Question

Millions of years ago the Earth formed as a giant ball of molten rock. The outer surface cooled forming a thin, solid outer crust. Volcanic activity on the surface produced an atmosphere containing the compounds carbon dioxide, ammonia, methane and water vapour. Describe the bonding in any one of these compounds. You must include electronic structures in your explanation.

Answer 1

Answer:

Millions of years ago the Earth formed as a giant ball of molten rock. The outer surface cooled forming a thin, solid outer crust. Volcanic activity on the surface

Answer 2

Answer:

The bonding of the earth's early atmosphere is much different to the bonding in the atmosphere today

Explanation:

for example, the bonding between ammonia in the early atmosphere was produced by volcanic activity in which the light rays from the sun broke down realising nitrogen into the earth’s early atmosphere. Over the billions of years that followed the quantity of nitrogen built up to the levels, we have today.
