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)

Which of the following adaptations would you expect tofind in an animal in the alpine biome, but not in the taiga
almond37 [142]
I think the best answer is migration. In an alpine biome, animals have two problems which is the very cold temperature and the UV rays from the sun. Most alpine animals hibernate and migrate to warmer areas of the mountains when the temperature continues to drop.

Solids have:<br> fixed shape<br> O A and B<br> fixed size<br> neither A nor B
Lemur [1.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. A and B</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

1. Solids have a definite volume, definite size and definite shape

2. The particles present in a solid are very closely packed since the intermolecular forces between them are very strong. The molecules do not move apart.

3. Melting point is the temperature at which solid changes into a liquid.

4. When a solid is heated to the melting point the intermolecular forces are overcome by the energy and the molecules present in it moves from its fixed position to take its liquid state which is called as melting.

The combustion of 3.795 mg of liquid B, which contains only C, H, and O, with excess oxygen gave 9.708 mg of CO2 and 3.969 mg of
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Explanation:

9.708 mg of CO₂ will contain 12 x 9.708 / 44 = 2.64 g of C .

3.969 mg of H₂O will contain 2 x 3.969 / 18 = .441 g of H .

mg of O in given liquid B = 3.795 - ( 2.64 + .441 ) = .714 mg

ratio of mg of C , H , O in the compound = 2.64 : .441 : .714

ratio of no of atoms  of C , H , O in the compound

= 2.64 / 12 : .441 /1 : .714 / 16

= .22 : .44 : .0446

= .22 / .22 : .44 / .22 : .044 / .22

= 1 : 2 : .2

1 x 5 : 2 x 5 : .2 x 5

= 5 : 10 : 1

empirical formula of the compound = C₅H₁₀O

Volume of 89.8 mL at 1 .00 atm at 200⁰C

volume of gas at 1 atm and 0⁰C = 89.8 x 273 / 473 mL

= 51.83 mL

51.83 mL weighs .205 g

22400 mL will weigh .205 x 22400 / 51.83 g

= 88.6 g

So molecular weight = 88.6

Let molecular formula be (C₅H₁₀O)ₙ

molecular weight = n ( 5 x 12 + 10 + 16 )

= 86 n

86 n = 88.6

n = 1 approx

So molecular formula is same as empirical formula

C₅H₁₀O is molecular formula .
