The release of methane from thawed permafrost.

Explanation:

The complete question is

A group of scientists in Alaska notices that not only have atmospheric CO2 levels increased at their sampling site but so too have methane levels. What could account for this increase in methane levels?

- None of the answer options is correct.

- The release of methane from thawed permafrost.

-A decrease in beef production near the researchers' sampling area.

-The melting of permafrost accompanied by the thawing of methane-producing bacteria.

-The failure of rice paddies to be established in Alaska, given its climate.

Permafrost regions like the arctic circle hold a large supply supply of methane in their soils and their seas. Ordinarily, this methane should be gradually released naturally over a long period of time, but the effects of global warming is making these permafrost to thaw at a much faster rate, accelerating the release of methane into the atmosphere. The dark side is that methane is about 80 times more deadly when compared to CO2 in its contribution to the green house effect on earth.

1.consider the following balanced equation and answer parts a through. show calculations for each part.

3 ag(s) + 4 hno3(aq) → 3 agno3(aq) + no(g) + 2 h2o(l)

a. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 3 moles of ag with excess hno3. if the number to the left of the compound represents the number of moles of the compound which are present, then 3 moles of ag react with 4 moles hno3 to produce 3 moles agno3 (aq).

so the answer to a would be 3 moles.

b. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.

i'm not sure how to plug in the grams of silver into an equation using moles to find how many moles are produced.

c. calculate the number of grams of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3

d. calculate the number of moles of no produced as a byproduct of the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.

e. calculate the number of grams of no produced as a byproduct starting with 108 grams of ag and excess hno3.

Asample of ammonia reacts with oxygen as shown. 4nh3(g) + 5o2(g) 4no(g) + 6h2o(g) what is the limiting reactant if 4.0 g of nh3 react with 8.0 g of oxygen? o2 because it produces only 0.20 mol of no. nh3 because it produces only 0.20 mol of no. o2 because it produces two times less no than nh3. nh3 because it produces three times more no than o2.
