Carbon dioxide is one of the gases in our atmosphere, which is uniformly distributed over the Earth's surface.
-
CO
-
CO2
-
C2O2
-
COS
Correct Answer
A. CO2Explanation
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the gases present in the Earth's atmosphere. It is uniformly distributed over the Earth's surface, meaning it is spread out evenly in the air. The other options mentioned (CO, C2O2, COS) are not correct because they do not represent carbon dioxide.Rate this question:

Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizer commonly used as a bleach. It is the simplest peroxide (a compound with an oxygen-oxygen single bond). Hydrogen peroxide is a clear liquid, slightly more viscous than water, that appears colorless in dilute solution. It is used as a disinfectant, antiseptic, oxidizer, and in rocketry as a propellant.
-
HPO
-
HPOX
-
H2O
-
H2O2
Correct Answer
A. H2O2Explanation
Hydrogen peroxide is a compound with the chemical formula H2O2. It is the correct answer because it matches the description given in the question. Hydrogen peroxide is commonly used as a bleach and is a clear liquid that appears colorless in dilute solution. It is also used as a disinfectant, antiseptic, oxidizer, and in rocketry as a propellant. The other options listed (HPO, HPOX, H2O) do not match the description of hydrogen peroxide.Rate this question:

Methane is the simplest alkane, and the principal component of natural gas. Burning methane in the presence of oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water. The relative abundance of methane makes it an attractive fuel. However, because it is a gas at normal temperature and pressure, methane is difficult to transport from its source. It is generally transported in bulk by pipeline in its natural gas form.
-
Me3
-
MeTh2
-
CH4
-
C2H5
Correct Answer
A. CH4Explanation
Methane, represented by the chemical formula CH4, is the correct answer. It is the simplest alkane and the main component of natural gas. When methane is burned in the presence of oxygen, it produces carbon dioxide and water. Methane is abundant and is considered an attractive fuel. However, due to its gaseous state at normal temperature and pressure, it is challenging to transport. It is typically transported in bulk through pipelines in its natural gas form.Rate this question:

Propane is a three-carbon alkane, typically a gas, but compressible to a transportable liquid. A by-product of natural gas processing and petroleum refining, it is commonly used as a fuel for engines, oxy-gas torches, barbecues, portable stoves, and residential central heating.
-
P2rO3
-
C3H5
-
C3H8
-
HC3
Correct Answer
A. C3H8Explanation
Propane (C3H8) is a correct answer because it is a three-carbon alkane, as mentioned in the provided information. It is typically a gas but can be compressed into a liquid form for transportation. Propane is a by-product of natural gas processing and petroleum refining and is commonly used as a fuel for engines, torches, barbecues, portable stoves, and residential central heating.Rate this question:

Fructose, or fruit sugar, is a simple monosaccharide found in many foods. It is one of the three essential dietary monosaccharides, along with glucose and galactose. Honey, tree fruits, berries, melons, and some root vegetables contain significant amounts of molecular fructose, usually combined with glucose, stored in the form of sucrose. About 240,000 tonnes of crystalline fructose are produced annually.
