Chapter 4, Problem 4.95E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The explanation for the formation of NO when a fuel such as natural gas, CH4, is burned in air at a high temperature is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Natural gas is a nonrenewable fuel that is obtained either from the waste of the living organism or from the dead organisms. When natural gases are burned in the presence of oxygen, a huge amount of energy is produced. Burning of natural gases is not environmental friendly as it produces lots of greenhouse gases.

Like CO2, water has two polar bonds but unlike CO2, water is polar overall. Explain why this is so?
How does CO2 cause more heat to be retained in the Earth's atmosphere? Which one of the options?1. it reacts with oxygen to produce ozone, which retains more heat than oxygen. 2. Carbon dioxide when dissolved in water forms carbonic acid. 3. It is a greenhouse gas that absorbs infrared radiation due to its shape and size.
Answer the questions in the table below about the shape of the borane (BH3) molecule. How many electron groups are around the central boron atom? Note: one "electron group" means one lone pair, one single bond, one double bond, or one triple bond. What phrase best describes the arrangement of these electron groups around the central boron atom? (You may need to use the scrollbar to see all the choices.) (choose one) X G <
