Which of these actions a sustainable practice? a. expanding the amount of fossil fuels extracted b. setting usage limits on a resource c. overconsuming a resource d. exceeding fossil fuel emissions targets

A sustainable practice is B. Setting usage limits on a resource

Sustainable practices are those that aim to reach an equilibrium between the use of natural resources for human development, and the preservation of the environment for future generations.

Setting usage limits on a resource is a sustainable practice because it allows for taking advantage of the resource, while providing constraints to its use, forcing the industry to be creative and develop alternative methods that take better advantage of that resource, or that use different resources (e.g. limiting fossil fuel emissions, forcing the industry to find alternative ways to generate power like solar energy).

Have a nice day!

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
