Oxy-fuel cutting uses acetylene and oxygen to preheat metal to red hot and then uses pure oxygen to burn away the preheated metal. Acetylene, which is used in the oxy-fuel process becomes extremely dangerous if it is used at pressures above 15 pounds per square inch.

Why nickel forms complex with DMG to give bright red precipitate only in colorimetric or gravimetric estimation of nickel?

Because,(i) Ni(II) have d8 electronic configuration, which strongly favors square-planar complex formation;and dmg on loosing one acidic proton favors the square-planar arrangement makes the formation of [Ni(dmg)] complex favorable (ii) Because d8 configuration is stabilized most in square-planar geometry (due to high CFSE) the formation of complex becomes more favorable which adds to the driving force of the complex formation.


How is the effusion rate of gas related to its molar mass?

A process related to diffusion is effusion, the process by which a gas escapes from a container into a vacuum through a small hole. The rate of effusion is also related to root mean square velocity-heavier molecules effuse more slowly than lighter ones. The rate of effusion-the amount of gas that effused in a given time- is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas.


What shape would you expect forXeF4?

square planar


What is berry pseudo rotation?

Example of Fluxionality, where a molecule undergoes rapid intramolecular rearranging. A example of the Berry Pseudo rotation is in such fluxional molecules where axial atoms exchange with equatorial atoms. Good example is in the molecule of PF5, through rapid exchange the Trigonal bipyramid becomes a square based pyramid and then again back to a trigional bipyramid


What is the molecular shape of XeF4?

The molecular shape of XeF4, or xenon tetrafluoride, is square planar. Its molecules are located in a square's corners around an atom in the center in a single place.

If you fold a square piece of paper in half 5 times how many squares would you have?

The last fold will be ineffective in making squares. If you fold a square in half it becomes two rectangles - one on top of the other. This "square" (pardon me, but the site doesn't do accurate 'drawing') shows the folding process. |--------------------------------| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |........................................| |--------------------------------| when folded back, becomes |----------------| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |----------------| and when that is folded upwards, it becomes four squares |----------------| |....................| |....................| |....................| |....................| |----------------| The third fold makes eight rectangles.... |--------| |..........| |..........| |..........| |..........| |--------| And the fourth fold makes sixteen squares... |--------| |..........| |..........| |--------| Another fold - a fifth - would bring us back to rectangles again.
