D. All of the answers are true
CH4+(x)O2=CO2 +(Y)H2O
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=2+? +H=?
H=4>>Y=2
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=(2+2) +H=4
C=1 +H=4 +O=4 = C=1 +O=4 +H=4
O=4>>X=2
CH4+(2)O2 =CO2 +(2)H2O
Explanation:
Whenever we need to make a dilute solution of an acid then it is necessary to add water or non-acidic component into the acid first. This is because addition of water or non-acidic component directly into the acid could be highly exothermic in nature.
As a result, the acid can splutter and can cause burning of skin and other serious damage.
So, in order to avoid such type of damage the addition of water or non-acidic component into the acid actually helps to minimize the heat generated.
Thus, we can conclude that correct order of steps for making a more dilute solution of an acid is that either add all of the water or non-acid component first, or add a significant portion, before adding the acid to the mixture.
Answer: the reliability will be worse
Explanation:
Suppose we used 0.5 M NaOH to titrate our vinegar sample instead of 0.1 M.
Now by using 0.5M instead of 0.1M we are increasing the concentration of NaOH,
We know that the moles used = Volume x concnetration.
so for the same no of moles, if the concentration increases, the volume decreases.
Hence it will consume less NaOH.
now Since the volume decreases, the titration volume of less number will increase the % error.
Therefore the reliability will be worse.
