Why do older people get Klebsiella?

Older people are more prone to Klebsiella infections due to weakened immune systems and underlying health conditions that make them more susceptible to bacterial infections. Age-related changes in the immune system can make older adults less able to fight off pathogens like Klebsiella. Additionally, factors such as chronic diseases, prolonged hospital stays, and long-term antibiotic use can also increase the risk of Klebsiella infections in older individuals.


When a metal pan is heated on the stove what is it?

All stove flames are hotter than you would expect any pan to normally be so there is a temperature gradient between the flame and the pan. Heat is transferred from the hot gasses of the flame to the pan by two mechanisms: convective heat transfer and radiant heat transfer. Note that the hotter the flame, the more significant the radiant heat transfer becomes.


What compound does not decompose when it is heated with a Bunsen burner?

Silicon dioxide (SiO2), commonly known as quartz, does not decompose when heated with a Bunsen burner. This is because SiO2 has a very high melting point, around 1,710°C, which is above the typical temperature of a Bunsen burner flame. Instead of decomposing, it stays solid and retains its structure.

Why does your gas water heater flame go out as soon as it lights. My pilot stays lit. Is this a bad T-Stat or gas valve?

sounds like you have a bad thermocouple. The thermocouple senses the pilot flame and produces voltage to tell main flame to light. Thermocouple can be bought at any hardware store.


What is the function of the flame sensor on a furnace and how does it contribute to the safe and efficient operation of the heating system?

The flame sensor on a furnace detects the presence of a flame when the burner is ignited. It ensures that the burner stays lit and shuts off the gas supply if no flame is detected, preventing gas leaks and potential hazards. This contributes to the safe and efficient operation of the heating system by ensuring that the furnace operates properly and does not pose a risk of fire or gas leaks.


What The Pilot ignites?

The pilot light is a small flame which stays on all the time (as in older water heaters for example). When the water temperature drops below the thermostat setting, the main heating gas is turned on and the pilot light ignites it. There are many other uses for pilot lights. To conserve gas, modern water heaters generate a spark to light the gas.
