Which is one way that analyzing ice benefits scientists who study ancient climates? Scientists can analyze frozen volcanic dust

to help predict eruptions. Scientists can drill deep into the ice to collect ice cores. Scientists can use pollen grains in ice to make inferences about the climate area. Scientists can study tree rings in ice to learn more about past climates.

Answer:

The correct option is;

Scientists can drill deep into the ice to collect ice cores which contain trapped atmospheric gases

Explanation:

The study of past climates also known as paleoclimatology, is accomplished by acquiring information from proxy data sources which are physical environment characteristics that are preserved through time to remake the conditions of past climate

Past physical environmental characteristics, from which information about ancient climate can be gained are stored in nature's climate variability records including, ice cores, rings in tree stems, fossil pollen, sediments found in the waters of the ocean

The proxy sources provide a means of understanding the conditions of ancient climate before advent of climate measurement.

Therefore, one way that analyzing ice benefits scientists who study ancient climates is that scientists can drill deep into the ice to collect ice cores which contain trapped atmospheric gases from past climates.

How to answer the question? ⬇️
(Btw this is an example on how to solve it so just letting you know)

To answer this question, you must understand how to convert grams of a molecule into the number of molecules. To do this, you have to utilize the concepts of moles and molar mass.
A mole is just a unit of measurement. Avogadro's number is equal to
6.022
⋅
10
23
molecules/mole. This number is the number of molecules of a specific compound in which when you multiply the compound by it, it converts atomic mass into grams.
For example, one mole of hydrogen gas (
H
2
) or
6.022
⋅
10
23
molecules of
H
2
weighs 2.016 grams because one molecule of
H
2
has an atomic weight of 2.016.
So the overall solution for this problem is to use molar mass of
C
H
4
(methane) to convert grams of methane into moles of methane. Then, use Avogadro's number to convert moles of methane into molecules of methane.
One mole of methane equals 16.04 grams because a molecule of methane has an atomic weight of 16.04. The conversion factor will be 16.04 grams/mole.

When you multiple and divide everything out, you get

Notice this is a modified T-chart so the grams

cancels out when you do the first conversion, and the moles
C

cancels out when you do the second conversion. This leaves you with the unit molecules of

which corresponds to what the question asks.

This is something else and is not connected with the one above this comment.

The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles CH4, or 16.04246 grams.

Or

Therefore 3.4 grams of ammonia is equal to 0.1996359579590159 moles of ammonia. Multiplying this by 6.022 * 1023 we get 120220773882919374980000 molecules (or 1.2022 * 1023 molecules). ...

Help Plzzz. (will vote brainliest)
kupik [55]
The difference would be that Mercury has a denser, warmer atmosphere and Earth has a not that dense and gassy atmosphere. The Earth's atmosphere also has a lot of layers while Mercury's doesn't. Those would be the reasons for them both being different. Hope this helped!

A 5.5 g sample of a substance contains only carbon and oxygen. Carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance. The rest is mad
Umnica [9.8K]

We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent the scenario is,

<span>                                       x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>

<span>                                       <em> </em><span><em>x = 3.575 g</em></span></span>
