When sodium chloride is molten:
NaCl ------> Na⁺ +Cl⁻
Anod (+)                                           |             Cathode (-)
2Cl⁻-2e⁻ ---> Cl2(gas)                     |          Na⁺ + e⁻ -----> Na⁰(s)

How do we turn petroleum into energy we use?
arlik [135]

You don't "turn" it into energy; petroleum HAS stored energy (chemical energy).However, you can turn it into ANOTHER TYPE OF ENERGY; usually this is done by burning the petroleum, and using it to drive machinery.

Since burning fuels is wasteful (the efficiency is limited, in theory, to the Carnot efficiency of a heat engine), other options are being explored, such as chemical reactions in a fuel cell. But such technology is not yet used on a large scale.

Starting with lead (ii) carbonate describe how a solid sample of lead (ii) sulphate can be prepared
tatuchka [14]

The preparation of lead (ii) sulphate from lead (ii) carbonate occurs in two steps:

  1. insoluble lead carbonate is converted to soluble lead (ii) nitrate
  2. soluble lead (ii) nitrate is reacted with sulphuric acid to produce lead (ii) sulphate.

<h3>How can a  solid sample of lead (ii) sulphate be prepared from lead (ii) carbonate?</h3>

Lead (ii) carbonate and  lead (ii) sulphate are both insoluble salts of lead.

In order to prepare lead (ii) sulphate, a two step process is performed.

In the first step, Lead (ii) carbonate is reacted with dilute trioxonitrate (v) acid to produce lead (ii) nitrate.

  • PbCO₃ + 2HNO₃ → Pb(NO₃)₂ + CO₂ + H₂O

In the second step, dilute sulfuric acid is reacted with the lead (ii) nitrate to produce insoluble lead (ii) sulphate which is filtered and dried.

  • Pb(NO₃)₂ + H₂SO₄  →  PbSO₄ + 2HNO₃

In conclusion, lead (ii) sulphate is prepared in two steps.

Imagine a moving boat making waves in the middle of a pool of water. Also, imagine two observers, one behind the boat and one in
Simora [160]
The person who is behind the boat will see much powerful and bigger waves than the person who is in front of the boat. This phenomenon is caused by the Doppler effect which describes the changes in the observed frequency of a wave whenever there is relative motion between the wave source and the observer.

<h3>What is Manometer ?</h3>

Manometer is a U shaped instrument which is used to measure the pressure acting on a column of fluid , a difference in the pressure  in the two arms of the manometer causes the liquid to reach different heights.

The difference  in the heights of the Hg columns in Diagram B is17 mm-Hg.

the atmospheric pressure is 769 mm-Hg,

the pressure of the confined gas in mm-Hg = ?

The pressure of the confined gas will be 769-17 = 752 mmHg
