Which function is performed by earths atmosphere? a. ultraviolet rays are prevented from reaching the ozone layer. b. earths temperature is raised and moderated by trapping in heat c. charged particles from the sun are prevented from reaching earth. d. magnetic charges from space are prevented from reaching earths surface.

Draw the skeletal structures of two different molecules that are each made of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms.

Problem page combustion of hydrocarbons such as pentane ( c5 h12 ) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere can trap the sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. for this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide.(a) write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid pentane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. (b) suppose 0.350 kg of pentane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 20.0 degree c. calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced.be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
