Answer: Chemical energy changes to light and heat energy.

Explanation:

The energy that is found in the wooden log is the chemical energy which is found in the bonds of carbon.

When the wooden log is burnt, the bonds are broken and the energy is converted in the form of light and heat. This is the conversion of chemical energy into heat energy and light energy.

This is also known as combustion in which a hydrocarbon is burnt to produce light and heat and carbon dioxide is released during the process.

Again help. (3)to power negative 3 × (1/3)to power negative 5 ×(1/3) to the power negative 2​
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

3-³ x (1/3)^-5 x (1/3)-²

Applying Indices

3^-3 x (3-¹)^-5 x (3-¹)^-2

When the negative signs interact

they become positive

We now have

3^-3 x 3^5 x 3^2

= 3^-3 x 3^7

=3⁴.

Increasing the temperature increases the vaporization rate of a liquid because the excess energy is used to break covalent bonds
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False.  The molecules of liquid are hold in the liquid state due to intermolecular forces or Van de Waals forces , without affecting the molecule itself and its atomic bonds (covalent bonds).  When the temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher , therefore they have more possibilities to escape from the attractive intermolecular forces and go to the gas state.

Note however that this is caused because the intermolecular forces are really weak compared to covalent bonds, therefore is easier to break the first one first and go to the gas state before any covalent bond breaks ( if it happens).

A temperature increase can increase vaporisation rate if any reaction is triggered that decomposes the liquid into more volatile compounds , but nevertheless, this effect is generally insignificant compared with the effect that temperature has in vaporisation due to Van der Waals forces.

How might the biodiversity of a mowed lawn compare to that of huge weedy field?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: The mowed lawn is the one from where the grasses are removed by using the machines or tools.

Explanation:

The mowed lawn is expected to have low number of species as the grasses may be few or scanty thus can support the population of few species like insects, mice, birds, and small number of grazing animals. On the other hand the weedy field can be hub of insects, reptiles like snakes, small mammals, and large mammals. Large weed field can provide food, and habitat to the large number of species. This will support the increase in biodiversity as compared to the mowed lawn.

If mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2) were reacted to form mercury oxide how many molecules of each reactant and product would be need
dimulka [17.4K]
In order to get HgO you would need 2Hg+1O2=2HgO. Since oxygen is diatomic you need two when it stands alone causing you to need two mercuries to balance out the reactants and the product I hope this helps
