Answer:

Methane

Explanation:

If you lived in Alaska, the natural gas that you would be able to keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter would be methane. The melting point of methane is -183ºC, while the boiling point is -164ºC. These temperatures are much lower than the average temperatures of Alaska (the lowest temperature ever recorded in Anchorage was −38.9 °C).

Answer:

Methane

Explanation:

The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.

The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.

Methane having  a boling point  of  -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.

Naily [24]

Answer:

D) He did not multiply the chlorine and oxygen atoms by the coefficient 4.

Explanation:

The coefficient 4 at the beginning of the chemical formula indicates that there are four Ca(ClO3)2 molecules. Think of this as Ca(ClO3)2 × 4. This means that he had to multiply the number of atoms for each element by 4 as well, so he should've ended up with 4 total calcium atoms (which is correct), 8 total chlorine atoms, and and 24 total oxygen atoms. He did not get all these answers because he didn't multiply the chlorine and oxygen atoms by the coefficient 4.
