. The anaerobic decomposition of organic matter (including wastes) produces a mixture of carbon dioxide and methane, e. g. C6H12O6  3 CO2 + 3 CH4. (a) Since CO2 has no fuel value, suggest an easy method for separating the two gaseous products of this reaction. (b) Imagine a landfill that contains both waste paper (which you can assume to be cellulose) and waste cooking oils or fats (which you can assume to be stearin). Both undergo anaerobic decomposition. Which of these two wastes would produce gas with the higher CH4/CO2 ratio, and by what factor?

Listen base your answer to the question on the information below.propane is a fuel that is sold in rigid, pressurized cylinders. most of the propane in a cylinder is liquid, with gas in the space above the liquid level. when propane is released from the cylinder, the propane leaves the cylinder as a gas. propane gas is used as a fuel by mixing it with oxygen in the air and igniting the mixture, as represented by the balanced equation below.c3h8(g) + 5o2(g) → 3co2(g) + 4h2o() + 2219.2 kja small amount of methanethiol, which has a distinct odor, is added to the propane to consumers detect a propane leak. in methanethiol, the odor is caused by the thiol functional group (–sh). methanethiol, ch3sh, has a structure that is very similar to the structure of methanol.what is the correct structural formula for a molecule of methanethiol

Consider hydrogen in an excited state n = 5n=5 that emits photons to reach the ground state. there are various possible transitions other than straight to the ground state that can occur; for example, it can drop to the n = 3n=3 state followed by the n = 3n=3 to the ground state transition. which of the possible transitions will result in the emission of a photon in the visible region?
