Describe THREE things you can do to help protect the ozone layer?

Biology

Klio2033 [76]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Avoid the consumption of gases dangerous to the ozone layer, due to their content or manufacturing process. Some of the most dangerous gases are chlorofluorocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbon, methyl bromide, and nitrous oxide.

Minimize the use of cars. The best transport options are urban, bicycle, or walking. If you use a car, try to carpool to decrease the use of cars. This prevents pollution.

Do not use cleaning products that are harmful to the environment. Many cleaning products contain substances that are corrosive. Replace these dangerous substances with non-toxic products such as vinegar or bicarbonate.

Buy local products. Not only do you get fresh products but you avoid consuming food that has traveled long distances. The more food is transported, the more nitrous oxide is produced due to the cars or trucks used to transport it.

Maintain air conditioners, as their malfunctions cause chemicals to escape into the atmosphere.

Explain how the number of electrons in an energy level affects bond formation.
Klio2033 [76]

Hi,

The answer is very simple and of basic nature, let us get into the basics.

We have studied since very long that atoms form chemical bonds with other atoms because they want to get stable. They can get stable through octet or duplet rule that means that atoms needs to have two (in the shell nearest to nucleus) and eight electrons in the outer most shell.

So, if an atom already has enough number of electrons that it is obeying octet or duplet rule, it means that the atom is stable. It will tend not to form a chemical bond with other atom by sharing, losing or gaining electrons. Now, the electrons in outer most shell are called valence electrons and they are distributed in sub-energy levels, s and p respectively. S orbital can accommodate only two electrons, while P can accommodate 6 electrons, d can accommodate 10 electrons while f orbital can accommodate 14 electrons. So, we can say that the bond formation is the most important property of an atom and it is strongly effected by number of electrons in an energy level.

In addition, number of electrons in outer most shell also effect many other properties of an atom like shielding or screening effect, metallic or non-metallic nature that also effects the chemical bonding of atoms. Since, metallic nature of an atom is due to its ability to lose outermost shell's electrons. Therefore, the whole phenomenon of chemical bonding is linked with number of electrons in outer most shell.
