Coal a is a chemical compound. It is pure carbon. You cannot separate carbon into other molecules without changing its chemical consitution.

Petroleum is a mixture of many chemical compounds, hydrocarbons, plus other elements. Petroleum components contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and some metal traces. The different compounds that consitute the petroleum can be separated by physical media like distillation.

When humans burn fuel or cut down trees, they (increase/decrease) levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Arturiano [62]
When humans burn fuel/cut down tress, they will increase the level of carbon dioxide within the atmosphere. Tress "inhale" the carbon dioxide within the atmosphere and without them, the excess will still linger. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of burning fuel thus, it will increase the levels in the atmosphere.

A cube has sides that are 0.03 m . What is the volume of the cube in liters?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.027 litres

Explanation:

volume of cube = length × base area

volume of cube = 0.03m ×( 0.03m × 0.03m )

volume of cube = 0.03m × ( 0.0009m^2 )

volume of cube = 0.000027m^3

1 cubic metre = 1000 litres

0.000027m^3 = 0.027 litres

Why is zinc not extracted from ZnO through reduction using CO?​
Jet001 [13]
The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of ZnO from Zn is lower than that of CO2 from CO. Therefore, CO cannot reduce ZnO to Zn. Hence, Zn is not extracted from ZnO through reduction using CO

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

17.04%

Explanation:

Actual Value = 173.1

Measured Value = 143.6

Percent error is obtained using the equation;

Percent error = (Measured - Actual) / Actual ]* 100

Percent error = [ (143.6 - 173.1) / 173.1 ] * 100

The absolute value of (Measured - Actual) is taken,

Percent Error = [29.5 / 173.1 ] * 100

Percent Error = 0.1704 * 100 = 17.04%
