Explanation:

This is due to a reduction in atmospheric pressure – pressure due to the weight of the overlying air column). Remember that the higher the altitude the lower the air density and subsequently the lower the air pressure.

Therefore when heating water at higher altitude the vapor pressure of the water at the surface overpowers the atmospheric pressure – which is slightly lower than at sea level – even before the water temperatures reach 100 degrees centigrade.

Choose the reaction that represents the combustion of C6H12O2.
Leona [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  letter D

Explanation:

In a combustion reaction, the reactants are always a molecule with Carbon that reacts with oxygen and the products are carbon dioxide and water.

According to the explanation, the only possible solution is:

a) C₆H₁₂O₂(l) ⇒ 6 C(s) + 6 H₂(g) + O₂(g)

b) Mg(s) + C₆H₁₂O₂(l) ⇒ MgC₆H₁₂O₂(aq)

c) 6 C(s) + 6 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ C₆H₁₂O₂(l)

d) C₆H₁₂O₂(l) + 8 O₂(g) ⇒ 6 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

e) None of the above represent the combustion of C₆H₁₂O₂.
