List four greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. For each gas, describe its prevalence in the atmosphere, its natural sources, its human-induced sources, and how its concentration in the atmosphere might be changing.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrous Oxide and Fuorinated Gases

Explanation:Carbon dioxide (CO2): Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through burning fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and oil), solid waste, trees and other biological materials, and also as a result of certain chemical reactions (e.g., manufacture of cement). Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere (or "sequestered") when it is absorbed by plants as part of the biological carbon cycle.

Methane (CH4): Methane is emitted during the production and transport of coal, natural gas, and oil. Methane emissions also result from livestock and other agricultural practices and by the decay of organic waste in municipal solid waste landfills.

Nitrous oxide (N2O): Nitrous oxide is emitted during agricultural and industrial activities, combustion of fossil fuels and solid waste, as well as during treatment of wastewater.

Fluorinated gases: Hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, and nitrogen trifluoride are synthetic, powerful greenhouse gases that are emitted from a variety of industrial processes. Fluorinated gases are sometimes used as substitutes for stratospheric ozone-depleting substances (e.g., chlorofluorocarbons, hydrochlorofluorocarbons, and halons). These gases are typically emitted in smaller quantities, but because they are potent greenhouse gases, they are sometimes referred to as High Global Warming Potential gases ("High GWP gases").

What is the relationship between an object's mass and its ability to pick up speed, or accelerate?

Answers

Answer:

It is momentum

Since momentum is proportional to the product of mass and velocity

Answer:

The greater the object's mass, the longer it takes to pick up speed or accelerate. There is an inverse relationship between mass and acceleration/picking up speed.

Analyze. This reaction releases energy as heat. Explain whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic and whether it obeys the laws of Conservation or energy

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If heat is given out in a reaction, then that reaction is exothermic. If heat is absorbed in a reaction, then that reaction is endothermic.

Hence, if heat is given out, the reaction is exothermic. The heat given out does work on the surrounding thus the laws of conservation of energy are obeyed.

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic.

What is the percent of Nitrogen in NH3?

Answers

Answer:

82.244%

Explanation:

The mass percent is an important method which is used to calculate the concentration of a solution. The mass percent of nitrogen in NH₃ is 82.2%.

What is mass percentage?

The mass percentage of a particular component in a compound can be defined as the ratio of the mass of the particular component to the total mass of the compound.

The equation which is used to calculate the mass percentage is:

Mass percentage = Mass of the component / Total mass of the compound × 100

or

The mass percentage is also calculated as:

% Mass = Mass fraction × 100

Here the mass of 'N' = 14.00 g

The molar mass of NH₃ = 17.031 g/mol

% Mass of 'N' = 14.00 / 17.031 = 0.82

0.82 × 100 = 82.2 %

Thus the mass percentage of nitrogen is 82.2 %.

Which subatomic particle can be found revolving around the nucleus?
proton
neutron
electron

Answers

Answer : The correct option is, electron.

Explanation :

As we know that,

An atom is the smallest unit of a matter that consist of three subatomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

The protons and the neutrons are located inside the nucleus or the center of the nucleus where the mass of the an atom is concentrated.

The electrons are located around the nucleus.

The protons are positively charged, the electrons are negatively charged and the neutrons are neutral that means it has no charge.

According to the question, the electron subatomic particle found revolving around the nucleus.

Hence, the correct option is electron.

how is the potential (voltage) of a redox reaction determined using the reduction potential chart calculate the voltage for the equation in 3(a)​

Answers

Answer:

Oxidation  half  reaction  is  written   as    follows when  using  using  reduction potential  chart

example  when  using  copper  it is  written  as  follows

CU2+   +2e-  --> c(s)  +0.34v

oxidasation  is the  loos  of  electron  hence copper oxidation  potential  is  as  follows

cu (s)  -->  CU2+   +2e    -0.34v

Explanation:

Answer:

The potential difference is caused by the ability of electrons to flow from one half cell to the other. Electrons are able to move between electrodes because the chemical reaction is a redox reaction. ... The cell potential (Ecell) is measured in voltage (V), which allows us to give a certain value to the cell potential.

What is the mass in grams of
0.625 mol Ba(NO3)2?(please show work)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the formula as follows: mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Ba(NO3)2

= 137 + (14 + 48)2

= 137 + 124

= 261g/mol

Mole = mass ÷ molar mass

0.625 mol = mass/261g/mol

mass = 0.625 × 261

mass = 163g

An 18.0 g piece of an unidentified metal was heated from 21.5 °C to 89.0 °C. If 789.75 J of heat energy was absorbed by the metal in the heating process, what was the identity
of the metal?

Answers

Answer: The metal is Calcium.

Explanation:

To calculate the specific heat of substance during the reaction.

[tex]q=m\times c\times \Delta T[/tex]

where,

q = heat absorbed = 789.75 J

c = specific heat of metal = ?

m = mass of substance = 18.0 g

[tex]\Delta T_f[/tex] = final temperature  - initial temperature  = [tex](89.0-21.5)^0C=67.5^0C[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

[tex]789.75J=18.0g\times c\times 67.5^0C[/tex]

[tex]c=0.65J/g^0C[/tex]

As specific heat is characteristic of each metal and thus the metal is calcium which has  specific heat of [tex]0.65J/g^0C[/tex]
