The major drawback of fossil fuels is that they warm the planet i.e. they cause global warming.

The reaction typically gives off heat and light as well. The general equation for a complete combustion reaction is:

                                  Fuel + O2 → CO2 + H2O + ENERGY

<h3>Disadvantages of Fossil fuels</h3>

The term "fossil fuels" refers to flammable organic geologic formations, including dead organic matter that has been buried hundreds of feet beneath sediment.

  • Fossil fuel emissions include various oxides, such as carbon, nitrogen, and sulfate, which cause acid rain and harm the soil's fertility and water quality.
  • Both coal and petroleum burning discharge a significant amount of pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to pollution levels.
  • Gases like carbon dioxide are released through the burning of fossil fuels, which aids in climate change.

Calculate the number of C atoms in 0.190 mole C6H14O.<br> can anyone help me on this one?
likoan [24]
In 0.190 mole of C6H14O, there is 0.190*6 (number of C in one molecule) = 1.140 mole of C atoms. The total number of C atoms = 1.14 * 6*10^{23} (atoms of C in one mole) = 6.84*10^{23} atoms.

What is the mass of substance that exactly fills a 247.2 mL container? The density of the substance is 0.81 g/mL. Give the answe
matrenka [14]

Answer:

<h2>mass = 200.23 g</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

Since we are finding the mass

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

Density = 0.81 g/mL

volume = 247.2 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the mass

mass = 0.81 × 247.2

= 200.232

We have the final answer as

<h3>mass = 200.23 g to 2 decimal places</h3>

Hope this helps you

An acid with the general formula RCOOH is used to make a 0.10 M solution in water. The pH of this acid solution is measured as 3
Sati [7]

Answer:

0.159 \%

Explanation:

The acid will dissociate according to the reaction shown below:-

RCOOH + H_2O\rightleftharpoons RCOO^- + H_3O^+

Given that, pH=3.8

The concentration of can be determined from the expression fo pH as:-

pH = - log [H^+]

3.8  = - log [H^+]

[H^+] = 1.59\times 10^{-4}\ M

The initial concentration of RCOOH was 0.10 M, then the percent dissociation was- calculated as shown below:-

\% \ dissociation=\frac{1.59\times 10^{-4}}{0.10}\times 100=0.159\ \%
