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.

If exactly 59.6 g of nitrogen gas is needed to inflate your air bag to the
Inga [223]

Answer:

We need 92.3 grams of sodium azide

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of nitrogen gas = 59.6 grams

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28.0 g/mol

Molar mass of sodium azide = 65.0 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2NaN3 → 2Na + 3N2

Step 3: Calculate moles nitrogen gas

Moles N2 = mass N2 / molar mass N2

Moles N2 = 59.6 grams/ 28.0 g/mol

Moles N2 = 2.13 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles NaN3

for 2 moles NaN3 we'll have 2 moles Na and 3  moles N2

For 2.13 moles N2 we need 2/3* 2.13 = 1.42 moles NaN3

Step 5: Calculate mass NaN3

Mass NaN3 = Moles NaN3 * molar mass NaN3

Mass NaN3 = 1.42 moles * 65.0 g/mol

Mass NaN3 = 92.3 grams

We need 92.3 grams of sodium azide

How does a network solid differ from most other covalent compounds
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Covalent compounds are held by intermolecular forces while network solids are held by strong bonds in unit cells which are closely packed together.

Explanation:

Covalent compound molecules are held by vanderwaals forces which are relatively weak but strong enough to hold some covalent molecules together in the solid state. However, network solids contain atom to atom covalent bonds arranged in an orderly manner and regular repeating unit cells to form a rigid three dimensional network solid.

What is a common use of bases?
Fittoniya [83]

A common use of bases is to reduce indigestion. Hence, option D is correct.

<h3>What is the base?</h3>

A base is a substance that can neutralize the acid by reacting with hydrogen ions.

Bases are substances whose solutions have a pH value of more than 7. Bases are bitter in taste.

Whereas acids are the substances whose solutions have a pH value of less than 7. Acids are sour in taste.

When an excess of acid is formed in the human stomach then an antacid tablet which is basically a base is consumed that helps in reducing indigestion.

Therefore, we can conclude that the common use of bases is to reduce indigestion.
