.8*2.04
ΔT = 1.63 K = 1.63°C
Answer:
monomers
Explanation:
Thousands of molecules are called monomers
Answer:
One gallon of octane produces approximately 7000 L of carbon dioxide.
Note:
I believe that the mass of octane should have been given as 2661 g. However, I understand that your instructor probably gave you this problem, so I will use 4000 g for the approximate mass of one gallon of octane. You can rework the problem on your own, substituting the correct masses of octane if you wish.
Step1. You must first determine the number of moles that are in 4000 g of octane, using the molar mass of octane. Step 2. Then you must determine the number of moles of carbon dioxide that can be produced by that number of moles of octane, based on the mole ratio between octane and carbon dioxide in the balanced equation. Step 3. Then use the ideal gas law to determine the volume in liters of carbon dioxide that can be formed.
Answer:
Evaporation and condensation are two processes through which matter changes from one state to another.
Explanation:
Answer:
20ppm
Explanation:
parts per million are defined as the mass of solute in mg (In this case, mass of DDT) per kg of sample.
To solve this question we must find the mass of DDT in mg and the mass of sample in kg:
<em>Mass DDT:</em>
0.10g * (1000mg / 1g) = 100mg
<em>Mass sample:</em>
5000g * (1kg / 1000g) = 5kg
Parts per Million:
100mg / 5kg =
<h3>20ppm</h3>
