In 1995, Mario Molina, Paul Crutzen, and F. SherwoodRowland shared the Nobel Prize in chemistry for their work onatmospheric chemistry. One of several reaction sequences pro-posed for the role of chlorine in the decomposition of strato-spheric ozone is (1) Cl(g) +O3(g)→ ClO(g) +O₂(g) (2) ClO(g) +ClO(g)→ Cl₂O₂(g) (3) Cl₂O₂→ (g)2Cl(g)+ O₂(g).Over the tropics, O atoms are more common in the stratosphere:(4) ClO(g) +O(g)→ Cl(g) +O₂(g).(a) Which, if any, of these are oxidation-reduction reactions?(b) Write an overall equation combining reactions 1–3
The reaction between ammonia and oxygen is given below:
4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H,0(g)
We therefore know that which of the following reactions can also occur?
2 NH3(g) + 2 02(g) → N20(g) + 3 H20(1)
4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g) → 4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g)
N,0(g) + 3 H,0(1) → 2 NH3(g) + 2 02(g)
O None of the Above
The initial step in the formation of O3 from O2 in the stratosphere is the absorption of light by 02, which causes it to split into O atoms.
The balanced chemical equation for this process is
02 (g) → 2 0 (g)
If AHP for O (g) is +249.17 kJ/mole, what wavelength of light, in nm, must be absorbed by 02 to make this reaction occur? Enter only the
numerical portion of your answer in the space provided, to the correct number of significant figures; do not enter the units.

Compared to the speed of sound in a bar of U235, is the speed of sound in a bar of U238 higher, lower, or the same? There are several factors that play a role. (a) Chemically, the atoms of these two isotopes behave in essentially identical ways, since the number of protons (92) is identical and the clouds of 92 electrons are nearly identical. The interatomic distance, and the effective "stiffness" of the interatomic bond, both depend on the chemical properties of the atoms. Therefore, which of the following statements are true? O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is greater for U238 because the mass is greater. O The effective stiffness of the interatomic "spring" is the same in the two isotopes, since this "spring" is a model for the interactions of the outer electrons, which are the same for different isotopes of the same atom. O An atom with more mass in the nucleus is bigger, so the distance…arrow_forward
