Lower flammable limit means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
What is hazardous atmosphere?
It is an atmosphere that may expose employees to risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue, injury, or acute illness from one or more of following causes
- Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10 percent of lower flammable limit (LFL)
- Airborne combustible dust at concentration that meets or exceeds its LFL
What is lower flammable limit?
- It means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
- The LFL is usually expressed as percent by volume of material in air (or other oxidant)
- Atmospheres with concentration of flammable vapors at or above 10 percent of lower explosive limit (LEL) are considered hazardous when located in confined spaces.
- However, atmospheres with flammable vapors below 10 percent of LEL are not necessarily safe. Such atmospheres are too lean to burn

Answer:
• Molecular mass of Iron (III) tetraoxide
[ molar masses: Fe → 56, O → 16 ]
Answer:
It is an amorphous solid and hence also called pseudo solid. So it flows very slowly over thousands of years. It is not visible to the n*ked eye.
E. co and n2Effusion is the process where gas escapes through a hole. Gases with a lower molecular mass effuse more speedy than gases with a higher molecular mass. R<span>elative rates of effusion is related to the molecular mass.
a) M(N</span>₂)/M(O₂) = 28/32 = 0,875
b) M(N₂O)/M(NO₂) = 44/46 = 0,956
c) M(CO)/M(CO₂) = 28/44 = 0,636
d) M(NO₂)/M(N₂O₂) = 44/58= 0,758
e) M(CO)/M(N₂) = 28/28 = 1, <span>CO and N</span>₂ <span>have iexact molecular masses and will effuse at nearly identical rates.</span>
When solid changes it's phase to gas without forming liquid, process is called sublimation.
