What are some downsides to fossil fuels? (Select all that apply.) pls help im timed

They are expensive to extract compared to other forms of energy.

They release large amounts of carbon dioxide when burned.

They do not replenish themselves.

They are in a limited supply.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B, C and D

Explanation:

Fossil fuels include coal, petroleum, natural gas, oil shales, bitumens, tar sands, and heavy oils. When fossil fuels are burned, they release large amounts of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into the air.

Although fossil fuels are continually formed by natural processes, they are classified as non-renewable resources because they take millions of years to form.

fossil fuels, are called nonrenewable, which means they have a limited supply and are not continuously being made or they are made very slowly

B. The gas molecules possess kinetic energy.
C. The gas molecules interact with one another.
D. The gas molecules exert pressure on a container.

Answers

Answer: the gas molecules interact with one another

Explanation:

According to the forces of attraction, the  gas molecules interacting  with one another makes a gas non - ideal.

What are forces of attraction?

Forces of attraction  is a force by which atoms in a molecule  combine. it is basically an attractive force in nature.  It can act between an ion  and an atom as well.It varies for different  states  of matter that is solids, liquids and gases.

The forces of attraction are maximum in solids as  the molecules present in solid are tightly held while it is minimum in gases  as the molecules are far apart . The forces of attraction in liquids is intermediate of solids and gases.

The physical properties such as melting point, boiling point, density  are all dependent on forces of attraction which exists in the substances.

If we accelerate a radioactive isotope of an element in a particle accelerator to a speed close to that of light, what would its observed mass be compared to its mass at rest

Answers

When the speed of the particle is close to that of light, it's observed mass would be infinitely large.

To answer the question, we need to know what observed mass is.

What is observed mass in relativity?

This is the mass the body of an object in relativistic motion appears to have.

So, observed mass, m' = m/√(1 - β²) where

m = rest mass and β = relative velocity of isotope to light.

Now, since the speed of the particle is close to that of light, β ≅ 1.

So, m' = m/√(1 - β²)

m' = m/√(1 - 1²)

m' = m/√(1 - 1)

m' = m/√0

m' = m/0

m' = ∞

So, when the speed of the particle is close to that of light, it's observed mass would be infinitely large.

Write the balanced chemical equation for the extraction of iron in the thermite reaction.

2AI + Fe₂O3 = 2Fe + Al2 O3

From the above reaction, state the:

a) Electropositive metal -
b) Less electropositive metal -
c) Reducing agent -​

Answers

In the given chemical reaction iron is less electropositive metal and aluminum is more electropositive and behave as a reducing agent also.

What is electropositivity?

Electropositivity is the ability of an atom of donation or losing of electrons easily.

From the given chemical reaction it is clear that oxidation state of iron changes from +3 to 0 & of aluminum is from 0 to +3. So in the above chemical reaction aluminum is more electropositive than iron metal. And aluminum is behave as a reducing agent as it helps in the reduction process by providing electrons.

Hence aluminum is electropositive metal and reducing agent, iron is less electropositive.

Detective Gundy found several areas in a warehouse where fires appeared to have started. What can he MOST likely conclude from this
evidence?
A Someone deliberately set fires at different points around the warehouse
B. Several people accidentally dropped lit cigarettes around the warehouse
OC Strong winds spread the fire throughout multiple areas in the warehouse,
D. There was no accelerant used to start any of these fires

Answers

Given what we know, we can confirm that based on the evidence found, someone deliberately set fires at different points around the warehouse.

Why do we think the fires were deliberate?

This has to do with the natural way in which fires spread. Fires that occur naturally or accidentally tend to concentrate in one place, then spread throughout the warehouse over time, however, this is not what the detective found. Instead, there are indications that multiple fires started simultaneously.

Therefore, given the very unlikely nature of this occurring naturally, we can confirm that based on the evidence found, someone deliberately set fires at different points around the warehouse.

A gas collected from a reaction has a mass of 1.211 g and occupies a volume of 0.677 L. The temperature in the laboratory is 296 K, and the air pressure is 0.987 atm. Calculate the molar mass of the gas.

23.7 g/mol
44.0 g/mol
58.5 g/mol
82.3 g/mol

Answers

Answer: 44.0 g/mol

Explanation:

[tex]M=m.RT/PV[/tex]

M=1.211*0.082*296/ 0.987*0.677

M= 44 g/mol

A gas collected from a reaction has a mass of 1.211 g and occupies a volume of 0.677 L. The temperature in the laboratory is 296 K, and the air pressure is 0.987 atm  the molar mass of the gas 23.7 g/mol. option A is correct.

What is gas law?

The universal gas law given by Boyle, Charles , Avogadro and Gauss known as combined gas law with respect to temperature, volume and pressure using universal gas constant and number of moles.

According to universal gas equation or combined gas equation

          P V = n R T

where , P = pressure

             V = volume

              n = number of moles

              R = universal gas constant = 8.313

               T = temperature

n = W / M.M

W = weight

M.M = molar mass

substituting the value in the equation

0.987 × 0.677 = 1.211 / M.M × 8.313 × 296

M.M = 23.7 g/mol

Therefore, gas collected from a reaction has a mass of 1.211 g and occupies a volume of 0.677 L. The temperature in the laboratory is 296 K, and the air pressure is 0.987 atm  the molar mass of the gas 23.7 g/mol. option A is correct.

How many grams of He are necessary to fill a balloon having a volume of 4.50 × 10^{3} mL to a pressure of 1.14 × 10^{3} torr at 25.0ºC?

Answers

The mass in grams of He are necessary to fill a balloon having a volume of 4.50×10³ mL to a pressure of 1.14×10³ torr at 25.0ºC is 1.104 grams.

How do we calculate the grams from moles?

Mass (W) in grams from moles (n) will be calculated by using the below equation:
n = W/M, where

M = molar mass

Moles of helium gas will be calculated by using the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT, where

R = universal gas constant = 62.363 L.torr / K.mol

P = pressure of gas = 1.14×10³ torr

V = volume of gas = 4.50×10³ mL = 4.50 L

n = moles of gas = ?

T = temperature = 25.0ºC = 298 K

On putting these values on the ideal gas equation, we get

n = (1140)(4.5) / (62.363)(298) = 5130 / 18584

n = 0.276 moles

Now we convert this moles into mass by using the first equation as:

W = (0.276mol)(4g/mol) = 1.104 g

Hence required mass of helium gas is 1.104 grams.
