Virty [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ionosphere.

Explanation:

The atmospheric layer that is represented by F is known as IONOSPHERE.

The characteristics of Ionosphere

1. It is considered to be located in the upper layer of the earth's atmosphere due to the location of region F.

2. It is ionized by solar radiation that contains an electrical charge.

3. It functions as a reflector. This can be observed in radio waves broadcasting.

What is the formula of a compound in which element y form ccp lattice and atom x occupy 1/3rd of tetrahedral voids
Kisachek [45]
Y : CCP : 4 atoms
X : tetrahedral voids would be 1/3 × 8 = 8/3

so formula would be Y12X8 or Y3X2 !!

Define natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and liquefied natural gas (LNG). What three countries have most of the world’
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The answer is treated below.

Explanation:

<u>Natural gas</u>: Natural gas is not used in its pure form; it is processed and converted into cleaner fuel for consumption. It is a fossil fuel composed almost entirely of methane, but contain small amounts of other gases, including ethane, propane, pentane and butane. It is a combustible,  gaseous mixture of simple hydrocarbon compounds, usually found in deep  underground reservoirs formed by porous rock. Natural gas is mainly used as fuel for generating  heat  and electricity.

<u>Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)</u>: Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a byproduct of natural gas and oil extraction and crude oil refining . At room temperature,  liquefied petroleum gas is a colourless and odourless gas which consists generally of butane (C4H10) or propane (C3H8) or a mixture of both.

<u>Liquefied natural gas (LNG)</u>: Is natural gas that has been liquefied for ease of transport or storage. It is refrigerated to a very low temperature (-162 Celsius). At this temperature it becomes an odourless, non-toxic liquid that can be safely transported over long distances.

<u><em> Three countries that have most of the world’s natural gas reserves</em></u>

  1. Russia
  2. Iran
  3. Qatar

<em>Major advantages of using conventional natural gas as an energy resource:</em>

  • It is less expensive when compared to other fossil fuels.
  • It is safer and easier to store when compared to other fossil fuels

<em>Major disadvantages of using conventional natural gas as an energy resource:</em>

  • It costs more to recover the remaining natural gas because of flow, access, etc.
  • It is not a renewable source.
  • it is a combustible material, It must be handled with care.
  • It does not contribute to greenhouse gases.

Three sources of unconventional natural gas :

  1. <em>Tight Gas</em>
  2. <em>Shale Gas</em>
  3. <em>Coalbed Methane</em>

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Tight Gas</u>

  • When Hydrofluoric acid is used to release tight gas in reserves it potentially an issue simply because the substance is so dangerous. A spill or a leak could harm workers and pollute groundwater for uses.

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Shale Gas</u>

  • Risk of ground and surface water contamination.
  • Have impacts on air quality.

<u>Major problems related to the use of </u><u>Coalbed Methane</u>

  • The development of coalbed methane will result to soil disturbance from construction of wells, roads, and the associated pipeline and electric power rights-of-ways.
  • It has impact on wildlife.

Which of the following is most likely to dissolve in NH3? A) CO2 B) CH4 C) H2S D) BH3
dem82 [27]

Answer:

C) H2S

Explanation:

In chemistry, the dissolution of one substance in another is dependent on the magnitude of intermolecular interaction between the two substances.  Hence, if two substances do not interact in one way or the other, then one can not dissolve the other.

Let us consider the fact that NH3 is a polar molecule and it is a general principle that like dissolves like. Hence, only H2S which is also a polar molecule can effectively interact with  NH3 due to dipole-dipole interaction between the two molecules.

Also, ammonia reacts with hydrogen sulphide as follows;

2NH3 + H2S → (NH4)2S

Hence H2S is more likely to dissolve in NH3.

How do scientist use radioactive decay to date fossils and artifacts
zhuklara [117]
Scientists use radioactive decay to date fossils and artifacts through a process called "carbon dating," which measures the amount of carbon still left in a dead object. The less carbon that exists, the longer that animal or plant as been dead.
