Answer:

I notice your question is incomplete, but I guess it corresponds to the one I attached as an image. I will answer to that question and I hope it helps:

The three water phases: solid (ice) , Liquid (water), Gas (vapor)

1) The state of matter in which water is densest - Liquid

2) The state of matter in which molecules are most energetic - Gas

3) The state of matter of steam rising from a hot cup of coffee - Gas

4) The state of matter in which water molecules vibrate about fixed location - solid

5) The state of matter of frost on grass - solid

Explanation:

1) The state of matter in which water is densest - Liquid

When water freezes, its molecules are structured as a very organized web of water molecules bonded by hydrogen bonds. This lattice structure makes Ice less dense than liquid water. In fact, in liquid water, hydrogen bonds unify water molecules, but not in a organized and clear structure, so molecules are nearer than in solid state, they are tightly packed.

2) The state of matter in which molecules are most energetic - Gas

Gas is the state in which molecules are most energetic because they move freely. Ice has water molecules in a specific structure (lattice) avoiding them to move freely and all over a container, so no movements means no action and a low energy. Water moleule in liquid state has some movement but not as free as gas state. Gas has a variable volume and shape, its particles are far from each other and they are not in a fixed place, so there is a lot of movement, so a lot of energy.

3) The state of matter of steam rising from a hot cup of coffee - Gas

The state of matter of water rising from a hot cup of coffee is vapor and is invisible; as it began to condence, we can see droplets that form a mist.

4) The state of matter in which water molecules vibrate about fixed location - solid

As I explained before, ice is the state in which water molecules are in a lattice-like fixed location. These molecules still vibrate but in a fixed point.

5) The state of matter of frost on grass - solid

Frost on grass is the result of water depositions that lose thermal energy and they become a thin layer of solid water.

Global climate change is most likely the result of _____. Environmental Issues: Select the best answer from the choices provided

klasskru [66]

$\Large{\underline{\boxed{\mathfrak \pink{Question:-}}}}$

Global climate change is most likely the result of _______. Environmental issues: Select the best answer from the choices provided.

A. Increased carbon dioxide in the air.

B. Diminishing natural resources.

C. Decreased Oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

D. Biodiversity.

$\Large{\underline{\boxed{\mathfrak \pink{Answer:-}}}}$

$\normalsize\star\textsf{Correct \: Option:-}$

$\qquad\bullet$ Option"A" is correct: Increase in Carbon dioxide in Air.

$\normalsize\star\textsf{Related \: Questions:-}$

a.) How global climate change is related to the increase of carbon dioxide in Air ?

$\qquad\bullet$ The Increase of Carbon dioxide in Air results in increase of Global warming(Green house effect).

$\qquad\bullet$ Green house effect : A building mostly made of glass for growing or shelter in the delicate plant is called greenhouse. the glass walls of greenhouse allows sun rays to pass through the interior.However, reflected back infrared rays are not allowed to escape through the glass walls. Carbon dioxide gas and water vapours present inside the glass house further trap the heat and make the greenhouse warmer than the outside air.

$\qquad\bullet$ The atmosphere cover around the earth ,acts similar to the glass walls of greenhouse. the air cover solar radiation to pass through it to the Earth’s surface, and prevent the long wave infrared radiation to escape into the space.Gases such as Carbondioxide,Nitrogen oxide,CFCs,ozone are the Greenhouse gases and among all of them "Carbon dioxide" is the most important gas.These greenhouse gases trap the heat reflected by the earth.

$\qquad\bullet$ The heating up of the atmosphere leads to an increase in Earth's temperature.This phenomenon is called " Global warming or Green house effect.

b.) What are the effects of Global warming?

$\qquad\bullet$ Increase in earth temperature will cause a change in weather and precipitation patterns on the earth.

$\qquad\bullet$ As we know the fact that " An increase of less as 1°C in Earth's temperature can lead to melting of polar ice caps and consequent rise in sea level".The sudden rise of sea level can submerge a number of major cities of the world which are located along the coasts.

$\qquad\bullet$ Global warming poses a threat of recurrence of "Dust Bowl condition of 1930's".Dust Bowl is an area where vegetation has been lost and soil reduced to dust making it suspectable to erosion.

$\qquad\bullet$ One of major danger of global warming is " Methane burp"which is caused by the melting of Methane hydrates in permafrost of polar ice caps & on the sea floor.
