Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation is the thermal insulation material that is no longer used because of formaldehyde gas emission

Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation is mixture of urea formaldehyde resin, foaming acid agent, and a propellant used in the 1970s for insulating purposes.

It was specifically designed to insulate the areas of the building that were hard to access. Unlike regular process, it was sprayed into the walls by using holes.

It is no longer used because it caused a raise in the formaldehyde gas in the residence. This gas caused irritations to the people living in the building. Residents started to report health issues like respiratory problems, and eyes, nose, throat irritation.

What are “condensation nuclei”?

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Cloud condensation nuclei or CCNs are small particles typically 0.2 µm, or 1/100 the size of a cloud droplet on which water vapor condenses. Water requires a non-gaseous surface to make the transition from a vapour to a liquid; this process is called condensation.

How many grams of solid nickel will be plated if an aqueous nickel(II) sulfate solution is electroplated over 10.5 min with a co

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

613 mg

Explanation:

$Ni^{2+} + 2e \rightarrow Ni(s)$

Number of fargday's $=\frac{It}{96500}$

Here, I = 9.20 A

t = 10.5 min

= 10.5 x 60 seconds

So, $\frac{It}{96500}$

$=\frac{3.20 \times 10.5 \times 60}{96500}$

= 0.0208 F

Here, 2e, 2F

2F = 1 mol of Ni

$0.0208 \ F = \frac{0.0208}{2} = 0.0104 \ mol \ Ni$

1 mol = 59 gm of Ni

0.0104 mol = 59 x0.0104 gm Ni

= 0.613 gm Ni

= (0.613 x 1000 ) mg of Ni

= 613 mg of Ni

Draw a bond-line structure for CH3CH2O(CH2)2CH(CH3)2.<br><br> Include Lone Pairs in your answer.

mash [69]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

A bond line structure refers to any structure of a covalent molecule wherein the covalent bonds present in the molecule are represented with a single line for each level of bond order.

The bond-line structure of CH3CH2O(CH2)2CH(CH3)2 has been shown in the image attached. We know that oxygen has a lone pair of electrons and this has been clearly shown also in the image attached.
