Answer:
Natural gas is an odorless, gaseous mixture of hydrocarbons—predominantly made up of methane (CH4). It accounts for about 30% of the energy used in the United States. About 40% of the fuel goes to electric power production and the remaining is split between residential and commercial uses, such as heating and cooking, and industrial uses. Although natural gas is a proven, reliable alternative fuel that has long been used to power natural gas vehicles, only about two-tenths of 1% is used for transportation fuel.
The vast majority of natural gas in the United States is considered a fossil fuel because it is made from sources formed over millions of years by the action of heat and pressure on organic materials. Alternatively, renewable natural gas (RNG), also known as biomethane, is a pipeline-quality vehicle fuel produced from organic materials—such as waste from landfills and livestock—through anaerobic digestion. RNG qualifies as an advanced biofuel under the Renewable Fuel Standard.
Because RNG is chemically identical to fossil-derived conventional natural gas, it can use the existing natural gas distribution system and must be compressed or liquefied for use in vehicles.
CNG and LNG as Alternative Transportation Fuels
Two forms of natural gas are currently used in vehicles: compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG). Both are domestically produced, relatively low priced, and commercially available. Considered alternative fuels under the Energy Policy Act of 1992, CNG and LNG are sold in units of gasoline or diesel gallon equivalents (GGEs or DGEs) based on the energy content of a gallon of gasoline or diesel fuel.
Compressed Natural Gas
CNG is produced by compressing natural gas to less than 1% of its volume at standard atmospheric pressure. To provide adequate driving range, CNG is stored onboard a vehicle in a compressed gaseous state at a pressure of up to 3,600 pounds per square inch.
CNG is used in light-, medium-, and heavy-duty applications. A CNG-powered vehicle gets about the same fuel economy as a conventional gasoline vehicle on a GGE basis. One GGE equals about 5.66 pounds of CNG.
Liquefied Natural Gas
LNG is natural gas in its liquid form. LNG is produced by purifying natural gas and super-cooling it to -260°F to turn it into a liquid. During the process known as liquefaction, natural gas is cooled below its boiling point, removing most of the extraneous compounds found in the fuel. The remaining natural gas is primarily methane with small amounts of other hydrocarbons.
Because of LNG's relatively high production cost, as well as the need to store it in expensive cryogenic tanks, the fuel's widespread use in commercial applications has been limited. LNG must be kept at cold temperatures and is stored in double-walled, vacuum-insulated pressure vessels. LNG is suitable for trucks that require longer ranges because liquid is denser than gas and, therefore, more energy can be stored by volume. LNG is typically used in medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. One GGE equals about 1.5 gallons of LNG.

Why do solids expand on heating?
Explanation:
The molecules of solids are shrinked in there normal state . but as a heat energy is produced , the molecules starts curating fast and fast as temperature goes up . since they vibrate , they hit and collide each other breaking the bondings this increases the surface of area of the solid , and molecules consumes that space and they expand .
Given 700 ml of oxygen at 7 ºC and 106.6 kPa pressure, what volume does it take at 27ºC and 66.6 kPa pressure
Answer:
The volume is 1.2L
Explanation:
Initial volume (V1) = 700mL = 0.7L
Initial temperature (T1) = 7°C = (7 + 273.15)K = 280.15K
Initial pressure = 106.6kPa = 106600Pa
Final temperature (T2) = 27°C = (27 + 273.15)K = 300.15K
Final pressure (P2) = 66.6kPa = 66600Pa
Final volume (V2) = ?
To solve this question, we need to use combined gas equation which is a combination of Boyle's law, Charles Law and pressure law.
(P1 × V1) / T1 = (P2 × V2) / T2
solve for V2 by making it the subject of formula,
P1 × V1 × T2 = P2 × V2 × T1
V2 = (P1 × V1 × T2) / (P2 × T1)
V2 = (106600 × 0.7 × 300.15) / (66600 × 280.15)
V2 = 22397193 / 18657990
V2 = 1.2L
The final volume of the gas is 1.2L
90 grams of glucose, C6H12O6, is dissolved in 2 liters of solution. Determine the molarity (M).
Answer:
0.25 M
Explanation:
The first step is to determine how many moles of glucose there are, which means first finding out the molar mass of glucose. Carbon has a molar mass of about 12, hydrogen 1, and oxygen 16, so the total molar mass of glucose is about 6(12)+12(1)+6(16)=180 grams. This means that 90 grams is half a mole. Half a mole of substance divided by two liters of solution is (1/2)/2=1/4, or a molarity of 0.25. Hope this helps!

if I have 22.1 grams of CO2 gas at -188 degrees Celsius and 165 ml what is the pressure of the gas in kPa
Answer:
P = 2.145kPa
Explanation:
Mass = 22.1g
Molar mass of CO2 = 44g/mol
Vol = 165mL = 0.165L
T = -188°C = (-188 + 273.15)K = 85.15K
R = 8.314J/mol.K
From ideal gas equation,
PV = nRT
P = pressure of the ideal gas
V = volume the gas occupies
n = number of moles if the gas
R = ideal gas constant
T = temperature of the gas
n = number of moles
n = mass / molar mass
n = 22.1 / 44 = 0.50moles
PV = nRT
P = nRT/ V
P = (0.5 × 8.314 × 85.15) / 0.165
P = 2145.26Pa = 2.145kPa
Pressure of the gas is 2.145kPa
What is the molar concentration of a solution that contains 2.4 mol in 175 mL solution?
Answer:
[tex]M = 13.714\,\frac{mol}{L}[/tex]
Explanation:
The molarity is the ratio of moles solute to volume of solution. Then,
[tex]M = \frac{2.4\,mol}{\left(175\,mL\right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{1000}\,\frac{L}{mL} \right)}[/tex]
[tex]M = 13.714\,\frac{mol}{L}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]M=13.7\frac{mol}{L}=13.7M[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we define the molar concentration or widely known as molarity as the ratio of the moles of the solute to the volume of the solution in litres. Thus, for the computation of the molar concentration we make sure we have litres:
[tex]V_{solution}=175mL*\frac{1L}{1000mL} =0.175L[/tex]
Next, we can compute the molarity in mole per litre or just molar units by:
[tex]M=\frac{n_{solute}}{V_{solution}} =\frac{2.4mol}{0.175L} \\\\M=13.7\frac{mol}{L}=13.7M[/tex]

As a result of the interaction of 22 g of higher oxide of the element of the main subgroup of group IV with water, 31 g of acid was formed. Set the name of an unknown chemical element.
Answer:
Carbon (C)
Explanation:
Because the element is the element of the main subgroup of group IV , it has oxidation number +4 in the oxide, and oxide formula is EO2.
reaction:
EO2 + H2O ---> H2EO3
from reaction 1 mol 1 mol 1 mol
31 g acid - 22 g oxide = 9 g water
M(H2O) = 18 g/mol
9g * 1 mol/18 g = 0.5 mol H2O
As we see from reaction molar ratios EO2 : H2O : H2EO3 = 1 : 1 : 1,
so if we have 0.5 mol H2O , we also have 0.5 mol EO2.
0.5 mol EO2 has mass 22 g.
Molar mass(EO2) = mass/ number of moles = 22 g/ 0.5 mol = 44 g/mol
Molar mass (EO2) = M(E) + 2M(O) = 44 g/mol
M(E) + 2 *16 g/mol = 44 g/mo
M(E) = 44-32 = 12 g/mol
Molar mass 12 g/ mol is molar mass of carbon.
So, element is carbon (C).

You are provided with a beaker, wire, two nails, battery, bulb and dilute soultions of HCl, HNO3, alcohol and glucose. How will you identify the acids from the given solutions using the given materials?
Answer:
Acid solutions will be those which lights up a bulb when a circuit is connected through them.
Explanation:
Acid solutions such as HCl and HNO3 are polar in nature and permits the flow of electricity through them. Whereas non-polar solutions like ethanol and glucose solution will not allow the flow of electricity through them.
Therefore, when an electric circuit is completed by dipping the nails connected to a battery and a bulb into the different solutions, the lighting up of the bulb indicates which solutions are acids.
A solution is made by diluting a standard solution by adding 25 mL of the standard solution to 75 mL of distilled water. What is the concentration of the resulting solution?
Answer:
The concentration of the resulting solution is 0.25 or one quarter of the standard solution
Explanation:
Whereby the molar concentration of the standard solution is P molar per liter, we have
25 ml of the standard solution contains
25/1000×P moles of the standard solution such that the resultant solution has a volume of 25 + 75 = 100 ml contains 0.025 P moles of the standard solution
The concentration of a solution is the number of moles contained per liter, which gives
100 ml contains 0.025 P moles
1 liter = 1000 ml will contain 1000/100 × 0.025 = 0.25 P moles of the stanard solution
Therefore, the concentration of the resulting solution is 0.25 or one quarter of the standard solution.

Which of the following shows the solution set to the quadratic equation 8x2+40x=0
Answer:
Option 2
Explanation:
There are many ways to do it. You can also just use your scientific calculator to directly get the answer. But now I'm going to solve the equation by factoring.
8x² + 40x = 0
Factor out 8x from the expression
8x ( x + 5 ) = 0
Divide both sides by 8
8x ( x + 5 ) ÷8 = 0 ÷8
x ( x + 5 ) = 0
Now we have two factors, x & x+5. Set each factors equal to zero
x = 0
x + 5 = 0
Now solve the equation
x = 0
x = -5
Then you get the answer!
Find the pH of HCl with a concentration of 0.00006M
Round to the nearest whole number
Answer:
4.22
Explanation:
pH stands for potential hydrogen. The letter “p” denotes potential and the letter “H” denotes hydrogen.
pH helps to find the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution.
The number of hydrogen ions (protons) present in a solution is determined by the pH scale.
A pH greater than 7 makes the water more alkaline and a pH less than 7 makes the water more acidic.
[tex]pH=-\log [H^+]=-\log [0.00006]=4.22[/tex]
