This question is about the Earth's atmosphere
Scientists have been using data from the Kepler space telescope to look for planets in
the Milky Way galaxy which might be similar to Earth. They have spotted a planet that
they think is like the early Earth. The atmosphere is mainly carbon dioxide.
Which process was responsible for producing gases in the early atmosphere?

Radon-222 or rn-222 has a half-life of 3.82 days. to determine the fraction of an original sample of rn-222 that remains unchanged after 7.646 days, we calculate the amount of rn-222 remaining after 7.646 days and divide it with the original amount. using 1 gram as a basis and using half-life calculation methods, we can determine that  0.249 or 0.25  grams of rn-222 will remain, and thus the fraction remaining is 0.25 or 1/4.

Given data,temperature, t = 230°c = 503 kconsider the chemical reaction,ch₃oh(l) + 1/2 o₂(g)  → ch₂o(g) + h₂o(l)calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction: δh⁰rxn =  σnδh⁰f(products) -  σmδh⁰f(reactants)substitute the values from the table: δh⁰rxn = { -115.9 + (-285.8)} - {0+(-238.7)}              = -163.0 kjcalculate the entropy change for the reaction.δs⁰rxn = (219 + 70) - (127.2 + 1/2 x 205.2) = 59.2 j/kconsider the expression for free energy: δg⁰rxn =  δh⁰rxn - t  δs⁰rxnsubstitute the values in the above equationδg⁰rxn = -163 x 10³ - (503 x 59.2)              = -192777.6 j              = -192.777 kj
