34. Define acid rain.

35. What is metamorphosis?

38. Define cataract.​

32.Coke is a grey, hard, and porous fuel with a high carbon content and few impurities, made by heating coal or oil in the absence of air—a destructive distillation process. It is an important industrial product, used mainly in iron ore smelting, but also as a fuel in stoves and forges when air pollution is a concern.

33.examples to show that plastics are non corrosive in nature: Iron nails get rusted when exposed to moisture and air but plastic do not react with water and air. Plastic does not react with strong chemicals. Hence,cleansing chemicals are stored in plastic bottles and not in metal containers.

34.rainfall made sufficiently acidic by atmospheric pollution that it causes environmental harm, typically to forests and lakes. The main cause is the industrial burning of coal and other fossil fuels, the waste gases from which contain sulfur and nitrogen oxides, which combine with atmospheric water to form acids.

35.in an insect or amphibian) the process of transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages.

38.a medical condition in which the lens of the eye becomes progressively opaque, resulting in blurred vision.

Explanation:

Hope it helps!

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.

explanation:

> b takes place in the gas phase in an isothermal tubular reactor. the feed is one mole of a per one mole of c, an inert. the entering temperature and pressure are 427°c and 10 atm, respectively. the gas constant r = 0.08206 atm · l/mol · k.
