Earth's greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere and warm the planet.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer to this problem is D.

Explanation:

Firstly, light from the sun passes through Earth's atmosphere to reach Earth's surface and heat the planet. However, some of this light is radiated back into space in the form of infrared radiation. This radiation is trapped by Earth's greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing Earth's surface to heat up. For this reason, choice D makes the most sense.

What is the mass of 5 moles of Fe2(CO3)3 ?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1218.585

Explanation:

Looking at the subscripts we know there are 2 atoms of Fe, 3 atoms of C, and 6 of O.

Take the molar mass of each atom (from the periodic table) and multiply by the # of atoms

Fe: 55.845×2= 111.69

C: 12.011×3= 36.033

O:15.999×6=95.994

Add the values together: 243.717 g/mol

That is 1 mole of the molecule. Multiply by 5 for the final answer.

243.717×5=1218.585

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:9.49g/mL

Explanation:

Mass of toy = 43.672g

Volume of water = 34.4mL

Volume of toy + volume of water = 39mL

Volume of toy = 39 — 34.4 = 4.6mL

Density = Mass /volume

Density = 43.672/4.6 = 9.49g/mL

How does the structure of covalent bonds affects their structure.
Black_prince [1.1K]
Covalent bond is a type of chemical bond which is formed as a result of sharing of electron pairs among the elements that are involved. The structure of the covalent bond is affected by the electronegativity of the elements involved. The molecules joined by covalent bond range in size from very small to very large polymers. There are different types of structures for covalent substances, these include: macromolecular substances, molecular substances and giant covalent structures. Strong bonds hold individual molecules together but there are negligible forces of attraction among them.
