Explanation:

Whether you know it or not, compressed air is involved in every aspect of our lives, from the balloons at your birthday party to the air in the tires of our cars and bicycles. It was probably even used when making the phone, tablet or computer you’re viewing this on.

The main ingredient of compressed air is - you guessed it! - air. Air is a gas mixture, which means it consists of many different gases. Primarily these are nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%).

The temperature of the air is directly proportional to the mean kinetic energy of these molecules. This means that the air temperature will be high if the mean kinetic energy is large (and the air molecules move faster). The temperature will be low when the kinetic energy is small.

Compressing the air makes the molecules move more rapidly, which increases the temperature. This phenomenon is called “heat of compression”. Compressing air is literally to force it into a smaller space and as a result bringing the molecules closer to each other. The energy that gets released when doing this is equal to the energy required to force the air into the smaller space. In other words, it stores the energy for future use.

Heating a solution of alcohol and water, then collecting the alcohol vapors and condensing them into a liquid with higher alcoho
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Distillation.

Explanation:

If we are heating a mixture of two miscible liquids and collecting the vapors it means we are separating the two mixtures from each other based on their boiling point differences.

This technique of separation of two liquids based on the difference in boiling point is known as Distillation.

Alcohol will evaporate easily as compared to water as water has stronger influence of hydrogen bond making the inter-molecular forces stronger.

Find a mole of 0.0960 g of H2SO4
nignag [31]
Molar mass H₂SO₄ = 98.079 g/mol

1 mol -------- 98.079 g
? mole ------ 0.0960 g

moles = 0.0960 * 1 / 98.079

= 0.0960 / 98.079

= 9.788 x 10⁻⁴ moles

hope this helps!
