Answer:

Coal produces more pollutants in the air.

Explanation:

Each other answer has the words 'more difficult' or 'not commonly used.   I think this is right...I won't see my grade for a long time though.... very, truly sorry if it is wrong! :)

Anthracite coal d) is the most abundant grade of coal e) is very soft and burns at high temperatures a) causes the most air poll
forsale [732]

Answer: The correct option is C ( is very hard and burns cleanly).

Explanation:

COAL is a form of rock that is made up of mostly carbon amongst other elements which includes sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. There are different types of coal which include:

--> anthracite ( 90% carbon)

--> bituminous coal ( 70-90% carbon)

--> lignite ( 60- 70% carbon) and

--> peat (60 % carbon).

Anthracite is the type of coal that contains the highest carbon content ( 90% carbon). This makes it very hard and is often a times referred to as HARD COAL. Anthracite is a higher quality coal for domestic and open fire heating. This is because it contains less impurities than other type of coal and thereby making it to BURN CLEANLY avoiding atmospheric pollution.

Calculate the percent of each component in the mixture. Show your calculations. Circle final answers.
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete; as the mixtures are not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation on how to go about it and I'll also give an example.

The percentage of a component in a mixture is calculated as:

\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%

Where

E = Amount of element/component

T = Amount of all elements/components

Take for instance:

In (Ca(OH)_2)

The amount of all elements is: (i.e formula mass of (Ca(OH)_2))

T = 1 * Ca + 2 * H + 2 * O

T = 1 * 40 + 2 * 1 + 2 * 16

T = 74

The amount of calcium is: (i.e formula mass of calcium)

E = 1 * Ca

E = 1 * 40

E = 40

So, the percentage component of calcium is:

\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{40}{74} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{4000}{74}\%

\%C_E = 54.05\%

The amount of hydrogen is:

E = 2 * H

E = 2 * 1

E = 2

So, the percentage component of hydrogen is:

\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{2}{74} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{200}{74}\%

\%C_E = 2.70\%

Similarly, for oxygen:

The amount of oxygen is:

E = 2 * O

E = 2 * 16

E = 32

So, the percentage component of oxygen is:

\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{32}{74} * 100\%

\%C_E = \frac{3200}{74}\%

\%C_E = 43.24\%

Answer:

This is when two or more compounds or elements react to form a single product.

In these reactions new substances are produced or synthesized.

in simple terms the elements or compounds are converted to something new.
