Answer:

(ii) Ethane and Heptadecane

Explanation:

The separation of all the species listed in the answer options for the question depends on the molar mass of each specie.

Ethane is a low molecular mass gas. It exists in the gaseous state at room temperature. However, heptadecane appears as a liquid because it has a greater relative molecular mass.

It is very easily to distinguish between the gas, ethane and the liquid heptadecane which is a high molecular mass alkane, hence the answer.

Sulfur and oxygen form both sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide. When samples of these are decomposed, the sulfur dioxide produce
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
To determine the mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide, we simply obtain the ratio of the mass of oxygen and the mass of sulfur produced from the decomposition of sulfur dioxide. All other values given in the problem statement above are just to confuse us that the question is a difficult one. We do as follows:

mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 3.45 g / 3.46 g
mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 0.9971 g O2 / g S

6. Describe the energy inputs and outputs for the campfire. Use the law of conservation of energy to construct a valid qualitati
Doss [256]

Answer:

Energy in the campfire originates from the potential chemical energy of the wood, before it is burnt to warm and give light around the campfire.

Explanation:

For a camp fire, the energy input is in the form of the potential chemical energy, stored up in the firewood used to fuel the flame.

The energy output is in the form of heat energy that the campfire radiates all around, light energy given off from the flame, and a little bit of sound energy, heard in the cracking of the firewood as they burn in the flame.

chemical energy ⇒ heat energy + light energy + sound energy

Which of these compounds has the correct chemical formula? 1. ba3po4 2. (nh4)2so4 3. mg2oh 4. lif2 5. caoh?
sergiy2304 [10]
Ba3PO4 is not neutral, it is positive.  (NH4)2SO4 is neutral, the charges cancel.
Mg2OH is not neutral, it is positive.  LiF2 is not neutral, it is negative.  CaOH is not neutral, it is positive.  The answer is (NH4)2SO4, correct ions will have a neutral charge.

What is a key difference between an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell? The anode is where the oxidation takes place. The cath
Volgvan
the answer is "There is an outside energy source." in voltaic cells, there is not need of an external source of energy because they involve spontaneous reactions. 

in both types of cells, the electrons move from anode to cathode, the anode is where oxidation takes place and cathode for reduction (an ox, red cat). also both have two half reactions.
