Answer: decomposition

Explanation:

1 . Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide ans water along with liberation of large amount of energy.

2. Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which a single reactant gives two or more than two products.

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

3. Single replacement is a type of chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its slat solution.

4. Synthesis is a type of chemical reaction in which two or more than two reactants combine together to give a single product.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is decomposition reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given options:

<u>Option 1:</u> Combustion

Combustion reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water molecule.

\text{Hydrocarbon}+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

<u>Option 2:</u> Decomposition

Decomposition reaction is defined as the reaction in which a single large substance breaks down into two or more smaller substances.

AB\rightarrow A+B

<u>Option 3:</u> Single replacement

Single replacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The reactivity of metal is determined by a series known as reactivity series. The metals lying above in the series are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

Metal A is more reactive than metal B.

<u>Option 4:</u> Synthesis

Synthesis reaction is defined as the reaction in which smaller substances combine in their elemental state to form a larger substance.

A+B\rightarrow AB

Hence, the correct answer is decomposition reaction.

_____ might be able to detect tumors based on its use of X-rays and ability to produce cross-sectional images of the brain.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: CAT (computerized axial tomography) scan

Explanation:

Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT) scan is an X-ray examination in which a computer generates images showing cross-section views of a patient's internal parts (brain, blood vessels and etc.)

CAT scan can identify normality and detect abnormalities (such as tumor and degenerated cells) in the internal organs and structures and hence, this information are used to guide other medical processes.

The main reason that cs2 has a higher boiling point than co2 is that cs2
OlgaM077 [116]

Explanation:

Inspite of having similar intermolecular forces, CS2 has a higher boiling point than CO2, since it has a greater molar mass. The potential energy of molecules reduces until a certain level as they get closer to each other. Although the polarity of both CO2 and CS2 are cancelled because of their linear structure.

f the Ksp for HgBr2 is 2.8×10−14, and the mercury ion concentration in solution is 0.085 M, what does the bromide concentration
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

0.057 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Solubility product constant (Ksp) for HgBr₂: 2.8 × 10⁻⁴

Concentration of mercury (II) ion: 0.085 M

Step 2: Write the reaction for the solution of HgBr₂

HgBr₂(s) ⇄ Hg²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻

Step 3: Calculate the bromide concentration needed for a precipitate to occur

The Ksp is:

Ksp = 2.8 × 10⁻⁴ = [Hg²⁺] × [Br⁻]²

[Br⁻] = √(2.8 × 10⁻⁴/0.085) = 0.057 M
