Answer:
1. 2.04 W/m²
2. 1.63°C
Explanation:
The radiative force that the Earth receives comes from the Sun. When the Sun rays come to the surface, some of them are absorbed and then it is reflected in the space. The greenhouse gases (like CO2) blocks some of these rays, and then the surface stays warm. The excessive amount of these gases makes the surface warmer, which unbalance the climate on Earth.
1. The variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated based on the concentration of the CO2 by the equation:
ΔF = 5.35*ln(C/C0)
Where C is the final concentration, and C0 is the initial concentration.
ΔF = 5.35*ln(410/280)
ΔF = 2.04 W/m²
2. The temperature change in the Earth's surface caused by the variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated by:
ΔT = 0.8*ΔF
ΔT = 0.8*2.04
ΔT = 1.63 K = 1.63°C

Answer:</h3>
Lead-205 (Pb-205)
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;
- Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
- When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
- Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
- The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
- The equation for the decay is;
²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He
- Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.
