In order to reduce dependence on imported oil, the government of Jalica has imposed minimum fuel-efficiency requirements on all

new cars, beginning this year. The more fuel-efficient a car, the less pollution it produces per mile driven. As Jalicans replace their old cars with cars that meet the new requirements, annual pollution from car traffic is likely to decrease in Jalica.Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument‘?(A) In Jalica, domestically produced oil is more expensive than imported oil.(B) The Jalican government did not intend the new fuel-efiiciency requirement to be a pollution-reduction measure.(C) Some pollution-control devices mandated in Jalica make cars less fuel-efficient than they would be without those devices.(D) The new regulation requires no change in the chemical formulation of fuel for cars in Jalica.(E) Jalicans who get cars that are more fuel-efficient tend to do more driving than before.

Are s blocks metals ?
Mamont248 [21]
Yes, S-blocks are metals except for helium and hydrogen.  The S-block metals are shiny, silvery and relatively soft, although they can easily lose electrons.  Helium and hydrogen have valence electrons but also lack some similar properties as the other metals.

Select the conjugate acid-base pair(s). a) HI, I b) HCHO2, SO4^2- c) CO3^2-, HCI d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-
Semenov [28]

Answer:

d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-

Explanation:

Basically, an acid and a base which differs only by the presence or absence of  proton (hydrogen ion) are called a conjugate acid-base pair.

a) HI, I

This is incorrect. For the acid, HI the conjugate base is I⁻ ion.

b) HCHO2, SO4^2-

This is incorrect, there's no relationship between both entities.

c) CO3^2-, HCI

This is incorrect, there's no relationship between both entities.

d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-

This is correct. The difference between both entities is the Hydrogen ion. This is the conjugate acid-base pair

Grignard reactions are usually performed in ether solvent. Which statement below does not identify a safety concern associated w
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: A.  Diethyl ether has a very low miscibility in wate

The fact that the diethyl ether is miscible or not in water <u>does not imply a ris</u>k for the person who is working with this reagent in the laboratory.

However, the fact that diethyl ether forms explosive peroxides and that it is highly flammable implies that there is a risk of explosion when exposed to air and sunlight. On the other hand, as option C mentions, if a person inhales a large quantity of this reagent, they may lose consciousness and suffer some injury when fainting, due to the powerful anesthetic effect of this reagent.<u> In conclusion, options B, C and D are statements that imply safety problems associated with the use of diethyl ether in the laboratory, while option A does not imply it.</u>
