Asphalt is a biproduct of making gasoline, diesel, kerosene, jet fuel, all from crude oil pumped from the ground. Asphalt is the garbage or waste that comes out the bottom of the process of distilling those products. They heat the thick oily-sooty gunky asphalt and mix it with rock or sand and make roads out of it. So the compound would be the long hydrocarbon chains.

Answer:

a saturated hydrocarbon that has more than 35 carbons in its chain

Explanation: Alkanes with a chain length of approximately 35 or more carbon atoms are found in bitumen (asphalt), used (for example) in road surfacing. However, the higher alkanes have little value and are usually split into lower alkanes by cracking.

When a person in the hospital is given fluids intravenously, the fluid is typically a saline (salt) solution with about the same

Sati [7]

Answer:

Swelling of the red blood cells occurs.

Explanation:

Distilled water makes the blood hypotonic ,. that is a less concentrated solution, to the body tissues including the red blood cells.
Therefore the water will enter the red blood cells and may cause them to lyse or swell.
Additionally , water will enter the tissue spaces and cause sweling.
But in the case of a hypertonic solution , ( a salt or saline solution ) , This swelling does not happen because the concentration of the saline will be equal or more than the blood. 
Thus the water will flow only from the blood to the solution. This will not cause swelling.
But too much of salt is also not recommended.

Find the number of grams 4.00 moles of CU(CN)2

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

462g

Explanation:

First, let us calculate the molar mass of Cu(CN)2. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of Cu(CN)2 = 63.5 + 2(12+14) = 63.5 + 2(26) = 63.5 + 52 = 115.5g/mol

Number of mole of Cu(CN)2 given from the question = 4moles

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of Cu(CN)2 = 4 x 115.5

Mass of Cu(CN)2 = 462g
