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

How many moles of oxygen are in 52.5 grams of oxygen gas?
adell [148]
An oxygen gas is a diatomic molecule which means that each molecule is composed of 2 atoms. Its symbol is O2. 

Each oxygen atom has a molar mass of 16 g/mol. The molar mass of oxygen gas is calculated below,
                         molar mass = 2 x (16 g/mol) = 32 g/mol

To determine the number of moles in 52.5 grams of oxygen, divide the given mass by the calculated molar mass.
 
                                 n = 52.5 grams / (32 gram/ mol)
                                     n = 1.64 moles

Thus, there are 1.64 moles of oxygen gas.

What does a metal's position in an activity series indicate about the chemical properties of that particular metal?
Fed [463]
The closer to the top the metal is in the list, the more active the metal is and the stronger a reducing agent the metal is. When two different metals are involved in a redox reaction, the metal higher in the list will be oxidized and give up electrons that will reduce the cation of the less active metal.

Compare the ability to hold on to / attract electrons between metals and nonmetals.
skad [1K]

Nonmetals have the ability to attract electrons better than metals because they have a higher electron affinity or electronegativity than metals.

<h3>What is electronegativity?</h3>

Electronegativity is the tendency, or a measure of the ability, of an atom or molecule to attract electrons and thus form bonds.

An element in the periodic table with a high electronegativity will automatically have a high electron affinity.

Metals (low electronegativity) are known to lose electrons to non-metals (high electronegativity), hence, nonmetals have the ability to attract electrons better than metals because they have a higher electron affinity or electronegativity than metals.

A 2.3 kg object has 15 ) of kinetic energy. Calculate its speed.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option D</h3>

Explanation:

To find the speed given the kinetic energy and mass we use the formula

v =  \sqrt{ \frac{2KE}{m} }  \\

where

m is the mass

v is the speed

From the question

KE = 15 J

m = 2.3 kg

We have

v =  \sqrt{ \frac{2 \times 15}{2.3} }  =  \sqrt{ \frac{30}{2.3} }  \\  = 3.61157559...

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.6 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you
