Answer:

This is because the pressure will build so up so much that the can will burst (and explode if there is a naked flame nearby) the gas pressure increases. more of the liquefied propellant turns into a gas.  

This is Boyle's Law. It states pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

Answer:

The gas inside the can and the can’s volume are both constant.

The gas pressure increases with increasing temperature.

The can will burst if the pressure becomes great enough.

The gas law that applies is Gay-Lussac’s law.

How are fireworks made ?
Nadusha1986 [10]
Aerial fireworks are usually manufactured as a shell that is made up of four parts. The container consists of pasted paper. The fuse allows the shell to reach the desired altitude before exploding. A bursting charge made of black powder (like a firecracker) is at the center of the shell.

A gas has a volume of 590 mL at temperature of -55.0 C. What volume will the gas occupy at 30.0 C show your work
DENIUS [597]
Data:
V_{initial} = 590\:mL
T_{initial} = -55.0^0C
converting to Kelvin
TK = TC + 273
TK = -55.0 + 273 → TK = 218.0 → T_{initial} = 218.0\:K
V_{final} = ? (in\:milliliters)
T_{final} = 30.0^0C
TK = TC + 273
TK = 30.0 + 273 → TK = 303.0 → T_{final} = 303.0\:K

By the first Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac, we have: 
\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }

Solving:
\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }
\frac{ 590 }{ 218.0 } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ 303.0 }
Product of extremes equals product of means:
218.0* V_{f} = 590*303.0
218.0 V_{f} = 178770
V_{f} = \frac{178770}{218.0}
\boxed{\boxed{V_{f} \approx 820.04\:mL}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

The fluorocarbon compound c2cl3f3 has a normal boiling point of 47.6°c. the specific heats of c2cl3f3(l) and c2cl3f3(g) are 0.91
myrzilka [38]
<span>To raise the liquid temperature to the point of boiling take 1231.776 joules of energy. To convert to a gas takes 5320.645 joules. To raise to 108 degrees Celsius takes 1456.848 joules. Total amount of energy needed (as heat) equals 8009.269 joules or 8.009 kj.</span>

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal
wel
<span>Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives</span>
