Polyester is a condensation polymer of dicarboxylic acid and diol. Example : Polethylene terphthalate is polymer of ethylene glycol and tere phthallic acid. When a strong acid like HCl or a strong base like NaOH comes in contact with polyester (like spilled on slacks) it causes hydrolysis of polyester and it get converted back to dicarboxylic and diol(the monomers). the general reaction will be RCOOR' ---> RCOOH + R'OH Thus slacks will get teared.

Addition of 6 m hcl to which substance will not result in gas evolution?
saul85 [17]

There is no gaseous product when NaNO3 reacts with 6M HCl.

We must note that gas evolution is one of the signs that a chemical reaction has taken place. Hence, we must consider the options and look out for an option in which reaction with HCl does not lead to a gaseous product. This is the option that does not lead to evolution of a gas.

Let us consider the reaction; NaNO3(s) + HCl(aq) ---> NaCl(s) + HNO3(aq), there is no gaseous product hence NaNO3 does not result in gas evolution upon addition of 6M HCl.

Missing parts;

stellarik [79]
I believe the scientific notation would be 1.8× 10^1
Scientific notation is a way of expressing numbers that are too big or too small to be conviniently written in decimal form.
For example, a number like 0.0000000005 is written as 5 ×10^10
