C = 12
O2 = 16*2= 32
CO2 = (12)+(16*2) = 44

32/44*100 = 72.73%

Gasoline and motor oil are chemically similar. They are both mixtures of nonpolar hydrocarbons

Softa [21]

Answer:

motor oil

Explanation:

According to Oxford dictionary, viscosity refers to ''a quantity expressing the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.''

The higher the molecular weight of a substance, the greater its viscosity. This is because, the long chains in the viscous substance become entangled thereby increasing the internal friction in the liquid.

Motor oil is a heavier hydrocarbon than gasoline hence it is more viscous than gasoline.

Ethylene produced by fermentation has a specific gravity of 0.787 at 25 degree Celsius. What is the volume of 125g of ethanol at

WITCHER [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific gravity is given by the formula:

$\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}$

We are given:

Density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Specific gravity of ethanol = 0.787

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.787=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{0.997g/mL}\\\\\text{Density of a substance}=(0.787\times 0.997g/mL)=0.784g/mL$

Density is defined as the ratio of mass and volume of a substance.

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$ ......(1)

Given values:

Mass of ethanol = 125 g

Density of ethanol = 0.784 g/mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Volume of ethanol}=\frac{125g}{0.784g/mL}=159.44mL$

Hence, the volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL
