Carbon monoxide blocks oxygen in the blood. Hence, option A is correct.
<h3>What is combustion?</h3>
Combustion is a chemical process or a reaction between Fuel (Hydrocarbon) and Oxygen.
During incomplete combustion part of the carbon is not completely oxidized producing carbon monoxide (CO). Incomplete combustion uses fuel inefficiently and carbon monoxide is released.
Carbon monoxide gas diffuses rapidly across the pulmonary capillary membrane, binding to haemoglobin with an affinity 200 times that of oxygen to form carboxyhemoglobin. By displacing oxygen, CO decreases the oxygen-carrying capacity and oxygen delivery to tissues, causing marked cellular hypoxia and acidosis.
Hence, option A is correct.

The acid and alkali that would react to make sodium sulfate is
alkali= sodium hydroxide
acid = sulphuric acid
<u><em>explanation</em></u>
Acid react react with alkali to form salt and water.
For sodium sulfate salt to be formed a sulfate acid is required to react with a hydroxide of sodium .
therefore Sodium hydroxide (alkali) react with sulphuric acid (an acid) to form sodium sulfate (salt) and water.
Differences between a mixture and a compound are;
A mixture can be separated by physical means such as decantantion and filtration whereas a compound can only be separated by chemical means like smelting
The proportion of elements in a mixture varies while the proportion of elements in a compound is constant
Elements retain their characteristics in a mixture while in a compound, elements never retain their characteristics
Answer: 121.7558 amu
Explanation:
Average atomic mass of the unknown element =
(Mass of isotope 1 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 1) + ( Mass of Isotope 2 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 2)
(120.9 x 0.5721) + (122.9 x 0.4279) = 69.16689 + 52.58891
Average mass of the unknown element = 121.7558 amu
