Actually, it wasn't really a specific type of bomb, but in fact, it was a mixture of very powerful ingredients.
It was a mixture of ammonium nitrate, fertilizer, nitromethane, and diesel fuel. In fact, it was 4,800 pounds of this mixture jam-packed into a truck and detonated right in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, which was 9 stories tall.

Vapor pressure can be described as: A) the temperature at which bubbles of vapor appear in a liquid. B) the pressure exerted on

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors which are present on the surface of a liquid.

For example, vapor pressure of water at room temperature is 0.0313 atm.

On the other hand, the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals atmospheric pressure is known as boiling point.

For example, boiling point of water at room temperature is $100^{o}C$ .

Thus, we can conclude that vapor pressure can be described as the pressure exerted by a gas above the surface of its liquid.

What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl

fenix001 [56]

M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol

m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol

n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol

n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol

P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5
