Answer:- The compass needle turns when the switch is closed as there is no magnetic field.

Explanations:- The compass needle is wrapped in a coil which is connected to a battery and switch. If the switch is on then a magnetic field is generated in the coil that stops the moment of the compass needle.

When the switch is off then no magnetic field is generated in the coil and the compass needle is free to turn.

Acetylene gas (C2H2) burns completely in the presence of oxygen gas (O2) to yield carbon dioxide
Luda [366]

A. The balanced equation for the reaction is

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

B. The volume of the oxygen gas required to burn 0.700 L of acetylene gas is 1.75 L

C. The volume of carbon dioxide gas produced is 1.4 L

D. The volume of water vapor produced is 0.7 L

<h3>A. Balanced equation </h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between acetylene gas (C₂H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂) is given below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

<h3>B. How to determine the volume of oxygen </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Since the reaction occurred at standard temperature and pressure, we can thus say that:

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted with 5 L O₂.

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react with = (0.7 × 5) / 2 = 1.75 L of O₂

Thus, 1.75 L of O₂ is needed for the reaction

<h3>C. How to determine the volume of carbon dioxide </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 4 L of CO₂

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will react to produce = (0.7 × 4) / 2 = 1.4 L of CO₂

Thus, 1.4 L of CO₂ were produced

<h3>D. How to determine the volume of water. </h3>

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ —> 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 L of C₂H₂ reacted to produce 2 L of H₂O

Therefore,

0.7 L of C₂H₂ will also react to produce 0.7 L of H₂O

Thus, 0.7 L of H₂O was produced
