It will cover up all oxygen from the fire. And sand has no natural flammability because it is simply a crushed up mineral, so it can not make the fire any bigger.

A solution was prepared by mixing 50.0 g
frez [133]

Answer:

4.78 %.

Explanation:

<em>mass percent is the ratio of the mass of the solute to the mass of the solution multiplied by 100.</em>

<em></em>

<em>mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100.</em>

<em></em>

mass of MgSO₄ = 50.0 g,

mass of water = d.V = (0.997 g/mL)(1000.0 mL) = 997.0 g.

mass of the solution = mass of water + mass of MgSO₄ = 997.0 g + 50.0 g = 1047.0 g.

<em>∴ mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100</em> = (50.0 g/1047.0 g) x 100 = <em>4.776 % ≅ 4.78 %.</em>

seropon [69]

Answer:

B. an air-conditioning system.

Explanation:

Refrigeration is defined as a process of cooling a system to lower temperature below the surrounding temperature while the removed heat is rejected at higher temperatures.

Heat pumps use the heat output of the refrigeration process, which may also be designed to be reversible, but are otherwise similar to air conditioning units.

Answer:

Harmony is correct, because Mendeleev’s model made predictions that came true.

Explanation:

Mendeleev published periodic table.

Mendeleev also arranged the elements known at the time in order of relative atomic mass, but he did some other things that made his table much more successful.

Our answer is : Harmony is correct, because Mendeleev’s model made predictions that came true.
