How do I describe a method that could beused to separate helium and oxygen gases ? Please help me

1 answer:

8 0

To describe a method to separate both substances, we look at the properties of of both and take advantage of these properties. For instance, the difference of the boiling point of the substances is very large so we can use this property. We can cool both substances to a temperature lower than 90.2 K (oxygen) but higher than 4.2 K (helium). At this state, oxygen is liquid while helium is in the gas state so we can separate them completely.

In an investigation, explain the best way to use variables in an experiment

vazorg [7]

Answer:

An experiment is an investigation in which a hypothesis is scientifically tested. In an experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. An advantage is that experiments should be objective.

CH4+(x)O2=CO2 +(Y)H2O
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=2+? +H=?
H=4>>Y=2
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=(2+2) +H=4
C=1 +H=4 +O=4 = C=1 +O=4 +H=4
O=4>>X=2
CH4+(2)O2 =CO2 +(2)H2O
