How do greenhouse gases in the atmosphere affect Earth’s temperature?

Answer: The greenhouse gases cause Earth's surface to heat up from the sunlight.

Explanation: The greenhouse gases causes the Earth's surface to warm up in the morning and at night, the surface cools down. When it cools down, that gives the heat a chance to get back into the air, but some of the heat is trapped (which is caused by the greenhouse gases). That's why, on average, Earth stays at 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

10 m3 of carbon dioxide is originally at a temperature of 50 °C and pressure of 10 kPa. Determine the new density and volume of

Dimas [21]

Answer : The new density and new volume of carbon dioxide gas is 0.2281 g/L and $7.2m^3$ respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the new or final volume of carbon dioxide gas.

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 10 kPa

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 15 kPa

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = $10m^3$

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $50^oC=273+50=323K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $75^oC=273+75=348K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{10kPa\times 10m^3}{323K}=\frac{15kPa\times V_2}{348K}$

$V_2=7.2m^3$

The new volume of carbon dioxide gas is $7.2m^3$

Now we have to calculate the new density of carbon dioxide gas.

$PV=nRT\\\\PV=\frac{m}{M}RT\\\\P=\frac{m}{V}\frac{RT}{M}\\\\P=\rho \frac{RT}{M}\\\\\rho=\frac{PM}{RT}$

Formula for new density will be:

$\rho_2=\frac{P_2M}{RT_2}$

where,

$P_2$ = new pressure of gas = 15 kPa

$T_2$ = new temperature of gas = $75^oC=273+75=348K$

M = molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mole

R = gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

$\rho$ = new density

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\rho_2=\frac{(15kPa)\times (44g/mole)}{(8.314L.kPa/mol.K)\times (348K)}$

$\rho_2=0.2281g/L$

The new density of carbon dioxide gas is 0.2281 g/L

How many molecules are in 3 moles of NaCl?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Given : No. Of moles = 1.5

To calculate : no. Of molecules =N

We know that moles = N / 6.022 x 10²³

Therefore, 1.5 x 6.022 x 10²³ = N

Hence N = 9.0330x 10²³ molecules

Who uses holmium? I need to know for a science project.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Holmium can absorb neutrons, so it is used in nuclear reactors to keep a chain reaction under control. Its alloys are used in some magnets. Holmium has no known biological role, and is non-toxic. Holmium is found as a minor component of the minerals monazite and bastnaesite.

Explanation:

this is basically used in industries

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17 g of carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen. what is the correct representation of the

yarga [219]

CH3 is the empirical formula for the compound.

A sample of a compound is determined to have 1.17g of Carbon and 0.287 g of hydrogen.

The number of atom or moles in the compound is

1.17 g C X 1 mol of C / 12.011 g C = 0.097411 mol of C.

0.287 g H x 1 mol of H / 1 g H = 0.28474 mol H.

This compound contains 0.097411 mol of carbon and 0.28474 mol of Hydrogen.

So we can represent the compound with the formula C0.974H0.284.

Subscripts in formulas can be made into whole numbers by multiplying the smaller subscript by the larger subscript.

we can divide 0.284 by 0.0974.

0.284 / 0.0974 = 3.

So here, Carbon is one and hydrogen is 3.

We can write the above formula as a CH3.

Hence the empirical formula for the sample compound is CH3.
