How would increased chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the atmosphere affect the growth of vegetation throughout the world?

Chemistry

Chlorofluorocarbons are a class of organic compounds that were used as propellants in the late 20th century. The problem with CFC's is that they attack the ozone layer, breaking it down. The weakened ozone layer is not able to stop UV light from reaching the earth, so the amount of UV light reaching the earth increases. This results in increased temperatures, and the death of vegetation.

Therefore, the answer is B.

Ultraviolet light will increase on earth's surface. It will "raise" temperatures and decrease plant populations. Actually UV rays do not increase temperature, that's wrong.

They cause mutations in several organisms as they modify their DNA. They also cause skin cancer in humans and also cataracts and sunburns.

But they don't increase temperature. That's carbon dioxide accumulation.

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 250 mL at .8 atm of pressure. What volume will it occupy at 1.2 atm of pressure?
musickatia [10]
167 mL

P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = .8 atm
V1 = 250 mL
P2 = 1.2 atm

Solve for V2 —> V2 = P1V1/P2

V2 = (0.8 atm)(250 mL) / (1.2 atm) = 167 mL

Leon uses a pressure gauge to measure the air pressure in one of his car tires. The gauge shows that the pressure is 220 kilopas
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

53.8 L

Explanation:

Ideal gas law

PV=nRT

must be for volume so we arrange to V=nRT/P

V= (4.8)(8.31)(297)/220

g a package of aluminum foil contains 50 ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 8.0 oz. aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. w
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

1.8×10^-2mm or 0.018mm

Explanation:

Density = mass/Volume

But volume= area×thickness

Area= 50ft2= 46451.52cm2

Mass=8oz= 226.7962g

Density= 2.70g/cm3

Thickness= mass/density ×area

= 226.7962/46451.52×2.70= 1.8×10-3cm= 1.8×10^-2mm
