Energy and Temperature Activity Worksheet

Chemistry
1 answer:
notka56 [123]1 year ago
5 0

Land surfaces are much darker so they absorb much more solar radiation than water. Most of the solar radiation is reflected by water which leads in reflecting the solar radiation that reaches the surface back in to the atmosphere.

How does this occur?

Due to lower specific heat of sand it heats up faster than water. On the other hand water requires one calorie of energy to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. Sand takes 19 calories per gram to raise the temperature of the sand by 1 degree Celsius.  While Sand requires fewer calories to raise its temperature one degree Celsius and that’s why it heats up faster than water.

Land absorbs more solar radiation the land surface retains more heat as do the vegetation for energy.

Therefore, during this experiment the sand heats up much faster than water. This happens because of the specific heat of the sand that initiates the heating rapidly under the lamp as the time passes.

How do you calculate the number of neutrons???? please help
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons is equal to the difference between the mass number of the atom (M) and the atomic number (Z).

Which one is a true statement about endothermic reactions? A. I need you from an outside source is continuously being added. B.
tekilochka [14]
Correct answer: "A. Energy from an outside source is continuously being added."
An endothermic reaction is a reaction that is characterised by the system absorbing energy from its surroundings. That energy is usually in heat form. For example, when mixing water<span> with potassium chloride, this reaction will absorb heat and the container will feel cold - endothermic reaction.</span>

2.93 mol of MgF2 to grams
mojhsa [17]

The mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride is 107 grams.

To determine the mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride, we first need the chemical formula of magnesium fluoride. Magnesium forms a +2 ion (Mg+2) and fluoride forms a -1 ion (F-1). Since all compounds formed from ions have to be electrically neutral, we need 2 fluoride ions and 1 magnesium ion. Therefore, the formula for magnesium fluoride is MgF2.

Now we need to determine the molar mass of the compound from the molar mass values from the periodic table. Let's use a table to calculate this molar mass.

Molar mass of MgF2

Element Molar Mass (g/mol) Quantity Total (g/mol)

Mg 24.31 1 24.31

F 19.00 2 38.00

Total molar mass of MgF2 = 24.31 g/mol + 38.00 g/mol = 62.31 g/mol

This is the mass of one mole of the substance. If we have 1.72 mols of it, we multiply 1.72 by 62.31.

1.72 mol (62.31 g/mol) = 107 grams

We rounded to 107 to keep the correct number of significant digits in our answer.

Why can’t an atom lose or gain a proton
Veronika [31]

Explanation:

Atoms never gain protons; they become positively charge only by losing electrons. A positive ion is called a cation (pronounced: CAT-eye-on). You may have notice that the number of neutrons in each of these ions was not specified.
