Why is water vapor (H2O) also considered a greenhouse gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
zepelin [54]3 years ago

Answer:

Water vapour is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, both by weight and by volume (1), (2). Water vapour is also an effective greenhouse gas, as it does absorb longwave radiation and radiates it back to the surface, thus contributing to warming

How many molecules are in 100 g of C6H120,?*​
Grace [21]

Answer:

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 100 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of C₆H₁₂O₆:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 100 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.56 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.56 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Laser fusion Group of answer choices uses chemical reactions to produce energy uses nuclear reactions to produce energy implodes
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Uses nuclear reactions to produce energy

Implodes a fuel pellet

Explanation:

Laser fusion is a method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions through heating, and compressing fuel pellets containing deuterium and tritium using high energy density laser beams. Lase fusion is also known as inertial confinement fusion and the energy produced by the process is known as Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, LIFE.

During the process of laser fusion, small pellets of deuterium-tritium (DT) isotopes mixture are fed into a blast chamber where they are compressed to high densities using a number of amplified laser beams in the chamber.

The high energy density of the beams as well as the heat produced due to compression, induces the thermonuclear explosion ignition resulting in the production of high energetic products such as charged particles, x-rays and neutrons. The energy produced is absorbed and stored as heat in a blanket that is then used in a steam thermal cycle to generate electrical power.

There are two methods of compression of the DT pellet: direct and indirect-drive laser fusions.

However, there are a number of limitations to energy production by this process. One limitation is that the process is extremely inefficient in energy energy production. Also, the heat produced by the flashtubes results innthe deformation of the laser glass.

Decide what the best solution would be if you reach your lab table and find a broken beaker with liquid spilling out.
alukav5142 [94]
There are many safety precautions and rules you MUST follow during labs. 
for this incident here is what you should do:
1)Notify your Instructor and partner 
2) if the liquid is toxic (like not water or vinegar) then let your Instructor handle it properly, or follow your instructors orders (like if they say to put a towel over it or something like that)
3) Broken glassware, minus mercury thermometer, must be immediately cleaned up, do not use your bare hand, always wear gloves.
4)dispose of the broken glass properly and clean the liquid up (unless it is harmful, then let your instructor do it)

Question 4
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A. She can run the same distance in a shorter amount of time.

Explanation:

Speed can be computed with the formula:

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

Where:

v = speed

d = distance

t = time

So if you look at the formula, distance there tells you how far an object has traveled, and the time tells us how long it took to cover that distance. As you can see, speed and time are <u>inversely proportional. </u>This means that as one goes up, the other goes down. So if we reduce time travelling a certain distance, the speed increases.
