A semiconductor's resistivity decreases with the increase in temperature.
More is the heat imparted to  it, it will behave more as an insulator.

Which of the following gases experience the greatest degree of deviation from ideal behavior under high pressures and low temper
xz_007 [3.2K]

A) CH4

In general, methane reactions are difficult to control. Partial oxidation to methanol, for example, is a rather difficult reaction because the chemical reactions that occur continue to form carbon dioxide and water even though the amount of oxygen available is insufficient.

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon in the form of gas with the chemical formula CH4. Pure methane does not smell, but if used for commercial purposes, a bit of sulfur is usually added to detect leaks that might occur.

Methane is a greenhouse gas. Methane is used in chemical industrial processes and can be transported as frozen liquids (liquefied natural gas, or LNG).

Methane is a major component of natural gas, around 87% of volume.

Methane is not toxic, but is highly flammable and can cause explosions when mixed with air.

As the volume of a gas increases, what happens to the pressure of the gas?
Elena L [17]
Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle's law.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. How long will it take for 112. 5 g of a 120. 0-g sample to decay radioactively? 5,730
vichka [17]

The time taken by Carbon-14 to decay radioactively from 120g to 112.5g is 22,920 years.

<h3>How do we calculate the total time of decay?</h3>

Time required for the whole radioactive decay of any substance will be calculated by using the below link:

T = (n)(t), where

  • t = half life time = 5730 years
  • n = number of half life required for the decay

Initial mass of Carbon-14 = 120g

Final mass of Carbon-14 = 112.5g

Left mass = 120 - 112 = 7.5g

Number of required half life for this will be:

  • 1: 120 → 60
  • 2: 60 → 30
  • 3: 30 → 15
  • 4: 15 → 7.5

4 half lives are required, now on putting values we get

T = (4)(5730) = 22,920 years

Hence required time for the decay is 22,920 years.
