Question
Chapter 20, Problem 33PS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The statement which is not a limitation for the use of hydrogen as a fuel should be identified.
Concept introduction:
The major problem facing by human beings is the crisis of diminishing the energy sources. The amount of fossil fuel has decreased rapidly so that an alternative fuel supply should be found out. Hydrogen came out to be a better option for this crisis.
Hydrogen economy: The process of producing, storing and using of hydrogen as a fuel
In automobile industry gasoline may be replaced by hydrogen and it act as natural gas too.

As an antacid for gastric hyperacidity, calcium carbonate reacts by combining with hydrochloric acid found in the stomach, producing a solution of calcium chloride, converting the stomach acid to water, and releasing carbon dioxide gas (which the person suffering from stomach problems may feel as a “burp”). Write the unbalanced chemical equation for this process.arrow_forwardFollow the directions of Question 29 for the following compounds: (a) solid ammonium nitrate (b) liquid methyl alcohol (c) solid copper(II) sulfidearrow_forward
