The energy needed to destabilize existing chemical bonds and start a chemical reaction is called ____.

1 answer:

3 0

If all chemical reactions that release free energy tend to occur spontaneously,why haven't all such reactions already occurred? One reason is that most reactions require an input of energy to get started.Before it is possible to form new chemical bonds,even bonds that contain less energy,it is first necessary to break the existing bonds,and that takes energy.The extra energy required to destabilize existing chemical bonds and initiate a chemical reaction is called activation energy.

Answer:

Q=mcΔT

Explanation:

The formula for expressing the amount of heat transferred between energy stores is given by the equation. The specific heat capacity of water is 4180 J/kgoC (Joules per kilogram per degree), this means it takes 4180 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1oC.

Which of these charges has the greatest magnitude

Natalka [10]

Answer:

magnitude means absolute value, so the one that is greastest, like |-7| and |4| even id |-7| is a negative number, but it is still the one farthest away from 0, so |-7| is greater than |4|.

That is the way to find the greatest magnitude, but because I don't know your numbers so I can not answer your question, but this is the way to solve for it.
