Answer:

C. Burning oil

Explanation:

Water cannot be used as a fire extinguisher to extinguish the flames of burning oils such as gasoline, petrol, or diesel. Because oil is lighter than water, it floats on top of it and cremates. Furthermore, as the water spreads and carries the oil with it, the fire spreads over a larger area.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

Answer:

Burning oil

Explanation:

oil has lower density than water
As water has higher density it will sink down and oil will be over it .
So it can't control the oil related fire

A student weighs an empty flask and stopper and finds the mass to be 55.844 g. She then adds about 5 mL of an unknown liquid and

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer :

(a) The pressure of the vapor in the flask in atm is, 0.989 atm

(b) The temperature of the vapor in the flask in Kelvin is, 372.7 K

The volume of the flask in liters is, 0.2481 L

(c) The mass of vapor present in the flask was, 0.257 g

(d) The number of moles of vapor present are 0.00802 mole.

(e) The mass of one mole of vapor is 32.0 g/mole

Explanation : Given,

Mass of empty flask and stopper = 55.844 g

Volume of liquid = 5 mL

Temperature = $99.7^oC$

Mass of flask and condensed vapor = 56.101 g

Volume of flask = 248.1 mL

Barometric pressure in the laboratory = 752 mmHg

(a) First we have to determine the pressure of the vapor in the flask in atm.

Pressure of the vapor in the flask = Barometric pressure in the laboratory = 752 mmHg

Conversion used :

$1atm=760mmHg$

or,

$1mmHg=\frac{1}{760}atm$

As, $1mmHg=\frac{1}{760}atm$

So, $752mmHg=\frac{752mmHg}{1mmHg}\times \frac{1}{760}atm=0.989atm$

Thus, the pressure of the vapor in the flask in atm is, 0.989 atm

(b) Now we have to determine the temperature of the vapor in the flask in Kelvin.

Conversion used :

$K=273+^oC$

As, $K=273+^oC$

So, $K=273+99.7=372.7$

Thus, the temperature of the vapor in the flask in Kelvin is, 372.7 K

Now we have to determine the volume of the flask in liters.

Conversion used :

1 L = 1000 mL

or,

1 mL = 0.001 L

As, 1 mL = 0.001 L

So, 248.1 mL = 248.1 × 0.001 L = 0.2481 L

Thus, the volume of the flask in liters is, 0.2481 L

(c) Now we have to determine the mass of vapor that was present in the flask.

Mass of flask and condensed vapor = 56.101 g

Mass of empty flask and stopper = 55.844 g

Mass of vapor in flask = Mass of flask and condensed vapor - Mass of empty flask and stopper

Mass of vapor in flask = 56.101 g - 55.844 g

Mass of vapor in flask = 0.257 g

Thus, the mass of vapor present in the flask was, 0.257 g

(d) Now we have to determine the number of moles of vapor present.

Using ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of vapor = 0.989 atm

V = Volume of vapor = 0.2481 L

n = number of moles of vapor = ?

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of vapor = 372.7 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(0.989atm)\times 0.2481L=n\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 372.7K\\\\n=0.00802mole$

Thus, the number of moles of vapor present are 0.00802 mole.

(e) Now we have to determine the mass of one mole of vapor.

$\text{Mass of one mole of vapor}=\frac{\text{Mass of vapor}}{\text{Moles of vapor}}$

$\text{Mass of one mole of vapor}=\frac{0.257g}{0.00802mole}=32.0g/mole$

Thus, the mass of one mole of vapor is 32.0 g/mole

Which statement explains why a C–O bond is

Nataly_w [17]

Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen.

Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.

Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5

Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5

Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0

Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0

Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.

Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.

Acetic acid and water react to form hydronium cation and acetate anion, like this:

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is "Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction".

Explanation:

It applies a rate of reaction to the balance, a forward response dominates until it reaches a constant. This process is balanced before 52 mmol of the reactant $HC H_{3} \ CO_2$ , to which 3 is added. In balance, that rate of the forward reaction was its rate with forwarding reaction, both of which are higher than 0 as the response has achieved balance so that both species get a level greater than 0.

A sample of water at 100°C is converted to steam after absorbing 820 kJ of heat. How grams of H2O are contained in the sample? A

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Since water is already at 100°C all the energy is used to evaporate it.
Now we can calculate how many mols of water are evaporated with 820kJ.
$N= \frac{820}{41} =20 mol$
We calculated that we got 20 mols of water evaporated. Now, all we have to do is find how many grams is a mol of water. Molar mass of water is 20.16 g/mol.
The final answer is:
$m=20*20.16=403.2g$
