Handle of frying pan would be a good use for a nonmetal. A nonmetal is neither a good thermal insulator nor a good electrical conductor. Because it is neither, it can be use as a semiconductor. It does not absorb heat that much that is why it is best in insulating.

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Non-metals are the substance which are electron deficient in nature. They are also brittle and bad conductors of heat and electricity.

Whereas electrical wires, structural components in buildings, and coinage requires good conductors of heat and electricity. Therefore, metals being good conductors of heat and electricity are suitable for them.

Hence, we can conclude that handle of frying pan would be a good use for a non-metal.

The water-gas shift reaction CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) is used industrially to produce hydrogen. The reaction enthalpy is ΔH∘=−4
denis23 [38]

Answer:

To increase the yield of H₂ we would use a low temperature.

For an exothermic reaction such as this, decreasing temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium. Low temperature increases the value of K and the amount of products at equilibrium.

Explanation:

Let´s consider the following reaction:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the response of the system is explained by Le Chatelier's Principle: <em>If a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation (in temperature, pressure, concentration), the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract such perturbation</em>.

In this case, we have an exothermic reaction (ΔH° < 0). We can imagine heat as one of the products. If we decrease the temperature, the system will try to raise it favoring the forward reaction to release heat and, at the same time, increasing the yield of H₂. By having more products, the value of the equilibrium constant K increases.
