Since the heat of combustion of butane is higher than that of propane,  butane will produce more heat per gram when burned compared to propane.

The heat of combustion of a compound refers to the heat evolved when one mole of the compound is burnt under standard conditions. This heat of combustion increases from methane upwards.

Since the heat of combustion of alkanes increases according to increasing molar mass, butane will produce more heat per gram when burned compared to propane.

A fossilized leaf contains 24% of its normal amount of carbon 14. how old is the fossil (to the nearest year)? use 5600 years as
sergij07 [2.7K]
The Half life is the time taken for a radioisotope or a radioactive substance to decay by half its original amount. The half life of carbon 14 is 5600 years. 
Original mass is 100%
Remaining amount is 24% 
Therefore; 0.24 = 1 × (1/2)^n
                     n = log 0.24/log 0.5
                        = 2.06
therefore, the age of the fossil is 5600×2.06
 = 11529.8 
 ≈ 11529 years

\"Moving down group 2A (Alkaline Earth Metals), which element has the largest first ionization energy?\" Is the answer to this:
lesya692 [45]

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electron from one mole of gaseous atom to produce 1 mole of gaseous in to produce a charge of 1. The greater the ionization energy, the greater is the chance f the electron to be removed from the nucleus. In this casse, Radium has the largest ionization energy.

Which tool or tools would you use to measure and compare the mass of a cup of fresh water and a cup of salt water
Artemon [7]
You could use a scale to measure the mass as well as a cup to hold the water. If you were comparing the two, you should also probably use a graduated cylinder to get the same amount of each type of water.

Hope this helped ^_^

The bottom of a box has a surface area of 25.0 cm 2 . The mass of the box is 34.0 kilograms. Acceleration due to gravity at sea
Viktor [21]
Pressure given by: 
Pressure=(force)/(area)
Force=Mass*gravitational pull
Mass=34Kg
gravity=9.80

so,
force=34*9.8=333.2
thus;
pressure=333.2/25=13.328=13.3 N/cm^2

Hope this helped :)
