Explain what is meant by Pleistocene ice age
makkiz [27]

By Pleistocene ice age is meant the glacial periods that appeared in the Pleistocene. The Pleistocene is the first epoch of the Quaternary. It is an epoch when there was a so called ''ice age'' on the Earth, or rather a glacial period. During this ice age the planet had much lower temperatures on a global scale. The climate was also much drier. Lot of ocean water was frozen in the ice sheets that were stretching deep into the North American and Eurasian continents, which resulted in much lower sea levels that today as well. The places further north than 40 degrees of latitude were almost exclusively covered with ice, so life was almost impossible apart from some coastline places.

Neon atoms are known to produce a mass spectrum that consists of three peaks at m/z values of 20, 21 and 22, with the relative a
wel

Answer:

Explanation:

m / z = 20 , 21 , 22

m / 1 = 20 , 21 , 22

m = 20 , 21 , 22 .

ratio of isotopes = 112 : 0.21 : 11.1

Average atomic mass = (112 x 20 + .21 x 21 + 11.1 x 22) / (112 + .21 + 11.1 )

=  (2240 + 4.41 + 244.2) / 123.31

= 2488.61 / 123.31

= 20.18

Zinc is a pure substance. How could you make a mixture from a 1.0-g zinc disc?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

D)Coat the disc with another pure substance, such as copper.

Explanation:

To make a mixture of the zinc, simply coat it with another pure substance such as copper. This will result in a mixture.

What then is a mixture?

  • They are impure substances with indefinite composition.
  • They retain their physical properties
  • their constituents reacts differently to changed conditions
  • They can easily be separated into constituents by physical methods.

We can see that coating the copper on the zinc does not alter the physical properties of the metal.

Most times, the copper will wear off and leave behind the zinc.

The metal coated can easily be removed and this signifies just a physical mix.

connection between fossil fuels, CO2, greenhouse effect and climate change? must include all 4 in answer please
natima [27]

The fossil fuels, CO2, greenhouse effect, and climate change are all things that are connected with each other and contribute for each successive one to occur. The fossil fuels are heavily used by the humans. Through their burning, the fossil fuels release lot of CO2 into the atmosphere. The CO2 is the most common greenhouse gas, thus it is a gas that manages to trap the heat into the atmosphere. So as the CO2 from the burning of the fossil fuels increases in the atmosphere, the greenhouse effect also increases. The greenhouse effect is the one that manages to keep the Earth warm, which is good, but it can also pass the limit and make the whole planet much warmer, resulting in rise of the sea levels because of the melting of the ice caps and glaciers. That will cause significant climate changes all over the globe because the sea currents will change, the atmosphere will keep more heat, and the water surface will increase.
