Grease is nonpolar. It is made up of lengthy hydrocarbon chains attached to glycerol (triacylglycerols). Because of this property, nonpolar solvents, such as tetrachloroethylene, can get grease out of clothes. This solvent acts by dissolving the grease, thereby removing it from clothes without leaving any residue.

Brut [27]
I think the best answer from the choices listed above is option B. The best graduated cylinder for this case is the glass cylinder. A metal cylinder is not possible because you cannot measure really since metals are not transparent. A plastic cylinder cannot also be used since the substance should be heated for the experiment.

Answer:

14.7838

Explanation:

Given that;

A student uses a solution that contains 16 g of water to conduct an experiment and at the end of an hour ; the amount have decreased by 3.5%

The mathematically illustration for this is given as

= 16 g ×  3.5%

= 16 *\frac{3.5}{100}

= 0.56  

After an hour; the amount have decreased by 16 - 0.56

= 15.44

after 2 hours the water decreased by another 4.25%

i.e  15.44 * \frac{ 4.25}{100}

⇒ 0.6562

after two hours , the amount would have decreased by:

= 15.44 - 0.6562

= 14.7838
