Which of the following gases can be used for storage of fresh sample of an oil for a long time?
(A) Carbon dioxide or oxygen
(B) Nitrogen or oxygen
(C) Carbon dioxide or helium
(D) Helium or nitrogen
To prevent rancidification of foods containing fats and oils, the packed food is surrounded by unreactive gas (like helium, nitrogen, etc.). The inert atmosphere thus created prevents oxidation of fats and oils.
The percentage of gases like oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide remain almost the same in the atmosphere because cycling of these gases maintains consistency.
The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed or mass of reactants is always equal to that of products.
C + ...
(d) Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide react with molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.
Calculation of mass of CO2 produced:
Mass of compound =0.20g
%C =12 x C
69=12*mass of CO2 formed*100/44*0.2
Mass of CO2 formed =69*44*.2/12*100
= 0.506g
Similarly, % H =2* mass of H2O formed*100/18*mass of compoun
4.8=2* mass...
