Concept introduction:
Lewis structures are diagrams that represent the
It is also known as Lewis dot structures which represent the bonding between atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.
Dots represent the electron position around the atoms and lines or dot pairs represent covalent bonds between atoms.
The Lewis structure is based on the concept of the octet rule so that the electrons shared in each atom should have 8 electrons in its outer shell.

- Give explanation of the correct option and explanation of the incorrect options. Hand written solutions strictly prohibited.arrow_forwardO(1D) is just O* O(3P) is just oxgen molecule O. adapted from the textbook atmospheric chemistry: from the surface to the stratosphere (Grant Ritcie) could you plz provide the solutions for questions A to Farrow_forwardOzone is most depleted in Antarctica although very few people live there. Scientists believe that this is observed because: a) there are many coal powered plants there b) the cold climate favors the formation of atmospheric ice crystals which catalyze ozone decomposition c) The abundance of polar bears compensates for the low human population d) the Russians are conducting secret research there which emits gases which destroy ozonearrow_forward
- Carbon dioxide emissions associated with a one-night stay in a hotel room are calculated at 29.53 kg of CO2 per room day for an average hotel. The 200 rooms of your hotel are all occupied for two days during a college football game. How much CO2 did the guests and hotel release into the atmosphere?arrow_forwardHow does the ground temperature in sunlight with CO2 compare with ground temperature in sunlight without CO2?arrow_forward8. The Ottawa Charter is increasingly used to guide the development of health promotion activities in Australia in relation to a range of issues including smoking, road safety and skin cancer. Explain the workings of the Ottawa Charterarrow_forward
- 4. What is global warming? How is it different from the greenhouse effect? 5. What is the cause of the increase in the mean global temperature? ..............arrow_forwardwhat should be done to mitigate the impacts of ocean acidification on the Great Barrier Reefarrow_forwardA chemist, during the course of an analysis, runs across a chemical composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in the proportion 1:2:1 and having a six-sided molecular shape. It is probably (a) a pentose, (b) an amino acid, (c) a fatty acid, (d) a monosaccharide, (e) a nucleic acid.arrow_forward
- 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 1–3arrow_forwardWhich of these could be sources of chemical compounds that could be used by life in Europa's ocean, if such life exists? Check the TWO choices that best apply. a The creation of organic molecules when ultraviolet light from the Sun gets through the ice. b The bombardment of the surface ice by Jupiter's intense radiation c The eruption of organic chemicals from volcanoes in the icy shell. d The cycling of ocean water through minerals in the seafloor.arrow_forwardWhy is it important to decrease the level of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere?arrow_forward
