Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

Normally, when the temperature of water gets colder than 4° C, it starts expanding and will become less dense the colder it becomes. As the temperature gets closer to freezing point, the colder water will float to the top and the warmer water sinks to the bottom. This is mainly because of how the density of water behaves with falling temperatures.

Thus, the lake/river water will freeze from top to down as a a result of that phenomenon of colder water floating to the top and the warmer water sinking to the bottom.

Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of 2,3-dimethylbutane. use the molecular formula for the alkane (c before
Nuetrik [128]

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the <em>condensed structural  formula</em> for 2,3-dimethylbutane.

(CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Write the <em>molecular formula</em>.

C_6H_14

<em>Step 3</em>. Write the <em>unbalanced chemical equation</em>.

C_6H_14 + O_2 → CO_2 + H_2O

<em>Step 4</em>. Pick the <em>most complicated-looking formula</em> (C_6H_14) and balance its atoms (C and H).

<em>1</em>C_6H_14 + O_2 → <em>6</em>CO_2 + <em>7</em>H_2O

<em>Step 5</em>. Balance the <em>remaining atoms</em> (O).

1C_6H_14 + (<em>19/2</em>)O_2 → 6CO_2 + 7H_2O

Oops! <em>Fractional coefficients</em>!

<em>Step 6</em>. <em>Multiply all coefficients by a number</em> (2) to give integer coeficients..

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

Which of the following choices results in a decrease in the overall density of a product? Question 5 options: Increase the volum
Elza [17]

Answer:

When the volume of product increases.

When the weight of the product decreases.

Option (a) and (d) are correct.

Explanation:

The overall density of the product can be decreased:

a. Increase the volume of the product (and keep the material same)

d. Decrease the weight of the product ( and keep the same material ).

Density is calculated as the ratio of mass to the volume.  

Density is inversely related to volume and directly related to mass.

So, when the mass of the product is increased then the density will increase keeping the material same. Density will also increase when the volume of the product decreased.
