What causes surface tension under water

Chemistry
1 answer:
RSB [31]2 years ago
4 0
Surface tension under water results from greater attraction of liquid molecules to each other, due to a process called cohesion, than to molecules in the air, due to a process called adhesion.

Glucose, c6h12o6, is used as an energy source by the human body. the overall reaction in the body is described by the equation
Art [367]
Glucose is carbohydrate and a simple sugar that is very important to the human body.

Energy is produced for the cells in the body through the process of metabolism which oxidizes glucose to water, carbon dioxide, and some nitrogen compounds. 

The general chemical reaction equation for metabolism is:
 
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O

For the reaction N2O4(g) ⇋ 2NO2(g), Kc = 0.25 at 98°C. At a point during the reaction, the concentration of N2O4 = 0.50 M and th
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Q = 0.50

No

Left

Explanation:

At a generic reversible equation

aA + bB ⇄ cC + dD

The reaction coefficient (Q) is the ratio of the substances concentrations:

Q = \frac{[C]^c*[D]^d}{[A]^a*[B]^b}

Solids and liquid water are not considered in this calculus.

When the reaction achieves equilibrium (concentrations are constant), the Q value is named as Kc, which is the equilibrium constant of the reaction. If Q > Kc, it indicates that the concentration of the products is higher, so, the reaction must progress to the left and form more reactants; if Q < Kc, than the concentrations of the reactants, are higher, so, the reaction progress to the right.

In this case:

Q = \frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}

Q = \frac{0.50^2}{0.50}

Q = 0.50

So, Q > Kc, the reaction is not at equilibrium and it progresses to the left.

Assume that your electrical power company gets its energy from a hydroelectric dam. Outline all of the energy changes that occur
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

This isn't chemistry. Its physics. Kinetic energy (water) to electric energy (dam) as the hydroelectric dam works. Then, as the current travels from the plant to your crib, electric energy to heat energy (wire resistance). Then when you are using the dryer electric energy to heat energy (hot air) and sound energy (air particles vibrate due to the heat energy).

what is the total amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from each atom in a mole of gaseous Ca
Temka [501]

Answer:

589.8 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the process in which <em>the most loosely bound electron from each atom in a mole atom of gaseous calcium is removed.</em>

Ca(g) + Energy ⇒ Ca¹⁺(g) + 1 e⁻

The energy involved in this process is known as First Ionization Energy. The First Ionization Energy for calcium is 589.8 kJ/mol.
