Answer:

1. Greenhouse gas.

2. Carbon sequestration.

3. Greenhouse effect.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases can be defined as gases that trap heat within the Earth's atmosphere. Thus, an increase in global temperature is largely caused due to an increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere.

Some examples of greenhouse gases present in the atmosphere are methane, water vapor, carbon dioxide etc.

Matching the descriptions with their term respectively, we have;

1. Greenhouse gas: carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, nitrogen oxides, and some CFCs that absorb heat and keep it in the earth's atmosphere

2. Carbon sequestration: it's a technology used to capture the carbon released from smokestacks and store it in some part of the environment to keep it out of the atmosphere. Thus, it's a process that is typically used for capturing and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide in soil, ocean, plants and geologic formation, so as to reduce global warming or climate change.

3. Greenhouse effect: it's a term used to describe the negative role that greenhouse gases such as methane, water vapor, carbon dioxide etc., play in keeping the earth warm.

A gas occupies 18.5L at stp. what volume will it occupy at 735 torr and 57°c?
olga nikolaevna [1]

 The volume that  will  be occupied at 735  torr and 57 c  is 23.12 L


 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

  • <u><em> </em></u> At STP   temperature=273 k  and  pressure=760 torr
  • <u><em> </em></u>by use of combined  gas formula

that is P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

where; P1 =760 torr

           T1= 273  K

           V1= 18.5 L

          P2= 735 torr

         T2=  57+273= 330 K

          V2=?

  • by making   V2 the formula of subject

     V2= T2P1V1/P2T1

       V2=  [(18.5L  x 330 k  x 760 torr)/(735 torr x 273 k)]= 23.12  L
