Answer: Undecane, C11H24 is a liquid hydrocarbon from the alkane homologue ( family ).
Explanation:
All hydrocarbons burn in air to release H20 and CO2.
Combustion of hydrocarbons thus increases the percentage of CO2 present in the atmosphere which is not so good as CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases produce the greenhouse effect. The green house effect is the warming effect produced when gases present in the atmosphere allow and retain the radiation from the sun to the earth. Examples of greenhouse gases are CO2, CH4, SO3, NO, CFCs. The greenhouse effect leads to an increase in the temperature of the earth subsequently leading to (I) melting of large amounts of ice at the poles causing flooding. (II) rapid evaporation of water from Earth’s surface. (III) decrease in crop yield.
Also, high concentration CFCs ( chlorofluorocarbons ), as widely used in aerosols, coolants and packaging foams, in the atmosphere depletes the ozone layer leading to global warming. In 1996 an international agreement was reached for a complete ban of CFCs and more countries are now going Green ( using alternative energy sources ) so as to minimize emissions of these greenhouse gases
Answer:
1.20atm
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Partial pressure of gas 1 = 0.35atm
Partial pressure of gas 2 = 0.20atm
Partial pressure of gas 3 = 0.65atm
Unknown:
Total pressure of the gas mixture = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we need to recall and understand the Dalton's law of partial pressure.
Dalton's law of partial pressure states that "the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of the constituent gases".
Total pressure =Pressure of gas(1 + 2 + 3)
The partial pressure is the pressure a gas would exert if it alone occupied the volume of the gas mixture.
Now we substitute;
Total pressure = (0.35 + 0.20 + 0.65)atm = 1.20atm
It is called a cycle because it is repetitive, therefore making it a cycle (or almost never ending)
A pure crystalline substance is a substance with an almost perfect regular and periodic pattern in a solid state. This makes this type of substance a hard one compared to an amorphous substance which is soft because of the irregular pattern within.
