It's believed by many that a good way to vandalize a car is to pour sugar (sucrose) in its gas tank. the sugar is believed to di

ssolve in the gasoline, enter the gas lines and then "caramelize" into a gunky texture when combusted. if you wanted to test this theory casually, without jeopardizing anyone's car, which of the solvents used in the experiment would be the best to use?

Answer is: in this experiment it is best to use some liquid alkanes (for example hexane), because gasoline<span> consists of hydrocarbons with between four and twenty carbon atoms</span>. Gasoline is a mixture <span> of many different hydrocarbons: </span><span>alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkanes  and alkenes (olefins).</span>

Which of the following occurs when a covalent bond forms? Which of the following occurs when a covalent bond forms? Partial char
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is defined as the bond which occurs due to sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

Generally, a covalent bond is formed between non-metals.

For example, both nitrogen and oxygen atoms are non-metals and they combine covalently to form NO_{2} compound.

As nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. So, there occurs unequal sharing of electrons between the two.

Thus, we can conclude that when a covalent bond forms then electrons in valence shells are shared between atoms.

Dermal tissue in plants, is most like what tissue in humans?
Arte-miy333 [17]
The dermal tissue is basically the outer part of the cell that protects the plant cell so in that case it would be the carbohydrate or cell wall. If you would put the choices it could have been a bit better :)

A. Energy is transferred to different forms
Luden [163]

Answer:

A. Energy is transferred to different forms .

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, we need to consider the law of conservation of mass and energy which states that mass and energy cannot be neither created nor destroyed, just modified; it means we can rule out B. and C. so far.

Moreover, since D. is actually true for combustion reactions because they are used to provide energy in industrial operations, this is not the concern here because a combustion reaction is not considered.

Therefore the correct option is A. Energy is transferred to different forms as the energy provided by Rose is transferred to the pendulum system .

Best regards!

How many grams of sulfur must be burned to give 100.0 g of So2
andriy [413]

Answer:

50 g of S are needed

Explanation:

To star this, we begin from the reaction:

S(s) + O₂ (g) →  SO₂ (g)

If we burn 1 mol of sulfur with 1 mol of oxygen, we can produce 1 mol of sulfur dioxide. In conclussion, ratio is 1:1.

According to stoichiometry, we can determine the moles of sulfur dioxide produced.

100 g. 1mol / 64.06g = 1.56 moles

This 1.56 moles were orginated by the same amount of S, according to stoichiometry.

Let's convert the moles to mass

1.56 mol . 32.06g / mol = 50 g
