how can scientists accurately compare atmospheric composition today with atmospheric composition thousands of years ago?

Biology

Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

They accurately compare the current atmosphere with the previous one, by assessing the amount of atmospheric gases present today, with the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ice cores that they believe are millennial, that is, they have existed for thousands of years ago.

Explanation:

As we know, it is difficult to compare current characteristics of the planet earth with characteristics that the planet had in the past, thousands of years ago. This is because the ancient characteristics on earth are not fully available to be analyzed, since most of them have been modified over time.

To do this, scientists need to find factors that may have existed thousands of years ago and assess whether these factors have any account of the characteristics of the earth. In the case of atmospheric characteristics, it is common for scientists to compare the current atmosphere with the atmosphere of thousands of years ago, with the assessment of the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ancient ice cores, with the amount of atmospheric gases present in the atmosphere today.

A solution that contains more solute than it would normally hold at that temperature is said to be
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: supersaturated

Explanation: A supersaturated solution is a solution in which the dissolved solute is more than the solvent can hold at that particular temperature.

A solution is a substance which sontains a dissolved solute. A solution can be saturated, unsaturated or supersaturated.

A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of dissolved solute a solvent can hold at that temperature.

An unsaturated solution contains less amount of solute than the solvent can hold at that temperature, this means that more solute can still dissolve in the solution.

A supersaturated solution contains more solute that can be dissolved in the solvent at that temperature.

Paper burns by combining with oxygen. why doesnt paper burn every time it contacts oxygen
kozerog [31]
When a fire is lit, it releases CO2 which will allow the combustion reaction to occur. When a fire is lit, energy is being emitted causing the paper to burn in contact with oxygen. The paper doesn't light up when in usual contact with oxygen because there's not energy fueling the reaction to occur.

What type of energy comes from the motion of tiny particles?
siniylev [52]

The type of energy that comes from the movement of small particles is thermal energy, as the movement of particles produces thermal energy as a result.

<h3>What is it called or particle motion?</h3>

Concept Brownian is the random motion of particles in a fluid (liquid) as a consequence of all changes such as the gas or movement of those present in the fluid.

With this information, we can conclude that On the motion of small suspended particles within liquids at rest, as required by the kinetic molecular theory of heat
