Answer:
This has some interesting History in it.
Peat moss was once pounded into a sort of brick; sometimes with a little coal, these bricks were put to dry, and used for fuel.
The “Historical” part is in the name. I won’t go into why, ‘cause I type so slow and it is “extra”, but the peat, or coal, being TRULY organic, (that is made from plants) and burned as fuel is called “carbonixation”.
Explanation: Sort of a “Carbon + Oxidation”; many things in Chemistry have strange names that seem at first to make no sense; like “essence of Hartshorn”, is Ammonia (or ammonium hydroxide). A Hart is/was a type of deer in England and that area, and amines in the horn, when distilled, would yield Ammonia, “The Essence of Hartshorn”. Even the term “aromatic” has a long History, as do many compounds and nomenclature.
I hope that will do it.
Explanation:
Pressure of a gas is the combined force with which the molecules bombard a unit area of the wall of the container.
1 atm = 760mmHg
= 760torr
= 101325Pa
= 101325Nm⁻²
1mmHg = 1torr
1Pa = 1Nm⁻²
101.325 kPa and 101,325 Pa are the same
1000Pa = 1kPa
101,325 Pa and 1 atm
1atm and 101.325 kPa
Answer:
London dispersion forces
Explanation:
Intermolecular forces are the forces that facilitate interaction between solute and solvent molecules and thereby impact their solubility. These forces are broadly classified into four types arranged below from the strongest to the weakest:
1) Ionic > 2) Hydrogen bonding >3) Dipole-dipole >4) London dispersion
The hydrocarbons n-pentane
and n--hexane
are non-polar molecules. Therefore the only type of interaction that exists between them when forming a homogeneous solution are the weak london dispersion forces.
