Methane gas, which may be present in confined spaces such as a basement, can cause death by asphyxiation.

<h3>What are the dangers of methane gas in confined space?</h3>

Low amounts are safe for inhalation. A significant amount can replace oxygen in the atmosphere. Reduced oxygen availability can cause symptoms like weariness, emotional instability, fast breathing, and rapid heart rate. Insufficient oxygen can cause nausea, vomiting, collapse, convulsions, coma. The onset of symptoms is accelerated by physical activity. Organs including the heart and brain can suffer long-term damage from a lack of oxygen.

Contact with Skin: Not irritating. The skin might become chilled or frozen when in direct touch with the liquid gas (frostbite). Itching and numbness are signs of mild frostbite. Burning and rigidity are signs of more serious frostbite.

No evidence of carcinogenicity.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

Explanation:

Iron can be formed in two steps.

Step 1: 2 C(s) + O₂(g) → 2 CO(g)

Step 2: Fe₂O₃(s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂(g)

In order to get the net chemical equation, we will multiply the first step by 3, the second step by 2, and then add them.

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) → 6 CO(g)

+

2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 6 CO(g) + 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

yaroslaw [1]

The position is the strength of the magnetic field strongest is is the place where the magnetic field leaves, being point A.

<h3>What generates a magnetic field?</h3>

When an electrically charged particle moves, it creates a magnetic field. According to the laws of electromagnetism, this magnetic field originates from the variation of the electric field strength.

In the region of the poles we see that the lines of magnetic induction are closer to each other, therefore, we consider that close to the poles the magnetic field is more intense.
