Researchers have developed a biofuel that is an alcohol-based gasoline alternative made from non-food resources such as algae. The biofuel can be combine with gasoline to increase the energy outputs in automobile engines. How will the use of biofuel change how humans use energy resources? O Biofuel will decrease the use of gasoline in the automobile industry, decreasing the need for nonrenewable energy resources. O Biofuel will decrease the production of algae in the automobile industry, decreasing the need for nonrenewable energy resources. O Biofuel will decrease the amount of fuel for automobiles, increasing the need for renewable energy resources. O Biofuel will decrease the number of automobiles sold each year, increasing the need for renewable energy resources. Copyright C2021 Certica Solutions, Inc.
The Half-life of Pennies Lab Can you use pennies to demonstrate "decay? Imagine existing more than 5,000 years and still having more than 5,000 to go! That is exactly what the unstable element carbon-14 does. Carbon-14 is a special unstable element used in the absolute dating of material that was once alive, such as fossil bones. Every 5,730 years, half of the carbon-14 in a fossil specimen decays or breaks down into a more stable element. In the following lab you will see how pennies can show the same kind of "decay." Materials • 100 pennies • large container with a cover Procedure a. Place 100 pennies in a large, covered container. Shake the container several times and remove the cover. Carefully empty the container on a flat surface, making sure the pennies don't roll away. b. Remove all the coins that have the "head" side of the coin turned upward. Record the number of pennies removed and the number of pennies remaining in the data table below. Shake number Number of coins removed…
A space shuttle carrying humans and science experiments contains an air ratio similar to (but not the same as) Earth: 77% of the air is a mix of N2 and Ar. The rest is O2. The total cargo volume of space shuttle's air is 25,400 L. What volume of oxygen is in the space shuttle?
