Question
The U.S. is one of several countries committed to reaching “net-zero” carbon emissions by 2050. This means that by 2050, all carbon dioxide emissions must be matched by the amount of carbon dioxide removed from the air. Why is it essential for all countries in the world to meet carbon reduction commitments like this

- A car releases 55.0g of CF2Cl2 each month. How much Cl is emitted into the atmosphere by this car in a year ? Show work pleasearrow_forwardSuppose a pair of chemical compounds A and B can react in two different ways: A+B C Reaction 1 gives product C. A+B D →> Reaction 2 gives product D. The following facts are known about the two reactions: • Reaction 1 is endothermic and Reaction 2 is exothermic. • If a reaction vessel is charged ("filled") with A and B, then at first C is produced faster than D. Use these facts to sketch a qualitative reaction energy diagram for both reactions. Note: because these sketches are only qualitative, the energies don't have to be exact. They only have to have the right relationship to each other. For if one energy is less than another, that fact should be clear in your sketch. energy A + B Reaction 1 reaction coordinate energy A + B Reaction 2 reaction coordinate ☑arrow_forwardBlast furnaces extract pure iron from the iron(III) oxide in iron ore in a two step sequence.
