THe total amount of water on the Earth ___from year to year and the hydrolofic cycle ____ a. stays about the same moves it from one place to another place b.increases captures it from the incoming solar radiation c. increases gains water from the earths interior d. decreases moves it from on place to another place e. decreases loses water to the atomosphere

Explanation / Answer

Q9

Nitrogen + Ozone and Oxygen will not form any kind of acidity, only CO2 will form H2CO3 (carbonic aicd)

The following reaction is formed:

CO2(g) --> CO2(aq) (dissolution of CO2 gas in aqueous solution)

CO2(aq) + H2O(l) --> H2CO3(aq) (carbonic acid formation)

H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) <--> H3O+(aq) + HCO3-(aq) (acidic formation)
