Forests are considered carbon storage sinks because?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is removed from the atmosphere (absorbed by trees), and the carbon is stored as sugar molecules. A forest is trees in abundance; and carbon is significant for energy, is significant to life.
Air pressure becomes lowet as water molecules are addrd to the air because water molecules?
Air pressure becomes lower as water molecules are added to the air because water molecules have less weight.
Gasoline is not solubal in water because gasoline is?
Gasoline is hydrophobic because the molecules are non-polar. Only polar molecules are soluble in water.
Why do polar and nonpolar molecules have different properties?
Compounds differ because of differences in attractions between their molecules.
Atmospheric molecules do not fly off into outer space because of?
gravity, even air molecules have weight
Are featherbed environmentally friendly?

Which chemical is banned in most of the world because it destroys ozone layer?
Chlorofluorocarbon it is. It is banned in most countries.
Why is wood an environmentally friendly product?
Could be considered environmentally friendly because it eventually decays and becomes a natural fertilizer. It could also be considered environmentally unfriendly because it decays and releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Why is an algae and seaweeds used in phycoremediation?
Because it can remove and fixate environmentally unwanted molecules like CO2, nitrogenous and phosphorous substances (in for example waste water treatment). For more information see related link

What is CFC-?
It is short for Chlorofluorocarbon. It is an organic compound that contains only carbon, chlorine, and fluorine produced as a volatile derivative of methane, ethane, and propane. Many CFCs have been used as refrigerants, propellants, and solvents. The manufacture of such compounds has been phased out under the Montreal protocol because CFCs contribute to ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere.

Is Herbal Essence products environmentally friendly?
Herbal Essence products are not considered environmentally friendly by most standards. The reason for this is because of the chemicals they use in their products.
How many sugar molecules are present in 300 mL of a 2.0 molar solution?
By the definition of molarity, a 2.0 molar solution contains twice Avodagro's Number of molecules per liter. Therefore, the stated solution contains 0.300X2X6.022Xten to the 23rd power = 3.6X ten to the twenty-third power sugar molecules. (Only two significant digits are justified, because the molarity is specified with only two significant digits.)
Why is the use of hydroelectric power viable?
