During complete combustion carbon and hydrogen combine with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (HO2) during that time it is not completely oxidized producing soot or carbon monoxide

Answer: incomplete supply of oxygen

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a fuel is reacted with excess supply of oxygen to result into complete oxidation of fuel to give carbon dioxide and water.

Example of complete combustion :

C+O_2 \rightarrow CO_2

Incomplete combustion happens when the supply of oxygen is limited and thus fuel can not be completely oxidized , thus forming carbon monoxide.

Example of incomplete combustion :

C+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow CO

If you went to a planet that had the twice the radius as Earth, but the same mass, a 1 kg pineapple would have a weight of
kicyunya [14]

Use the law of universal gravitation, which says the force of gravitation between two bodies of mass <em>m</em>₁ and <em>m</em>₂ a distance <em>r</em> apart is

<em>F</em> = <em>G m</em>₁ <em>m</em>₂ / <em>r</em>²

where <em>G</em> = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg².

The Earth has a radius of about 6371 km = 6.371 x 10⁶ m (large enough for a pineapple on the surface of the earth to have an effective distance from the center of the Earth to be equal to this radius), and a mass of about 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg, so the force of gravitation between the pineapple and the Earth is

<em>F</em> = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (1 kg) (5.97 x 10²⁴ kg) / (6.371 x 10⁶ m)²

<em>F</em> ≈ 9.81 N

Notice that this is roughly equal to the weight of the pineapple on Earth, (1 kg)<em>g</em>, where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, so that [force of gravity] = [weight] on any given planet.

This means that on this new planet with twice the radius of Earth, the pineapple would have a weight of

<em>F</em> = <em>G m</em>₁ <em>m</em>₂ / (2<em>r</em>)² = 1/4 <em>G m</em>₁ <em>m</em>₂ / <em>r</em>²

i.e. 1/4 of the weight on Earth, which would be about 2.45 N.

Lady_Fox [76]
     Your answer would be true. Because if we didn't have those pieces of evidence, we wouldn't know about a lot of the ancient civilizations that we know today without that. Small pieces of evidence like that can help us to determine how they lived, or what they used to do, or even what they ate.
