Answer:

I don't know about the oil part but "It is important to develop alternative

sources of energy because scientists are unsure of how long they will last"

Because they are nonrenewable resources, it takes hundreds to millions of years for them to be made again naturally. Once we're out, we're out. It would be a huge issue of that happened because Oil, Petroleum, and Natural Gas (all fossil fuels) are needed for heating, gas stoves, etc.

Methane and oxygen react to form carbon dioxide and water. what mass of water is formed if 3.2 g of methane react with 12.8 g of
inn [45]
<span>7.2 g of water.
       
This is a simple matter of adding up the masses of the initial reactants and determining the mass of the results. You started with 3.2 g of methane and 12.8 g of oxygen. So the total mass you start with is 3.2 + 12.8 = 16.0 grams. The reaction results in water and carbon dioxide. The mass of the carbon dioxide is 8.8 g, so the mass of the water will be 16.0 - 8.8 = 7.2 g.</span>

Nimfa-mama [501]
Use the Equation of Clapeyron:

\frac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}\\&#10;\\&#10;\frac{0.5V_1}{235}=\frac{1.2*48}{320}\\&#10;\\&#10;320*0.5V_1=235*1.2*48\\&#10;\\&#10;V_1=\frac{235*1.2*48}{320*0.5}=84.5 liters
