You can stop the burning of methane with water or carbon dioxide extinguishers but problems arise when you try to use this to stop the burning of the magnesium.
Explanation:
To burn magnesium (Mg) and methane (CH₄) you need to react them with oxygen:
2 Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO + heat
CH₄ (g) + 2 O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) + heat
However at that temperatures magnesium (Mg) is able to react with water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Mg (s) + 2 H₂O (l) → Mg(OH)₂ (s) + H₂ (g)
2 Mg (s) + CO₂ (g) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)
So the safe option to stop the burning of the magnesium is to limit the oxygen in the air.
we have used the following notations:
(s) - solid
(g) - gas
(l) - liquid

Mole fraction<span> is another way of expressing the concentration of a solution or mixture. It is equal to the </span>moles<span> of one component divided by the total </span><span>moles.
mass CH4O = 0.270 (51) = 13.77 g methanol
water = 51 - 13.77 = 37.23 g water

Your answer is D rods and cones. Hope this helps!! :)
It is true that substances that have a high melting point and conduct electricity in the liquid phase are ionic substances, and if one of your options is NaCl, then that is the correct answer.
