Answer: Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrous Oxide and Fuorinated Gases

Explanation:Carbon dioxide (CO2): Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through burning fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and oil), solid waste, trees and other biological materials, and also as a result of certain chemical reactions (e.g., manufacture of cement). Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere (or "sequestered") when it is absorbed by plants as part of the biological carbon cycle.

Methane (CH4): Methane is emitted during the production and transport of coal, natural gas, and oil. Methane emissions also result from livestock and other agricultural practices and by the decay of organic waste in municipal solid waste landfills.

Nitrous oxide (N2O): Nitrous oxide is emitted during agricultural and industrial activities, combustion of fossil fuels and solid waste, as well as during treatment of wastewater.

Fluorinated gases: Hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, and nitrogen trifluoride are synthetic, powerful greenhouse gases that are emitted from a variety of industrial processes. Fluorinated gases are sometimes used as substitutes for stratospheric ozone-depleting substances (e.g., chlorofluorocarbons, hydrochlorofluorocarbons, and halons). These gases are typically emitted in smaller quantities, but because they are potent greenhouse gases, they are sometimes referred to as High Global Warming Potential gases ("High GWP gases").

The bond angles in SCl2 are expected to be Multiple Choice a little more than 109.5°. 109.5°. 120°. a little less than 109.5°. 1
nalin [4]

Answer:

a little less than 109.5°

Explanation:

SCl2 has four regions of electron density around the central atom of the molecule. This implies that it has a tetrahedral electron domain geometry with an expected bond angle of 109.5° according to valence shell electron pair repulsion theory.

However, there are two lone pair of electrons on the central atom of the molecule which decreases the bond angle a little less than 109.5° owing to repulsion between electron pairs.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Answer 9 - 100 joules energy was at the producer level

Answer 10 - Remaining energy is used in metabolism

Explanation:

Answer 9

The energy at each trophic level is only 10% of the energy at its previous trophic level.

The energy at producer level is X

10 % of X = 10 Joules

\frac{10}{100} * X = 10\\X = 100Joules

Answer 10

Because the remaining 90% energy is utilized by the producer for its metabolism

Linda has two glasses of apple juice. Glass A has 40 grams of juice at 25 °C. Glass B has 40 grams of juice at 40 °C. Which of t
IgorLugansk [536]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

In both glasses have juices of same mass. But the temperature is different due to which the kinetic energy of molecules in both glasses is different.

As kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

To make the kinetic energy of the molecules equal she should:

  • Heat one glass of 25°C to 40°C.

               or

  • Cool the juice of 40°C to 25°C
