Give two reasons why a luminous flame is not used for heating purposes. (2mks) a​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natali [406]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The Two reasons are :-

1. Combustion efficiency

2. Standardization of test conditions as non-luminous flame.

Explanation:

A luminous flame isn't suitable for heating as it gives out soot (A black powdery or flaky substance consisting largely of amorphous carbon, produced by the incomplete burning of organic matter)

“Dry ice” is the solid form of carbon dioxide. Determine the number of mass of CO2 gas in grams that are present in 61.8 L of CO
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Mass  = 121 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass in gram of CO₂ = ?

Volume = 61.8 L

Pressure = standard = 1 atm

Temperature = 273.15 K

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

1 atm × 61.8 L = n ×0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   × 273.15 k

61.8 L.atm = 22.42 atm.L/ mol × n

n = 61.8 L.atm /22.42 atm.L/ mol

n = 2.76 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass =  number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 2.76 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass  = 121 g

Explain why arginine is a basic amino acid
Mumz [18]

Answer:

There are three amino acids that have basic side chains at neutral pH. These are arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), and histidine (His). Their side chains contain nitrogen and resemble ammonia, which is a base. Their pKa's are high enough that they tend to bind protons, gaining a positive charge in the process.

2. How many grams of zinc will be formed if 32.0 g of copper reacts with zinc nitrate? Copper(I)nitrate is the other product.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

16.46 g.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometry problem.
  • We should write the balance equation of the mentioned chemical reaction:

<em>2Cu + Zn(NO₃)₂ → Zn + 2Cu(NO₃).</em>

  • It is clear that 2.0 moles of Cu reacts with 1.0 mole of Zn(NO₃)₂ to produce 1.0 mole of Zn and 2.0 moles of Cu(NO₃).
  • We need to calculate the number of moles of the reacted Cu (32.0 g) using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass</em>

  • The no. of moles of Cu = mass / atomic mass = (32.0 g) / (63.546 g/mol) = 0.503 mol.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

2.0 moles of Cu produces → 1.0 mole of Zn, from the stichiometry.

0.503 mole of Cu produces → ??? mole of Zn.

  • The no. of moles of Zn produced = (1.0 mol)(0.503 mol) / (2.0 mol) = 0.2517 mol.

∴ The grams of Zn produced = no. of moles x atomic mass of Zn = (0.2517 mol)(65.38 g/mol) = 16.46 g.

Calculate the frequency of electromagnetic wave with the wave length 344nm ( hint: use dimensional analysis)
Svetlanka [38]
Frequency = speed of light
                      ---------------------------
                        wavelength 
 
                   =        3 x 10^8
                      ------------------------
                          344 x 10^-9
 
                   =          8.72 x 10^14 Hz.

Hope this helps!
