What is the correct energy transformation in a hydropower dam?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Gravitational to Mechanical to electrical

Explanation:

In a hydropower dam, the gravitational potential energy is converted to mechanical energy which in turn produces electrical energy.

  • The gravitational potential energy is due to the water overhead and the position of water inside the dam.
  • The height and quantity of water determines the magnitude of the gravitational potential energy.
  • Then, this energy is released when it falls on turbines and it drives them.
  • As the turbine moves, mechanical energy is produced.
  • The turbine is connected through a dynamo which produces a electric current by the turning action.

Balance the following skeleton reaction and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents: Include the states of all reactants and
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

4Zn_(_s_)~+~7OH^-~_(_a_q_)~+~NO_3^-_(_a_q_)~+~6H_2O_(_l_)~-->4Zn(OH)_4^-^2_(_a_q_)~+~NH_3_(_g_)

-) Oxidizing agent: NO_3^-_(_a_q_)

-) Reducing agent: Zn_(_s_)

Explanation:

The first step is separate the reaction into the <u>semireactions</u>:

A.Zn~->Zn(OH)_4^-^2

B.NO_3^-~->~NH_3

If we want to balance in <u>basic medium </u>we have to follow the rules:

1. We adjust the oxygen with OH^-

2. We adjust the H with H_2O

3. We adjust the charge with e^-

Lets balance the first semireaction A. :

Zn~+~4OH^-~->Zn(OH)_4^-^2~+~2e^-

Now, lets balance semireaction B:

NO_3^-~+~8e^-~+~6H_2O~->~NH_3~+~9OH^-

Finally, we have to add the two semireactions:

_________________________________________

8~(Zn~+~4OH^-~->Zn(OH)_4^-^2~+~2e^-)

2~(NO_3^-~+~8e^-~+~6H_2O~->~NH_3~+~9OH^-)

_________________________________________

(8Zn~+~32OH^-~->8Zn(OH)_4^-^2~+~16e^-)

(2NO_3^-~+~16e^-~+~12H_2O~->~2NH_3~+~18OH^-)

Cancel out the species on both sides:

8Zn~+~14OH^-~+~2NO_3^-~+~12H_2O~-->8Zn(OH)_4^-^2~+~2NH_3

Simplifying the equation :

4Zn~+~7OH^-~+~NO_3^-~+~6H_2O~-->4Zn(OH)_4^-^2~+~NH_3

The Zn_(_s_) is <u>oxidized</u> therefefore is the <u>reducing agent</u>. The NO_3^-_(_a_q_)is<u> reduced</u> therefore is the <u>oxidizing agent</u>.
