Describe what the greenhouse effect is and how it is caused on a molecular level.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Solar energy absorbed at Earth’s surface is radiated back into the atmosphere as heat. As the heat makes its way through the atmosphere and back out to space, greenhouse gases absorb much of it. Why do greenhouse gases absorb heat? Greenhouse gases are more complex than other gas molecules in the atmosphere, with a structure that can absorb heat. They radiate the heat back to the Earth's surface, to another greenhouse gas molecule, or out to space.

There are several different types of greenhouse gases. The major ones are carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gas molecules all are made of three or more atoms. The atoms are held together loosely enough that they vibrate when they absorb heat. Eventually, the vibrating molecules release the radiation, which will likely be absorbed by another greenhouse gas molecule. This process keeps heat near the Earth’s surface. Most of the gas in the atmosphere is nitrogen and oxygen, which cannot absorb heat and contribute to the greenhouse effect.

C(S)+O2(g)-->CO2(g)
soldi70 [24.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 1.18 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical equation:

C(S)+O2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

We know that at STP conditions:

22.4L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.

So, 2.21L of carbon dioxide is occupied by = \frac{1}{22.4L}\times 2.21L=0.0986mol of carbon dioxide gas.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas is produced by 1 mole of carbon

So, 0.0986 moles of carbon dioxide is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0986=0.0986mol of carbon.

Now, to calculate the mass of carbon, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of carbon = 0.0986 mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0986mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=1.18g

Hence, the correct answer is 1.18 g.

A buret was improperly read to 1 decimal place giving a reading of 27.2 mL. If the actual volume is 27.26 mL, what is the percen
Nezavi [6.7K]
Percent error can be calculated by the difference of the theoretical value and the measured value divided by the theoretical value multiplied by 100 percent. 

% error = 27.26 - 27.2 / 27.26 x100
% error = 0.22%

A value close to zero would mean that the measured value is more or less near the actual value.

Students conduct an experiment:
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The balloon becomes inflated

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction between baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and vinegar(ethanoic acid) is shown below;

NaHCO3 + HC2CH3O2 ------> NaC2H3O2 + H2O + CO2

The gas (CO2) evolved in the process leads to the inflation of the balloon dropped on the bottle in which the reaction is taking pace.

This observation provides evidence that a gas was really evolved in the reaction.

How can you tell S-wave arrival from the end of the P-wave?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

<h2>The P wave will be the first wiggle that is bigger than the rest of the little ones (the microseisms). Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph records. The next set of seismic waves on your seismogram will be the S waves</h2>
