The Texas City Refinery explosion occurred on March 23, 2005, when a hydrocarbon vapor cloud was ignited and violently exploded at the ISOM isomerization process unit at BP's Texas City refinery in Texas City, Texas, killing 15 workers, injuring 180 others and severely damaging the refinery.
The correct answer is :
the purpose of heating the mixture is to accelerate the reaction and mix the reagent.
The explanation:
Many organic reactions are slow and can take an extended period of time to achieve any noticeable effect so heating is often used to increase the rate of reaction. However, many organic compounds have low boiling points and will vaporise upon exposure to such high heat, preventing the reaction from proceeding in full.
so, heating is used. This refers to heating a solution with an attached condenser to prevent reagents from escaping
Pressure is 5.7 atm
<u>Explanation:</u>
P1 = Standard pressure = 1 atm
P2 = ?
V1 = Volume = 10L
V2= 2.4L
T1 = 0°C + 273 K = 273 K
T2 = 100°C + 273 K = 373 K
We have to find the pressure of the gas, by using the gas formula as,
P2 can be found by rewriting the above expression as,
Plugin the above values as,
This is because no matter how hard you try to shake or combine the oil and vinegar<span> together, they eventually </span>separate<span>. This happens because </span>vinegar<span> and </span>oil<span> are made of very different types of molecules that are attracted to their own kind.</span>
