Answer: D. natural gas

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are the source of energy that are excavated from the deep layers of the earth crust. They are produced after year long microbial activity over the decayed plant and animal matter. Natural gas is the fossil fuel which is a naturally occurring natural gas which primarily consists of methane, but also contains alkanes, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and helium.

It is the most common type of fossil fuel used for heating and cooking purposes. As it is cheapest in price as compared to other fuels and emits less amount of gaseous waste after combustion. Therefore, does not create pollution in house when used for heating and cooking.

What is ion, electrons, neutrons?
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ions:

When an atom lose or gain electron ions are formed.

There are two types of ions anion and cation.

Anion:

When an atom gain electron negative charge is created and anion is formed.

X + e⁻  → X⁻

Cation:

When an atom lose electron positive charge is created and cation is formed.

X   →  X⁺ + e⁻

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

Neutron and proton:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P+  

Symbol of neutron= n0  

Mass of proton=1.672623×10-27 Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10-27 Kg

4FeS2 + 11O2 > 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

80.13g of SO2

Explanation:

4FeS2 + 11O2 —> 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2

Molar Mass of FeS2 = 55.8 + (2x32) = 119.8g/mol

Mass of FeS2 from the balanced equation = 4 x 119.8 = 479.2

Molar Mass of SO2 = 32 + (16x2) = 32 + 32 = 64g/mol

Mass of SO2 from the balanced equation = 8 x 64 = 512g

From the equation,

479.2g of FeS2 produced 512g of SO2.

Therefore, 75g of FeS2 will produce = (75 x 512)/479.2 = 80.13g of SO2
