Answer:

The compounds are arranged from the least heat of combustion to the highest (in order of increasing heat of combustion).

Propane--> butane --> pentane.

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons are compounds which contains carbon and hydrogen only. Alkane is called a saturated hydrocarbon because all four bonds of carbon are single bonds. Examples of alkanes include: pentane, propane and butane. One of the chemical properties of alkanes includes combustion reaction.

In COMBUSTION REACTION, alkanes burns in air (oxygen) to produce carbon dioxide and water.The heat released on complete combustion of one mole of a substance is called HEAT OF COMBUSTION.

The heat of combustion of saturated hydrocarbon ( alkanes) increases with increase in number of carbon atoms in a molecule. This is due to more carbon available for burning and more number of bonds undergoing changes. Therefore in the arrangement of the given compounds, PENTANE has the highest heat of combustion while PROPANE is the least.

Is matter and mass always the same
Anna11 [10]
Matter is a slightly archaic word for something with mass, as in the conservation of matter (which must be paired with the conservation of energy to still hold true. Mass can be converted back and forth between energy, so therefore so can matter. Of course relativistic mass is conserved as it's a function of the energy of an object in that reference frame.

Answer:

five half lives

Explanation:

Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.

How many half lives it would take to reach 3.13% form 100% of it's initial concentration:

100% - 50% : First Half life

50% - 25%: Second Half life

25% - 12.5%: Third Half life

12.5% - 6.25%: Fourth Half life

6.25% - 3.125%: Fifth Half life

This means it would take five half lives to get to 3.125% (≈ 3.13%) of it's original concentration.

Explain the chemistry behind global warming in 3-5 sentences
Oliga [24]

Answer:

When factories mass produce something it produces smoke. That smoke can be harmful to something called the ozone layer. The ozone layer is part of earth's atmosphere that protects us from the suns burning heat. When that layer is damaged the sun's heat burns through heating up the world and melting ice causing the water levels to rise. All of this can make working conditions less safe, cause more flooding, and have the sun cause cancer.
