Yes; this process if called nuclear fusion, and an example of it is in the sun. Elements in the sun are combined to create heavier elements in order to provide fuel.

Answer:

I think it's quite simple.

Explanation:

An element is basically a group of similar atoms combined. For example, gold atoms combine to form a gold element (metal).
A compound is the product of the chemical combination of two or more atoms. For example, two Hydrogen atoms and an Oxygen atom combine to form water (a compound).
And a mixture is the product of the physical combination of two or more substances (not chemically combined). For example mixing water and milk powder. I hope it was helpful.

Which statement is true about crystal lattice energy

Arturiano [62]

Hey there!:

1) The additional stability that accompanies the formation of the network<span>Crystalline is measured as network enthalpy.
</span>2) The reticular energy is the energy released when the solid Crystal isform from separate ions in the gaseous state. Always exothermic.<span>
3) </span>The enthalpy of the network depends directly on the size of the loads and conversely in the distance between the ions .

hope this helps!

a 2.7 L of N2 is collected at 121kpa and 288 K . if the pressure increases to 202 kpa and the temperature rises to 303 K , what

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The gas will occupy a volume of 1.702 liters.

Explanation:

Let suppose that the gas behaves ideally. The equation of state for ideal gas is:

$P\cdot V = n\cdot R_{u}\cdot T$ (1)

Where:

$P$ - Pressure, measured in kilopascals.

$V$ - Volume, measured in liters.

$n$ - Molar quantity, measured in moles.

$T$ - Temperature, measured in Kelvin.

$R_{u}$ - Ideal gas constant, measured in kilopascal-liters per mole-Kelvin.

We can simplify the equation by constructing the following relationship:

$\frac{P_{1}\cdot V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}\cdot V_{2}}{T_{2}}$ (2)

Where:

$P_{1}$ , $P_{2}$ - Initial and final pressure, measured in kilopascals.

$V_{1}$ , $V_{2}$ - Initial and final volume, measured in liters.

$T_{1}$ , $T_{2}$ - Initial and final temperature, measured in Kelvin.

If we know that $P_{1} = 121\,kPa$ , $P_{2} = 202\,kPa$ , $V_{1} = 2.7\,L$ , $T_{1} = 288\,K$ and $T_{2} = 303\,K$ , the final volume of the gas is:

$V_{2} = \left(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} \right)\cdot V_{1}$

$V_{2} = 1.702\,L$

The gas will occupy a volume of 1.702 liters.

A sample of a compound is found to contain 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen, and 53.3% oxygen. What is the empirical formula of this

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The empirical formula is CH2O, and the molecular formula is some multiple of this

Explanation:

In 100 g of the unknown, there are 40.0⋅g12.011⋅g⋅mol−1 C; 6.7⋅g1.00794⋅g⋅mol−1 H; and 53.5⋅g16.00⋅g⋅mol−1 O.

We divide thru to get, C:H:O = 3.33:6.65:3.34. When we divide each elemental ratio by the LOWEST number, we get an empirical formula of CH2O, i.e. near enough to WHOLE numbers. Now the molecular formula is always a multiple of the empirical formula; i.e. (EF)n=MF.So 60.0⋅g⋅mol−1=n×(12.011+2×1.00794+16.00)g⋅mol−1.Clearly n=2, and the molecular formula is 2×(CH2O) = CxHyOz.

In the bromination of arenes, which of the following statements regarding the reaction is true?a.The hydrocarbon is used in exce

Olenka [21]

The hydrocarbon is used in excess.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The bromination of an arene is not simple as bromination of an alkane. This is because the carbocation or free radicle formation in benzene is a very energy consuming process. This is why a lewis base like aluminium bromide or ferric bromide is used. The ferric bromide takes in the bromine radicle and forms the brominium cation which helps in the formation of electrophile. Now this electrophile brominium cation attacks the benzene ring and forms a temporary sp3 hybrid carbon intermediate. Then the hydrogen is taken by the FeBr4- forming HBr and regenerating the FeBr3 as well as Aromaticity of the arene species at the same time. Here hydrocarbon is used in excess just to prevent the chances of multiple substitution in the same arene molecule.
