Corn starch, like wood, consists of a carbohydrate complex, which is why it burns – but it will only ignite when it is dispersed in air. While it's packed in the container or in a pile on the counter it will not burst into flames due to insufficient oxygen.

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Antifreeze is whats used to keep your engine cool without freezing.

Explanation:

it keeps the engine from overheating.

It also prevents corrosion.

Here is a quote from google "Antifreeze works because the freezing and boiling points of liquids are “colligative” properties. This means they depend on the concentrations of “solutes,” or dissolved substances, in the solution. A pure solution freezes because the lower temperatures cause the molecules to slow down"

That quote is from "The Science Behind Antifreeze"

When the ideal gas law constant 0.0821 is used, what unit of pressure should be used in the ideal gas law calculation?
Julli [10]
The pressure unit is in atmospheres or atm. To confirm this from the ideal gas equation: 

R = VP/nT

plugging in the standard values of pressure, temperature and molar volume,

R = (22.4L/mo)l(1atm)/(273.15K) = 0.0821
