Answer:

The energy released from food was once energy from the sun that was captured by plants in the chemical process that forms plant matter (from air and water). Food provides animals with the materials they need for body repair and growth and the energy they need to maintain body warmth and for motion.

True or false. Gas particles never touch each other.

Sati [7]

Answer:

False. In a gas, particles are in continual straight-line motion. The kinetic energy of the molecule is greater than the attractive force between them, thus they are much farther apart and move freely of each other.

The following reaction shows sodium carbonate reacting with calcium hydroxide.

velikii [3]

Ans: 15.1 grams

Given reaction:

Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2NaOH + CaCO3

Mass of Na2CO3 = 20.0 g

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 105.985 g/mol

# moles of Na2CO3 = 20/105.985 = 0.1887 moles

Based on the reaction stoichiometry: 1 mole of Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaOH

# moles of NaOH produced = 0.1887*2 = 0.3774 moles

Molar mass of NaOH = 22.989 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.996 g/mol

Mass of NaOH produced = 0.3774*39.996 = 15.09 grams

Which factor is generally responsible for high melting points?

vlabodo [156]

A. High intermolecular forces of attraction. If there are high intermolecular forces, the molecules will need large energies to escape into the liquid. The substance will nave a high melting point.

The other options are incorrect because they are weak forces. They would cause low melting points.

An alloy of bronze is manufactured by melting 51.2 g of copper with 6.84 g of tin. What is the percent copper in the bronze?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Percentage of copper = 88%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper = 51.2 g

Mass of tin = 6.84 g

Percentage of copper = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percentage of copper = mass of copper / total mass × 100

Now we will determine the total mass:

Total mass = mass of copper + mass of tin

Total mass = 51.2 g + 6.84 g

Total mass = 58.04 g

Now we will calculate the percentage of copper.

Percentage of copper = 51.2 g / 58.04 g × 100

Percentage of copper = 0.88 × 100

Percentage of copper = 88%

The electron configurations of two unknown elements x and y are shown. X: 1s2 2s2 2p6 Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 Which statement is

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable

Explanation:

The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :

X: 1s2 2s2 2p6

Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.

To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X can gain 2 atoms to become stable.

Element Y can also react as it can also share two atoms to fulfill its 3p orbital and will stable.

Hence, the correct option is "B".
