4. describe three ways carbon dioxide was removed from the Earth's atmosphere.

Answer: Forests: Photosynthisis helps clear carbon dioxide naturally, Soils naturally store carbon, but agricultural soils are running a big deficit due to intensive use. Because agricultural land is so expansive, Bio-energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) is another way to use photosynthesis to combat climate change. However, it is far more complicated than planting trees or managing soils — and it doesn’t always work for the climate.

5. Explain why there is now 21% Oxygen in the Earth's atomosphere compaired to little or no Oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere 4.5 billion years ago.

Answer: cientists believe that the Earth was formed about 4.5 billion years ago. Its early atmosphere was probably formed from the gases given out by volcanoes. It is believed that there was intense volcanic activity for the first billion years of the Earth's existence.The early atmosphere was probably mostly carbon dioxide, with little or no oxygen. There were smaller proportions of water vapour, ammonia and methane. As the Earth cooled down, most of the water vapour condensed and formed the oceans.

The water-gas shift reaction CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) is used industrially to produce hydrogen. The reaction enthalpy is ΔH∘=−4

Answer:

To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.

For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.

Explanation:

Let´s consider the following reaction:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.

In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.

Why does silicon have a high melting point

Igoryamba

If the bonds are held together tightly, as an ionic bond or even a covalent bond, there will need to be a strong force to separate those bonds. This would by why their would be a high melting point. Another reason would be re-activity. <span />

How many moles are there in 13g of KMnO4?

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

0.08 moles

Explanation:

Relative atomic mass of KMnO4 = K + Mn + O4 = 39 + 55 + 16 x 4 = 158

=> Moles in 13g of KMnO4 = $\frac{Mass}{Relative-atomic-mass}$ = $\frac{13}{158}$ = 0.082278.. = 0.08 moles
