Answer:

Argon and Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Although both nitrogen and oxygen are essential to human life on the planet, they have little effect on weather and other atmospheric processes. The variable components, which make up far less than 1 percent of the atmosphere, have a much greater influence on both short-term weather and long-term climate. For example, variations in water vapor in the atmosphere are familiar to us as relative humidity. Water vapor, CO2, CH4, N2O, and SO2 all have an important property: They absorb heat emitted by Earth and thus warm the atmosphere, creating what we call the "greenhouse effect."

In addition to gases, the atmosphere also contains particulate matter such as dust, volcanic ash, rain, and snow. These are, of course, highly variable and are generally less persistent than gas concentrations, but they can sometimes remain in the atmosphere for relatively long periods of time.

12 g of powdered magnesium oxide reacts with nitric acid to

galben [10]

Answer:

80.8 g

Explanation:

First, let's write a balanced equation of this reaction

MgO + 2HNO₃ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + H₂O

Now let's convert grams to moles

We gotta find the weight of MgO

24 + 16 = 40 g/mol

12/40 = 0.3 moles of MgO

We can use this to find out how much Magnesium Nitrate will be formed

0.3 x 1 MgO / 1 Mg(NO₃)₂ = 0.3 moles of Magnesium Nitrate formed

Convert moles to grams

Find the weight of Mg(NO₃)₂ but don't forget that 2 subscript acts as a multiplier of whatever is inside that parenthesis.

24 + 14 x 2 + 16 x 3 x 2 = 148 g/mol

148 x 0.3 = 80.8 g

If you have a 1500 g aluminum pot, how much heat energy is needed to raise its temperature by 100°C?

Nataly [62]

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100°C is 135 kJ.

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100 °C is 57.75 kJ.

Explanation:

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of any body can be obtained from the specific heat formula. As this formula states that the heat energy required to raise the temperature of the body is directly proportional to the product of mass of the body, specific heat capacity of the material and temperature change experienced by the material.

So in this problem, the mass of the aluminium is given as m = 1500 g, the specific heat of the aluminium is 0.900 J/g °C. Then as it is stated that the temperature is raised by 100 °C, so the pots are heat to increase by 100 °C from its initial temperature. This means the difference in temperature will be 100°C (ΔT = 100°C).

Then, the heat energy required to raise the temperature will be

$q = m*c*del T = 1500 * 0.900 * 100 = 135000 = 135 kJ$

Thus, the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100 °C is 135 kJ.

Similarly, the mass of copper pot is given as 1500 g, the specific heat capacity of copper is 0.385 and the difference in temperature is 100 °C.

Then, the heat energy required to raise its temperature will be

$q = m*c*del T = 1500 * 0.385 * 100 = 57750 = 57.75 kJ$

And the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100°C is 57.75 kJ.

So, the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of aluminium pot by 100°C is 135 kJ. And the heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1500 g of copper pot by 100 °C is 57.75 kJ.

The reaction for photosynthesis producing glucose sugar and oxygen gas is:

Anvisha [2.4K]

1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.

To find the mass of glucose produced, first you must know the balanced reaction. For this, the Law of Conservation of Matter is followed.

The law of conservation of matter states that since no atom can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms that are present in the reagents has to be equal to the number of atoms present in the products.

So, in this case, the balanced reaction is:

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the amounts of moles of each reactant and product participate in the reaction:

CO₂: 6 moles
H₂O: 6 moles
C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole
O₂: 6 moles

So, you know that 2.20 g of CO₂ react, whose molar weight is 44.01 g/mole. By definition of molar mass, 1 mole of CO₂ has 44.01 g. So, the number of moles that 2.20 grams of the compound represent is calculated as:

$moles of CO_{2} =2.20 grams*\frac{1 mole}{44.01 grams}$

moles of CO₂= 0.05 moles

Now you must follow the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry of the reaction 6 moles of CO₂ produce 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆, 0.05 moles of CO₂ produce how many moles of C₆H₁₂O₆?

$moles of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} =\frac{0.05moles of CO_{2} *1 mole of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}}{6moles of CO_{2}}$

moles of C₆H₁₂O₆= 8.33*10⁻³

Being the molar mass of glucose 180.18 g/mole, the mass that 8.33*10⁻³ moles of the compound represent is calculated as:

$mass of glucose =8.33*10^{-3} moles*\frac{180.18 grams}{1 mole}$

mass of glucose= 1.5 grams

Then, 1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.
