3 Why is
a) carbon dioxide a good gas for fire extinguishers?
b) liquid nitrogen used to freeze food?
c) argon used in light bulbs?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

for B

Explanation:

Liquid nitrogen is a common tool used in the process of flash freezing due to its extremely low temperatures and cooling properties. The liquefied gas reacts with the food that it comes into contact with and results in the formation of small crystals that solidifies food without affecting taste.

Answer and Explanation:

Well if I listened well in Chemistry class,

a. Carbon dioxide is used as fire extinguisher because carbon dioxide can displace oxygen ( which is one of the major three elemnts that make up fire or also known as the fire triangle ).

Also, carbon dioxide is cold so it can cool down the fuel.

b.Liquid Nitrogen is used in freezing food due to it's cooling properties which creates little crystals around the solid food particles without affecting the taste of the food.

c. The argon prevent filaments from decaying. In incandescent light bulbs , the tungsten filaments produces heat which produces light
