Photosynthesizing plants and algae convert light energy into chemical energy, which then gets passed through the food web to plant eaters, flesh eaters, and ultimately to scavengers and decomposers.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Extensive properties vary with the amount of the substance and include mass, weight, and volume. Intensive properties, in contrast, do not depend on the amount of the substance; they include color, melting point, boiling point, electrical conductivity, and physical state at a given temperature.

Why is it commonly believed that carbon dioxide is responsible for global warming? Select 2 options.
monitta

Answer:

Carbon dioxide levels in the Earth's atmosphere have been steadily increasing.

Carbon has a longer average lifetime in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Today the level of carbon dioxide is higher than at any time in human history. Scientists widely agree that Earth’s average surface temperature has already increased by about 2 F (1 C) since the 1880s, and that human-caused increases in carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases are extremely likely to be responsible.

The lifetime in the air of CO2, the most significant man-made greenhouse gas, is probably the most difficult to determine, because there are several processes that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Between 65% and 80% of CO2 released into the air dissolves into the ocean over a period of 20–200 years.

Which statements about the structure of the periodic table are true?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Below are the statements which are true about the structure of the periodic table:

B: The inner transition elements are placed at the bottom of the periodic table for easy viewing.

D: The distribution of electrons in energy levels is responsible for the shape of the periodic table.

Explanation:

Point A:

As we know that in a periodic table there are 7 period s and 18 groups. So, the number of periods is evidently lesser than the number of groups. But the shape of periodic table is regular and rectangular so point A is false.

Point B:

The inner transition elements or -f block elements are put at the bottom for easy viewing. These are the elements that have the valence electrons only  in the f-orbital's. Therefore, they are placed separately at the bottom side of the table so that they can be easily viewed or studied from there. So, point B is true.

Point C:

If we talk about option C, then it is very clear and true that considering a rectangular shape of the periodic table, the groups are vertically arranged and periods are horizontally arranged, therefore it is false.

Point D:

Atoms of all elements have definite electronic distribution in different energy levels like s, p d or f. This is a very prominent feature of periodic tale that elements are divided in specific blocks, s, p, d and f based on their electronic configurations. Therefore, it is true.

Point E:

We also know that no. of metals in a periodic table are more than the no. of non metals like almost 91 out of 118 elements  are metals in periodic table. Therefore, the point E "Nonmetals take up more than half the area of the periodic table." is false.

Hope it helps!

Based on the vibrational difference you observed, state a hypothesis to explain why diatomic molecules in the air, such as oxyge
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The ability of a gas to function as a green house gas depends on its ability to absorb infra red rays. In turn, the absorption of infrared red rays depends on whether or not the molecule is IR active.

The triatomic molecules such as methane and water are IR active. Only IR active molecules can lead to green house effect.

Note that for a molecular vibrational mode to be IR active, the dipole moment of the molecule is changed as the vibration occurs .
