Answer:

                    No the substance is not water.

Explanation:

                   The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of water is as follow;

                                           2 H₂O = 2 H₂ + O₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of H₂O;</u>

               Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

               Moles  =  5.0 g / 18.01 g/mol

               Moles  =  0.277 moles of H₂O

Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of O₂ and H₂ produced by 0.277 moles of H₂O:</u>

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  1 mole of O₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 1 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.138 moles of O₂

Also,

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  2 mole of H₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of H₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 2 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.227 moles of H₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of O₂ and H₂ as;</u>

For O₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.138 mol × 31.99 g/mol

                 Mass  =  4.44 g of O₂

For H₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.227 mol × 2.01 g/mol

                 Mass  =  0.559 g of H₂

Conclusion:

                   From conclusion it is proved that the amount of H₂ produced by decomposition of 5 g of water should be 0.559 g while in statement it is less i.e. 0.290 g.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Natural gas is colorless and odorless, and explosive, so a sulfur-smell (similar to rotten eggs) is usually added for early detection of leaks. ... Natural gas is a fossil fuel. Natural gas is a non-renewable hydrocarbon used as a source of energy for heating, cooking, and electricity generation.

What would be the volume in millilitres of a blood sample of 2.15 microliters (ul)?​
Zanzabum

2.15 x 10⁻³mL

Explanation:

Given parameter:

    Volume of blood sample in uL = 2.15uL

Conversion           uL → mL

   micro- and milli-  are both prefixes of sub-units.

liter is a unit of volume of a substance.

       micro - is 10⁻⁶

       milli- is of the order 10⁻³

The problem is converting from micro to milli:

     if we multiply  10⁻⁶ by 10³ we would have our milli;

  1000uL = 1mL

  2.15uL :   2.15uL x \frac{1mL}{1000uL} = 2.15 x 10⁻³mL
