Answer:
increase in the air pressure
Explanation:
The barometer is a device that is used for measuring the air pressure. It is a device that uses mercury in order to show the air pressure. The mercury reacts easily to the changes in the air pressure, so it is a nice indicator for it. The air pressure can simply be defined as the weight of the air masses, and the pressure they make it because of it on the objects. The lower the air pressure, the higher up the mercury will go, as it will experience less pressure from the air, and the higher the air pressure, the lower the mercury will drop, as it will experience more pressure from the air.

Answer:
C.) No. of electrons
Explanation:
A.) is incorrect. The atomic number represents the number of protons in an element. Nitrogen (N) and sodium (Na) always have a differing amount of protons.
B.) is incorrect. The mass number represents the number of protons and neutrons in an element. The number of neutrons and protons are specific to each element (disregarding isotopes). When elements ionize, these amounts are not altered.
C.) is correct. When an element becomes an ion, the number of electrons change. When nitrogen gains 3 electrons and sodium loses 1 electron, they end up having the same number of electrons (10).
D.) is incorrect. When elements ionize, the number of neutrons does not change. The only way two different elements could have the same number of neutrons is if at least one of the elements is an isotope. Isotopes are two or more atoms of the same element that differ in their amounts of neutrons.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The answer is C because machines such as tractors and sprinklers are counted as technology, and are better examples than pesticides.
The reaction for the combustion of methane can be expressed as follows.
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O
We solve first for the amount of carbon dioxide in moles by dividing the given volume by 22.4L which is the volume of 1 mole of gas at STP.
moles of CO2 = (5.6 L) / (22.4 L/1 mole)
moles of CO2 = 0.25 moles
Then, we can see that every mole of carbon dioxide will need 1 mole of methane
moles methane = (0.25 moles CO2) x (1 moles O2/1 mole CO2)
= 0.25 moles CH4
Then, multiply this by the molar mass of methane which is 16 g/mole. Thus, the answer is 4 grams methane.
