5 0

Answer;

-Prohibited from use by OSHA

Explanation;

-Carbon tetrachloride is a clear and colorless liquid with an odor similar to that of chloroform.It is employed as a chemical reagent for a number of purposes, as a raw material in chemical manufacture and is, used very widely as a reagent to extinguish fires.

-It volatizes very easily, is a non-conductor of electricity and, as noted above, freezes at very low temperatures.

-It is effective, due to the blanketing effect of its vaporized fumes, on many Class B or volatile, flammable liquid fires and because it will mix with certain volatile, flammable liquids and form a non-burning combination.

If you set up an experiment with two different independent variables, then the results would be_____.
MariettaO [177]

Answer: A) Inconclusive; you would not know which of the two variables caused the change.

Explanation:

When you set up an experiment, you must make sure that you control the variables such that only one independent variable changes at a time, while all the remainder conditions (the other independent variables) are controlled (fixed).

By observing (measuring) the dependent variable, while only one independent variable changes you can understandhow such independent variable explains (determines) the dependent variable, leading to a conclusion.

Conversely, if two or more independent variables change at a time, then there is no way that you can tell how the output (dependent variable) is related with one or other of the changes of the indipendent variables. You wolud not be able to discriminate (distinguish) the effect of one or other variable, making the experiment inconclusive

Crime scene investigators keep a wide variety of compounds on hand to help with identifying unknown substances they find in the
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Option d: C₈H₉NO₂ = acetaminophen, analgesic

Explanation:

% composition of compound is:

63.57 g of C

6 g of H

9.267 g of N

21.17 g of O

First of all we divide each by the molar mass of the element

63.57 g / 12 gmol = 5.29 mol of C

6 g of H / 1 g/mol = 6 mol H

9.267 g of N / 14 g/mol =  0.662 mol of N

21.17 g of O / 16 g/mol = 1.32 mol of O

We divide each by the lowest value, in this case 0.662

5.29 / 0.662 = 8

6 / 0.662 = 9

0.662 / 0.662 = 1

1.32 / 0.662 = 2

Molecular formula of the compound is C₈H₉NO₂

How many Joules must be removed to condense 150.0g of steam at 100.0 degrees Celsius to water at 100.0 degrees celcius
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

339kJ

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of steam  = 150g  = 0.15kg

Initial temperature of steam  = 100°C

Final temperature of water  = 100°C  

Unknown:

Quantity of heat that must be removed to condense the steam = ?

Solution:

The heat involved here is a latent heat because there is no change temperature. The process is just a phase change.

  H  = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of vaporization  = 2,260 kJ/kg

Insert the parameters and solve;

 H = 0.15kg x 2,260 kJ/kg

 H  = 339kJ
