How could the survivors about starting a fire?

Chemistry
1 answer:
joja [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The ancient Greeks believed that fire was one the four basic elements that composed all things in the universe. In the mythology of virtually every culture, fire is a sacred substance that gives life or power. Fire is not, in fact, a substance. When you gaze at the leaping flames of a campfire, you’re observing not an object, but a process – a chemical reaction. It’s the same chemical reaction that occurs when a cut apple left on the counter turns brown, when silver tarnishes or when an iron nail rusts.

That process is oxidation: combining oxygen with another substance. The defining difference between a fire and your half-eaten apple is speed: fire is an oxidation process that happens very fast, so that light, heat and sound are released — often with enough force and majesty to justify the ancients’ reverence.The sudden release of energy causes temperatures to rise, sometimes by thousands of degrees. And it also results in smoke, the toxic waste of fire’s leftovers.

fuel (something that will burn)

heat (enough to make the fuel burn)

and air (oxygen)

Which acid/base pair will give an equivalence point that cannot be predicted solely by a general knowledge of acid and base stre
sleet_krkn [62]

The acid/base pair that give equivalence point that Cannot be predicted by general knowledge is NaOH and HCI ONH.

<h3>What is an Acid and base?</h3>

An Acid is a substances that is corrosive in nature and turn blue lithmus paper to red which it react with base to produce salt and water.

Acid dissolve metals.

Base is a substance that turn red lihthmus paper to blue and react with acid to produce salt and water.

Therefore, The acid/base pair that give equivalence point that Cannot be predicted by general knowledge is NaOH and HCI ONH.

The question is incomplete as the options were not given. The options were gotten from another website.

"An aqueous CaCl2 solution has a vapor pressure of 83.1mmHg at 50 ∘C. The vapor pressure of pure water at this temperature is 92
Lynna [10]

Answer : The the concentration of CaCl_2 in mass percent is, 41.18 %

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of CaCl_2 = 110.98 g/mole

First we have to calculate the mole fraction of solute.

According to the relative lowering of vapor pressure, the vapor pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component of the solution multiplied by the vapor pressure of that component in the pure state.

\fac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=X_B

where,

p^o = vapor pressure of the pure component (water) = 92.6 mmHg

p_s = vapor pressure of the solution = 83.1 mmHg

X_B = mole fraction of solute, (CaCl_2)

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the mole fraction of solute.

\fac{92.6-83.1}{92.6}=X_B

X_B=0.102

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of solvent (water).

As we know that,

X_A+X_B=1\\\\X_A=1-X_B\\\\X_A=1-0.102\\\\X_A=0.898

The number of moles of solute and solvent will be, 0.102 and 0.898 moles respectively.

Now we have to calculate the mass of solute, (CaCl_2) and solvent, (H_2O).

\text{Mass of }CaCl_2=\text{Moles of }CaCl_2\times \text{Molar mass of }CaCl_2

\text{Mass of }CaCl_2=(0.102mole)\times (110.98g/mole)=11.32g

\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.898mole)\times (18g/mole)=16.164g

Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent

Mass of solution = 11.32 + 16.164 = 27.484 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of CaCl_2

Mass\%=\frac{\text{Mass of}CaCl_2}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100=\frac{11.32g}{27.484g}\times 100=41.18\%

Therefore, the the concentration of CaCl_2 in mass percent is, 41.18 %

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. Cac
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The equation that gives the overall equilibrium in terms of the equilibrium constants K and Ky is K1 = K^6 * Ky

Explanation:

we have the following balanced reaction:

CaC2 + 2H2O = C2H2 + Ca(OH)2

the value of K for this reaction will be equal to:

K = ([C2H2] * [Ca(OH)2])/([CaC2] * [H2O]^2)

if we multiply the reaction by the value of 6, we have:

6CaC2 + 12H2O = 6C2H2 + 6Ca(OH)2

Again, the value of K for this reaction will be equal to:

K,´ = ([C2H2] ^6 * [Ca(OH)2]^6)/([CaC2]^6 * [H2O]^12) = K^6

For the second reaction:

6C2H2 + 3CO2 + 4H2O = 5CH2CHCO2H

The value of K for this reaction:

K2 = ([CH2CHCO2H]^5)/([C2H2]^6 * [CO2]^3 * [H2O]^4)

we also have:

K1 = ([CH2CHCO2H]^5)/([C2H2]^6 * [CO2]^3 * [H2O]^16)

Thus:

K1 = K^6 * Ky
