Answer:

<h2>The coefficient of the diatomic oxygen has to be 2.</h2>

Explanation:

The balanced reaction should be like this: 2O_{2} + CH_{4} = CO_{2} + 2H_{2}O

So, as you can see, balance mean that molecules in the reaction has to be equal, the amount of element involved has to be the same, due to the Conservation of the Mass Law.

So, Hydrogen and Oxygen are not balanced in the given expression, that's why we need to add those coefficients.

To break the oxygen-oxygen bonds in a single O2 molecule, 1 × 10–18 J of energy is required. Which of the following wavelengths
Sonbull [250]

E = hc/(lamda)

The lamda symbol is wavelength, which this site does not have. I can represent it with an "x" instead.

Plancks constant, h = 6.626×10^-32 J·s

Speed of light, c = 3.00×10^8 m/s

The energy must be greater than or equal to 1×10^-18 J

1×10^-18 J ≤ (6.626×10^-32 J·s)*(3.0×10^8 m/s) / x

x ≤ (6.626×10^-32 J·s)*(3.0×10^8 m/s) / (1×10^-18 J)

x ≤ 1.99×10^-7 m or 199 nm

The wavelength of light must be greater than or equal to 199 nm

4. Energy can be conserved by -
mart [117]

Energy can be conserved by efficient energy use.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy can be transferred from one form to another, but it cannot be destroyed or created. So it can be conserved if efficiently used. Thus efficient usage of energy lead to conservation of energy. Due to conservation of energy, the forces can be renewable and non-renewable.

So, we should know how the input energy can be completely converted to another form of energy leading to efficient usage of energy without any loss. As if there is no loss, input energy will be equal to output energy leading to 100% efficiency.
