In the "Fire Syringe" demonstration, what causes the cotton inside the syringe to reach a high enough temperature to ignite. O The compression of the air in the syringe causes the temperature to increase to the point of combustion. There is a match in the syringe that the plunger triggers. Magic. O The compression of the air in the syringe causes the pressure to drop to the point that the cotton ignites.

Which would cause a more serious burn: 30 g of steam or 30 g of liquid water, both at 100 °C; and why is this so? O Water, because its specific heat is greater than that of steam. O Steam, because of its specific heat capacity. O Water, because it is denser than steam. O Steam, because of its latent heat of vaporization. O Either one would cause a burn of the same severity since they are both at the same temperature.
