What forms of energy are involved when snow on a mountain breaks loose, resulting in an avalanche?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>During an avalanche, potential energy of the snow on the mountain is converted to kinetic energy as the snow cascades down. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is due to the compacted atoms in the snow which will accumulate other snow resulting to a bigger snow that causes avalanche.</span>

What periodic trends exist for electronegativity?

Anna007 [38]

The highest electronegativity is in the elements in the top left corner of the periodic table, and the lowest in the bottom right corner. Therefore, traveling up or to the left across the periodic table will increase the electronegativity

H2S (g) + O2(g) -> SO2+ H2O, how many grams of O2 are needed to make 25.0 g of SO2 (Hint: balance the equation first)

vekshin1

Answer:

Hello

The answer is 18,7(b)

Explanation:we don't know the value of o² so at first we should put (x)instead of gr of o²and then write 1molO²/32grO²×2mol SO²/3mol O²×64gr SO²/1molSO²=25 gr SO².and then just find the value of (x).

Explain what helps convert non-rich oxygen blood cells back to oxygen rich cells?

Reil [10]

Answer:

As blood travels through the body, oxygen is used up, and the blood becomes oxygen poor. Oxygen-poor blood returns from the body to the heart through the superior vena cava (SVC) and inferior vena cava (IVC), the two main veins that bring blood back to the heart.
