Lower flammable limit means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.

What is hazardous atmosphere?

It is an atmosphere that may expose employees to risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue, injury, or acute illness from one or more of following causes

Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10 percent of lower flammable limit (LFL)
Airborne combustible dust at concentration that meets or exceeds its LFL

What is lower flammable limit?

It means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
The LFL is usually expressed as percent by volume of material in air (or other oxidant)
Atmospheres with concentration of flammable vapors at or above 10 percent of lower explosive limit (LEL) are considered hazardous when located in confined spaces.
However, atmospheres with flammable vapors below 10 percent of LEL are not necessarily safe. Such atmospheres are too lean to burn

When 20 milliliters of 1.0m hcl is diluted to a total volume of 60 milliliters, the concentration of the resulting solution is?

Ksenya-84 [330]

In preparing diluted solutions from concentrated solutions we can use the following formula
c1v1 = c2v2
c1 and v1 are the concentration and volume of the concentrated solution respectively
c2 and v2 are the concentrations and volume of the diluted solution respectively
Substituting these values ,
20 mL x 1.0 M = C x 60 mL
C = 0.33 M
The concentration of the resulting diluted solutions is 0.33 M

You are on an alien planet where the names for substances and the units of measures are very unfamiliar. Nonetheless, you obtain

Margarita [4]

Answer: 12

Explanation.

This problem was recently posted and deals with the conversion of units,so I give the same answer.

You need to convert the 9 quibs of skvarnick to sleps, to determine how many sleps you have.

The conversion of units is easily undertaken once you build your conversion factors.

Conversion factors are ratios (fractions) equivalent to one, which permits use the identity property of the multiplication to change one unit to a different equivalent one.

Remember that the identity property of multiplication states that any amount multiplied by 1 remains unchanged, i.e.

$a.1=a$

Then, build your conversion factor from the definitions given:

12 sleps is equal to 9 quibs.

12 sleps = 9 quibs

in virtue of the division property of equality, you can divide both sides by 12 sleps and get:

1 = 12 sleps / 9 quibs ← conversion factor

Now you can multiply the amount 9 quibs by the conversion factor, which is equal to 1, to find the equivalent amount of sleps:

identity property: 9 quibs = 9 quibs × 1

substitution property: 9 quibs = 9 quibs × 12 sleps/ 9 quibs

You can see that the unit quibs appear in the numerator and the denominator so it cancels out, and the result will be in sleps.

So, all you have to do now is the operations with the numbers:

9 quibs = (9 × 12 / 9) sleps = 12 sleps ← answer
