A layer of greenhouse gases – primarily water vapor, and including much smaller amounts of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide – acts as a thermal blanket for the Earth, absorbing heat and warming the surface to a life-supporting average of 59 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius).
Answer:
B) 12
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial volume = 3L
Initial pressure = 4atm
Final pressure = 6atm
Unknown:
Final volume = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P and V are pressure and temperature values
1 and 2 are initial and final states.
PV product = 3 x 4 = 12
When there is heat released
Answer:
An ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of some electrons from one atom to another. The atom losing one or more electrons becomes a cation or a positively charged ion. The atom gaining one or more electrons becomes an anion which is a negatively charged ion.
