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.

What is the molar mass of a compound?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The molar mass of a compound is The mass in grams of 1 mole of the compound (Option A)

Explanation:

Let's take ammonia as an example (NH3)

Mass of N = 14 g

Mass of H = 1 g

Molar mass of ammonia is Mass of N + (Mass of H).3

14 + 3 = 17 g/m

Ammonia is a compound that has 1 mol of N, plus 3 moles of H (see the formula)

The number of atoms in 1 mole of the compound --> This is Avogadro

A chemical reaction occurs when 2 white solids are stirred together they turn into a slushy white solid and the glass jar feels
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Absorbed, endothermic

Explanation:

Based on the heat of reaction, chemical reactions may be classified as endothermic or exothermic.

In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surrounding. As heat is absorbed from the surrounding, the reaction vessel feels cool when touched.

On the other hand, in an exothermic reaction, heat is given out by the system to the surrounding and the reaction vessel feels hot when touched.

Hence the reaction is endothermic and energy is absorbed during the reaction.

Use electron configurations to account for the stability of the lanthanide ions Ce⁴⁺ and Eu²⁺.
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

 The Ce metal has electronic configuration as follows

[Xe] 4f¹5d¹6s²

After losing 4 electrons , it gains noble gas configuration ,. So Ce ⁺⁴ is stable.

Eu  has electronic configuration as follows

[ Xe ] 4 f ⁷6s²

[ Xe ] 4 f ⁷

Its outermost orbit contains 2 electrons so  Eu²⁺ is stable. Its +3 oxidation state is also stable.

Ce⁺²
