Answer:

Greenland is a huge island that is covered with ice, due to warming this ice has begun to melt, reaching a point where more ice is lost per year than is gained.

The temperature levels on earth have increased abnormally since the industrial revolution, that is since CO2 emissions increased. The extra CO2 released into the atmosphere does not allow the heat generated from the earth to be released into space, so the earth has begun to heat up more than normal, causing temperatures to rise.

To avoid this, CO2 emissions should be reduced, this could be achieved by using clean energy to generate electricity, such as solar or wind energy. Also if industries improve their processes to reduce the CO2 they produce. Another way is to reduce livestock farming as this industry also releases high amounts of CO2.

As individuals, from our homes what we can do is to reduce energy consumption if it is generated with fossil fuels, for example turn off the lights if we are not in the rooms, unplug appliances that we are not using, do not use products that come from polluting industries, among others.

A. temperature, concentration and surface area 
<span>B. temperature, and concentration only </span>
<span>C. concentration and surface area only </span>
<span>D. temperature and surface area only
</span>
Answer:
           Option-<span>A. Temperature, Concentration and Surface area
</span>
Explanation:

1) Increasing Temperature:
                                              Increase in temperature increases the Kinetic energy of molecules. This results in increase in the velocity and rate of collisions between reactants. Hence, greater the number of collisions between reactants per time greater will be the probability of formation of product per unit time.

2) Increasing Concentration
                                            Increase in concentration results in increase in number of particles of reactants per unit area, hence collision rate increases resulting in rate of reaction.

3) Increasing Surface Area
                                             Grinding of Zn results in the increase of surface area of Zinc. So greater the surface area greater is the exposure of Zinc metal to HCl molecules, hence the rate of formation of product increases.

Given that the molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and the molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol, calculate the molar mass of carbon dio
nekit [7.7K]
Molar mass of oxygen is:
M(O)=16 g/mol
Molar mass of carbon is:
M(C)=12 g/mol  
Molar mass of carbon dioxide is:
M(CO2)=M(C)+2*M(O)
 M(CO2)=12 g/mol+2*16g/mol
M(CO2)=44 g/mol

<span>Molar mass(M) is the mass of 1 mole of the substance (grams per mole of a compound).</span>
