C. the energry required to break existing chemical bonds
Vsevolod [243]4 years ago
3 0
Activation energy is the term coined by the Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius on 1889. The term is used to refer or describe the minimum energy which must be available for the system of chemicals to have a chemical reaction. Hence, the answer to the question is letter "C. It is the energy required to break existing chemical bonds".

A balloon, whose volume at 23°C is 535 mL, is heated to 46°C. Assuming the pressure and amount of gas remain constant, what is t
NikAS [45]
This problem requires a certain equation.  That equation is V1/T1=V2/T2, where V1 is your initial volume (535 mL in this case), T1 is your initial temperature in Kelvin(23 degrees C = 296 K), V2 is your final volume (unknown), and T2 is your final temperature (46 degrees C = 319 K). By plugging in these values, the equation looks like this: 535/296=V2/319.  Now multiply both sides of the equation by 319, and your final answer is V2= 576.6 mL

finlep [7]

Answer:

Luiquid

Explanation:

The atoms in a liquid state of matter have a definite volume, eventhough they acquire the shape of the container that contains them, the volume will always be the same, while in a solid the shape and volume will remain constant, on the other hand for a gas, the substance will fill the container where it is, having different volumes.

Aluminum is manufactured using electrolysis. Carbon electrodes are used. Describe the nature of the electrolyte.​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The traditional electrolyte for aluminium electrolysis is based on molten cryolite (Na3AlF6), acting as solvent for the raw material, alumina (Al2O3).Metals are found in ores combined with other elements. Electrolysis can be used to extract a more reactive metal from the ore.

Aluminum can and is used as both anodes and cathodes in electrochemical cells, but there are some peculiarities to using it as an anode in aqueous solutions. As you note, aluminum forms a passivating oxide layer quite readily, even by exposure to atmosphere. In an aqueous solution, if the potential is high enough, OH− and O2− are generated at the anode, which can then react with the aluminum to produce aluminum oxide. Al^3+ can also be generated directly. The electric field will draw the anions through the growing aluminum oxide layer towards the aluminum surface and the Al^3+ towards the solution, making the oxide layer grow both away from the electrode surface and into the surface of the electrode. In this way, coatings thicker than the normal passivation in air can be produced. However, aluminum oxide is a good electrical insulator, thus if a dense non-porous layer is grown, it will become impossible to pass current through it and growth will stop, leaving a relatively thin oxide layer (this is how the dielectric layers in electrolytic capacitors are made). This is the normal behaviour in aqueous solutions at near-neutral pH (5–7).

However, if a thick aluminum oxide layer is desired (e.g. to produce coatings on aluminum parts for dying or durability), maintaining porosity is necessary to avoid completely blocking access to the surface. One technique that is commonly used is using a low pH solution, which tends to redissolve some of the oxide and neutralize some of the formed OH−, leaving pores in the oxide layer through which the ions can travel and continue to react. These pores also give a good structure to retain dyes or lubricants, but generally need to be sealed after to protect against corrosion.

Which of the following terms describes an accumulation of rocky, sandy, or clayey material deposited at the end of a glacier?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

<u>Eskers are the long ridges that are comprised of rocks, sands and clay particles and are deposited towards the end of the glaciers</u>. These are fluvioglacial depositional features. These particles are exposed after the glaciers recede. These ridges are formed parallel to the earlier flow direction of ice. The size of eskers is generally smaller as it carries smaller particles such as rocks, sands, and gravels, in comparison to the different type of moraines. It is because the flow velocity decreases as the glaciers melt. So, these eskers are formed at the end of the glaciers.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
