Answer:

Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases that surround Earth. It is kept in place by the pull of Earth's gravity. If Earth was a much smaller planet, like Mercury or Pluto, its gravity would be to weak to hold a large atmosphere.

Answer:

Earth's gravity

Explanation:

Atmosphere is formed by the set of different layers of gases together, thus forming atmosphere. The Earth's atmosphere protects us by absorbing the UV rays coming from the Sun. These gases are held together forming an envelop because of the gravity of the Earth. It mainly comprises of 78% of Nitrogen, 20.9% of the oxygen, 0.9% of argon, approximately 0.035% of Carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases present in negligible amount.

Using the balanced equation below, how many moles of water can be produced when 4 grams of Hydrogen react? 2H2(g)+O2(g) —> 2H
gavmur [86]

Answer:

4 × 10 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 H₂O(I)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4 g of H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2.02 g/mol.

4 g × 1 mol/2.02 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O produced from 2 moles of H₂

The molar ratio of H₂ to H₂O is 2:2. The moles of H₂O produced are 2/2 × 2 mol = 2 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2 moles of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

2 mol × 18.02 g/mol = 4 × 10 g

n a semiconductor, the bonding molecular orbitals that contain electrons are referred to as the ________, while the antibonding
Kruka [31]

Answer:

In a semiconductor, the bonding molecular orbitals that contain electrons are referred to as the valence band, while the antibonding orbitals that are completely empty are referred to as the conduction band.

The conduction band occupies a higher energy level than the valence band. The band gap is what separates the two orbitals.
