For this experiment, you used 0.25 g of sodium bicarbonate, which is a relatively small mass of solid. Identify the potential
consequences of using a much larger mass of sodium bicarbonate.
The flask could explode.
The heat of the reaction might cause boiling.
The reaction would not occur.
The stopper of the flask could pop off.
The temperature of the reaction would decrease significantly.
Consider the structures of greenhouse gases, CO2 and CH4. Carbon dioxide has a very long lifetime in the air (centuries) versus methane that has a relatively short lifetime (decade). The lifetime of a molecule is also a reflection of the bonding and stability of the molecule. Discuss why you think these greenhouse gases have such different lifetimes in the atmosphere based on molecular structure, bond types, etc...
What is the greenhouse effect? How does the excess CO2 gas in the atmosphere cause the greenhouse effect?

- 3. In this experiment, you will be studying the oxidation strength of the halogens. a. What is the color of each of the halogens that you will be working with in this experiment? b. Write Lewis dot structures for each of the halogen molecules: F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2. c. On the basis of periodic trends, which of the halogen molecules do you expect to have the shortest bond? Explain why.arrow_forwardThe greenhouse effect is a natural process that maintains the Earth's temperature within a range that sustains life. Which statement accurately describes the cause of the enhanced greenhouse effect? O a. Burning fossil fuels causes an increase in the amount of atmospheric greenhouse gases, such as CO2, resulting in the enhanced greenhouse effect. O b. Increased amounts of solar energy and infrared radiation are trapped by atmospheric greenhouse gases as a result of the sun burning hotter, which contributes to the enhanced greenhouse effect. O c. Cellular respiration and photosynthesis use CO2 from the atmosphere, reducing the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. o d. Ultraviolet radiation from cyclic solar flares enhance the greenhouse effect by increasing the amount of thermal radiation absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.arrow_forwardCarbon naturally occurs in two forms: diamond and graphite. Why do these two forms have very different properties? The key difference is that diamonds have other elements bonded within their structure. The differences are explained by the number of covalent and ionic bonds within each substance. The differences are explained by the density: graphite is very high and diamond is much lower. The differences are explained by how the carbon atoms within each substance are covalently bonded together.arrow_forward
