Answer:-

Electrocautery Device

Explanation:-

The heat and light produced like a discharge due to a low impedence connection is called arc flash. They can cause substantial damage including fire and injury.

Electrocauterization or electric surgery is the process of destroying tissue with electricity. In this process the electrode is held away from the tissue, so that when the air gap between the electrode and the tissue is ionized leading to an electric arc discharge.

Here a low impedence is used to since a return electrode burn will occur if the heat produced, over time, is not safely dissipated by the size or conductivity of the patient return electrode.

Hence an arc flash can result from a Electrocautery Device if proper precautions are not taken.

What is the molality of a solution containing 3. 0 moles of nacl and 100. 0 moles of water?
Mama L [17]

The molality of a solution containing 3. 0 moles of NaCl and 100. 0 moles of water is 30 mol/kg.

The number of moles of solute in a solution equal to 1 kg or 1000 g of solvent is referred to as its molality. Mole per kilogram of solvent is the SI unit for molality.

Given:

3.0 moles of NaCl in 100 moles of water.

To find:

The molality of the solution

The moles of solute (NaCl) = 3.0 moles

The mass of solvent (water) = 100 moles (0.1 kg/mol)

Molality of a solution = Number of Moles of solute/ Mass of solvent(kg)

                                 = 3.0 moles/0.1 kg/mol

                                 = 30 mol/kg

Why is a molecule of CO2 nonpolar even though the bonds between the carbon atom and the oxygen atoms are polar?
schepotkina [342]
The correct answer is option 1. Carbon dioxide is nonpolar because the shape of the molecule  is symmetrical. It is a linear molecule where the oxygen atoms are symmetrical on each end. CO2 molecule do not have a region of unequal sharing.

What happens to the partial pressure of oxygen in a sample of air if the temperature is increased?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Air is mainly composed of N2  (78%), O2 (21%) and other trace gases. Now, the total pressure of air is the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gases. The partial pressure of each gas, for example say O2, can be expressed as:

p(O2) = mole fraction of O2 * P(total, air)  ----(1)

Thus, the partial pressure is directly proportional to the total pressure. If we consider a sealed container then, as the temperature of air increases so will its pressure. Based on equation (1) an increase in the pressure of air should also increase the partial pressure of oxygen.
