An empty fuel tank can still contain ________ and therefore can be even more dangerous than one full of liquid fuel.

Chemistry
2 answers:
Serggg [28]3 years ago

Answer:

Fumes / vapors.

Explanation:

An empty tank appears to be non dangerous as it has no liquid fuel. However even if tank is empty there may be some drops of left over liquid fuel.

These drops make the container filled with dangerous vapors that are more prone to catch fire as compared to gasoline.

Even a small spark may cause a severe explosion.

Answer:

An empty fuel tank can still contain "fumes"

Explanation:

Even if there is not enough liquid fuel, whatever is left in the tank creates fumes, which is more combustible than liquid gas.

Silicon carbide, SiC, is commonly known as carborundum. This hard substance, which is used commercially as an abrasive, is made
mrs_skeptik [129]

Mass of SiC = 2 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

SiO₂(s) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g)

3.00 g of SiO₂

4.50 g of C

Required

mass of SiC

Solution

mol SiO₂ (MW=60,08 g/mol) :

= 3 g : 60.08 g/mol

= 0.0499

mol C(Ar = 12 g/mol) :

= 4.5 g : 12 g/mol

= 0.375

mol : coefficient of reactants =

SiO₂ : 0.0499/1 = 0.0499

C : 0.375/3 = 0.125

SiO₂ as a limiting reactant(smaller ratio)

Mol SiC based on mol SiO₂ = 0.0499

Mass SiC :

= mol x MW

= 0.0499 x 40,11 g/mol

= 2 g

Gas Law- please help!!!
jekas [21]

The pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.

<h3>What is partial pressure?</h3>

The pressure exerted by the individual gas is known as partial pressure.

The partial pressure is given as

\rm P_{Total} = P_1 + P_2 + ...

In a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen, 40.0% of the gas pressure is exerted by oxygen.

If the total pressure is 115 mmHg.

The total pressure in atm will be

P = 115 mmHg

P = 0.15132 atm

We have

\rm P_T \ \  \  = P_{O_2} + P_{CO_2}\\\\0.15132 \ \  = 0.4 \times 0.15132 +P_{CO_2}\\\\ P_{CO_2} = 0.09079\ atm

Then the pressure of the carbon dioxide will be 0.09079 atm.

More about the partial pressure link is given below.

Compare and contrast reflecting and refracting telescopes. *
Alinara [238K]
A refracting telescope uses convex lenses to gather a large amount of light and focus it onto a small area while a reflecting telescope the mirror instead of an objective lens they are also similar because like the lenses in a refracting telescope the mirror in a reflecting telescope focuses a large amount of light onto a small area.

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with italian dressing. the italian dressing contains 13% vinegar. the chef wants to make 150 mi
charle [14.2K]
To determine the volume of both concentration of vinegar, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknowns. 

For the first equation, we do a mass balance:

mass of 100% vinegar + mass of 13% vinegar = mass of 42% vinegar

Assuming they have the same densities, then we can write this equation in terms of volume.

V(100%) + V(13%) = V(42%)
   we let x = V(100%)
             y = V(13%)

x + y = 150

For the second equation, we do a component balance:

1.00x + .13y = 150(.42)
x + .13y = 63

The two equations are
x + y = 150
x + .13y = 63

Solving for x and y,
x = 50
y = 100

Therefore, you need to mix 50 mL of the 100% vinegar and 100 mL of the 13% vinegar.

Draw the structure of the compound identified by the following simulated 1H and 13C NMR spectra. The molecular formula of the co
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:  4-allylanisole

Explanation: The doublets behind the 7 ppm belongs to the

para-substituted benzene ring. The three single-proton multi-plets around 5−6 ppm predicts that there has to be a single subsituted alkene group

A single plus a doublet around 3-4 ppm belongs to CH3 and CH2 Groups as they could be attached to the subsituted alkene group.

Moreover the interpretation of the NMR  that there is no peak with a higher intensity for >180 ppm represents an absence of Carbonyl group.

The Predicted Number is attached from a chemical database along with their peaks information
