Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) and halons are ozone depleting substances. The origin of these pollutants are propellants, refrigerants and foam blowing agents. CFC’s are replaced by the less harmful hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). CFC-12 is replaced with HFC-134a in air conditioners. Also MeBr a fumigant used in agriculture has been completely banned.

The two pollutants that destroys the ozone layer are CFC (Chlorofluorocarbons) and Methyl bromide. When the sun rays hit these molecules, they releases chlorine and bromine into the atmosphere. The chlorine and bromine reacts with the ozone present in the stratosphere and thus results in the depletion.


The origination of these pollutants are refrigerators, Air conditioners and aerosol cans.

Two hundred grams of a substance requires 9.76 kj of heat to raise its temperature from 25degrees C to 45 degrees C
Irina18 [472]
Heat can be calculated using the formula:

U = mCpΔT

where:

U = internal energy or heat
m = mass of substance
Cp = specific heat capacity of a substance (constant)
ΔT = change in temperature = (Tf - Ti)

In the problem, we are given all these terms except for the Cp, which can help identify what the substance is. This is because Cp is unique and constant for a particular substance.

9760 = 200(Cp)(45-25)
Cp = 2.44 J/g-°C

Now, look for a library or list of specific heat capacities. Look for a substance that has the closest value to what you calculated. Based on data, the substance used is ethyl alcohol which has a Cp of exactly 2.44 J/g-°C

You can use this as reference: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/specific-heat-capacity-d_391.html

Which of the following is the correct model of C3H18? ​
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

B.

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Organic</u>

  • Hydrocarbons
  • Bond-Line Notation: Each "arrow" point represents a carbon and the lines represent a bond between the carbons. Hydrogens are assumed added when drawing the molecular formulas

Explanation:

We are given C₈H₁₈. We need a Bond-Line notation where there are 8 "arrow" points (which represent Carbon). We can disregard the Hydrogens as they are assumed to take the rest of the bonds.

Only option B has a value of 8 carbons, represented by the "arrow" points. Therefore, it is the correct answer.
