Answer:
Alkane
Explanation:
Definition of Alkane "any of the series of saturated hydrocarbons including methane, ethane, propane, and higher members. (google dictionary)"
CH4 is methane.
Answer:
It will be reported too low.
Explanation:
To measure the specific heat of the metal (s), the calorimeter may be used. In it, the metal will exchange heat with the water, and they will reach thermal equilibrium. Because it can be considered an isolated system (there're aren't dissipations) the total amount of heat (lost by metal + gained by water) must be 0.
Qmetal + Qwater = 0
Qmetal = -Qwater
The heat is the mass multiplied by the specific heat multiplied by the temperature change. If c is the specific heat of the water:
m_metal*s*ΔT_metal = - m_water *c*ΔT_water
s = -m_water *c*ΔT_water / m_metal*ΔT_metal
So, if m_water is now less than it was supposed to be, s will be reported too low, because they are directly proportional.
As far as I know, the answer is B (breaking a rock)
We measure temperature in degrees of Fahrenheit
The balanced chemical equation is :
5P₄ + 36OH → 12HPO₃⁻² (aq) + 8PH₃ (acidic)
Here the oxidation number of P changed from 0 to -3 in PH₃ and increases from 0 to +3 in HPO₃⁻². When P₄ changes to PH₃ reduction reaction is taking place as there is addition of hydrogen and when P₄ changes to HPO₃⁻² oxidation takes place as there is addition of oxygen.
Thus clearly both reduction and oxidation are taking place.
Thus, we can infer that here P₄ is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent.
