A burning splint will burn more vigorously in pure oxygen than in air because ________. a burning splint will burn more vigorous

ly in pure oxygen than in air because ________. nitrogen is a product of combustion and the system reaches equilibrium at a lower temperature oxygen is a catalyst for combustion oxygen is a reactant in combustion and concentration of oxygen is higher in pure oxygen than is in air oxygen is a product of combustion nitrogen is a reactant in combustion and its low concentration in pure oxygen catalyzes the combustion

A burning splint will burn more vigorously in pure oxygen than in air because <span>oxygen is a reactant in combustion and concentration of oxygen is higher in pure oxygen than is in air.
Oxygen concentration in air is approximately 20%, the rest of are nitrogen, carbon dioxide and other gases. Oxygen is oxidazing reactant, that means oxygen give electrons in chemical reactions.

<span>A burning splint will burn more vigorously in pure oxygen than in air because  </span><u>oxygen is a reactant in combustion and concentration of oxygen is higher in pure oxygen than is in air</u>.

Explanation:
                    As splints a basically made up of wood and is used in testing oxidizing gases like oxygen

                                     C  +  O₂  →  CO₂  

Also we know that pure oxygen contains 100% oxygen, while that %age of oxygen in air is only 20.95 %. Therefore, combustion reaction will be much faster in pure oxygen due to high concentration of oxygen.

What types of radiation cause the parent isotope to change into a different element?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Beta decay is most common in elements with a high neutron to proton ratio. Gamma decay follows the form: In gamma emission, neither the atomic number or the mass number is changed. A high energy gamma ray is given off when the parent isotope falls into a lower energy state.

What is the specific heat of a substance if 1560 cal are required to raise the temperature of a 312-g sample by 15°C?
Oksanka [162]
The specific heat capacity  the substance is calculated  using  the below formula

Q(heat) = Mc delta T
Q =1560  cal
m(mass) 312 g
delta T (change in temperature ) = 15 c
C= specific heat capacity=?

by making c the subject of the formula 
c=Q/m delta T
= 1560  cal/ 312g x 15 c = 0.33 cal/g/c (answer B)
