Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A miscible solution is defined as the one in which two or more than two components are soluble with each other.

So, when hexane is added to heptane then both of them will mix with each other and hence they are miscible. This mixing will lead to formation of more number of ions into the solution as a result, more will be the disorder present in the solution.

As entropy is the degree of randomness present.

Hence, we can conclude that a solution of hexane and heptane will lead to an increase in entropy.

What information is provided by absolute dating that cannot be provided by relative dating
kiruha [24]
Relative dating is the process of determining whether an object or event is older or younger than other objects or events. Absolute dating is d<span>etermining the age of an event or object in years. From absolute dating, the real age of the object is obtained which is not present for relative dating. Hope this helps.</span>

What volume of chlorine gas measured at StP will be liberated by a current of 2.5 A flowing for a period of 1.8 hours through an
Oliga [24]

The volume of chlorine gas measured at STP will be liberated by a current of 2.5  A flowing for a period of 1.8 hours through an aqueous solution of AgCl is 1.88 litre.

<h3>What is Faraday's law ?</h3>

According to Faraday's Law , During Electrolysis , The amount of substance liberated at the cathode or anode is directly proportional to the electricity that is passed through the cell.

The reaction taking place at anode is:

2Cl → Cl₂ +2e −

The total charge is calculated as

Q=I×t= 2.5×1.8×60×60 coulomb

Q = 16200 coulomb

The amount of chlorine liberated by passing 16200 coulomb of electric charge

= 16200/(2*96500)

= 0.084 mole

Volume of Cl₂ at STP is

​1 mole at STP has 22.4 L of Gas

0.084 mole of Cl₂ at STP will be equal to 22.4 *0.084 = 1.88 litre of Cl₂

What is the MOST important advantage of using ethanol as a fuel
wolverine [178]

Answer:

The correct answer is - A. Ethanol reduces air pollution.

Explanation:

Ethanol is believed to be better fuel for the environment than other petroleum fuels. Ethanol emits lower carbon dioxide as it is clean smokeless fuel, and produces less or the same oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons.

It is produced by the process of fermentation of molasses by yeast. Mixing it with the other fuels is found to be CO2 reduces by 30% of emissions to the atmosphere.
