Some scientists have predicted that buildup of greenhouse gases will contribute to the occurrence of more hurricanes. Which is the MOST likely assumption used in making this prediction? O A. Acid rainfall will cause a decrease in oceanic surface temperatures. O B. Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperatures. O C. Any measurable increase in ocean surface temperatures must be caused by human activites. OD. Saturation of nitrogen in the atmosphere will cause a wide range of ocean surface temperatures.

Physical and Chemical features

The physical property of a compound could be determined without modifying the originality of the compound. Examples of physical properties are density, hardness, color, boiling, and melting point. The chemical property expresses the ability of a compound to undergo a particular chemical change.
