Explain how a motorcar engine produces nitrogen oxides

Chemistry
2 answers:
olya-2409 [2.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: combustion causes a chemical reaction between nitrogen and oxygen in the engine.

Explanation:

Nitrogen oxides are produced in combustion processes, partly from nitrogen compounds in the fuel, but mostly by direct combination of atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen in flames. Nitrogen oxides are produced naturally by lightning, and also, to a small extent, by microbial processes in soils.

Calculate the pH and pOH of 0.010 mol OH- per liter
Sati [7]
We can use a variety of formulas to determine our answers here.

Our formula for pOH is -log(mol), and we can plug it in as -log(0.010). Take note that OH- is a base, not an acid. 

So, the pOH of OH- is 2.

To find pH we can set up this simple equation:
pH + pOH = 14
All we need to do is subtract 2 from 14, therefore the pH is 12.

This makes sense since acids range in the pH of 1-6, and we are dealing with a base. Hope I could help!

Select True or False: A "gas" is a substance in which the molecules are separated on the average by distances that are large com
marta [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The gaseous state is characterized in that the cohesion forces are usually null, in which the particles have their maximum mobility. The particles tend to occupy all the available volume, so their shape and volume are variable. The gaseous state is a dispersed state of matter, which means that the molecules are separated by distances much larger than the diameter of the gas molecules.
