r each question below.
1. What effect would a volcanic eruption have on the sky and sun?
2. How would this affect plants’ ability to carry out photosynthesis?
3. What could be done to increase photosynthesis in a situation like this?
4. What other events might prevent sunlight from reaching Earth? How might this affect all life on Earth?

Answer 1. Since all the volcanic ash blocks out the sun's rays and is composed of many toxic chemicals including heavy amounts of anti-oxygen chemicals it will make the atmosphere around the volcano full of chemicals that make it hard for life to exist.

Answer 2. Photosynthesis is the process of converting water, Co^2, and sunlight into glucose and oxygen. Sunlight will be blocked out making it difficult for the plants to photosynthesize. Nearby waters will be contaminated too because of all the ash. The amount of C0^2 will be too overwhelming for most plants thereby killing many of them.

Answer 3. People can bring plants indoors and see that the plants are treated with care and properly. An alternative is to grow newer plants or gardens locally if possible. This will be ill-advised if you see lava coming straight towards your town.

Answer 4. Other events that can block out the sun are storms. If powerful enough they can block out the sun. Since the sun is our prime source of energy, we would seriously take a major hit population wise. Some plants might live if we use flashlights or other light alternatives. Animal's will die off and people eventually. Ends pretty bad and more complex.

Hund's rule states that electrons must spread out within a given subshell before they can pair
Temka [501]

Answer:

Groups 14, 15, and 16 have 2,3, and 4 electrons in the p sublevel (p sublevel has 3 "spaces" AKA orbitals), because Hunds says one in each orbital before doubling up if you had 2 electrons, group 14, they would both be in the first orbital, with 3 electrons, group 15, two in the first orbital one in the 2nd none in the 3rd. With 4 electrons, group 16, then you would have 2 in the first 2 orbitals and NONE in the 3rd.

Explanation:

If you are in group 13 you only have 1 electron so it can only be in one orbital. with group 17, you have 5 electrons, so 2 in the first 2 in the second and 1 in the 3rd, correct for Hunds rule anyway. Noble gasses, group 18, have 6 elecctrons, so every orbital is full any way you look at it.

Balance of Atoms Quick Check
san4es73 [151]

When iron rusts and forms iron oxide, the iron oxide has more mass than the iron because there are more iron atoms in iron oxide than in pure iron.

The process of rust occurs when pure iron is exposed to air and moisture. Rust is the oxidation of pure iron to iron II oxide (Fe2O3).

We can see that there are two iron atoms per mole of Fe2O3 whereas there is only one iron atom in each mole of pure iron.

Therefore, iron oxide has more mass than the iron because there are more iron atoms in iron oxide than in pure iron.
