Answer:
Explanation:
Pair 2.50g of O₂ and 2.50g of N₂
The atoms sample with the largest number of moles since the masses are the same would be the one with lowest molar mass according the the equation below:
Number of moles =
Atomic mass of O = 16g and N = 14g
Molar mass of O₂ = 16 x 2 = 32gmol⁻¹
Molar mass of N₂ = 14 x 2 = 28gmol⁻¹
Number of moles of O₂ = = 0.078mole
Number of moles of N₂ = = 0.089mole
We see that N₂ has the largest number of moles
Carbon dioxide is a gas having chemical formula , a gas which exhaled by humans and inhaled by plants. It is also emitted from the sources such as cement production and combustion of fossil fuels. It is also known as greenhouse gas associated with acidification of ocean.
Carbon dioxide with other gases acts like a blanket of Earth which absorbs infrared radiations emitted from the sun and thus, preventing the escaping of these rays into the outer space which results in the gradual heating of Earth's surface and atmosphere i.e. increase in temperature of Earth. This process is known as Global Warming.
Hence, carbon dioxide is responsible for the increase in warming of the atmosphere i.e. option (D).
