The reaction, 2 C4H10 (g) + 13 O2 (g) = 8 CO2 (g) + 5 H2O (g), is the combustion of butane. A combustion reaction involves the reaction of a hydrocarbon with oxygen producing carbon dioxide and water. This reaction is exothermic which means it releases energy in the form of heat. Therefore, as the reaction proceeds,a heat energy is being given off by the reaction. This happens because the total kinetic energy of the reactants is greater than the total kinetic energy of the products. So, the excess energy should be given off somewhere which in this case is released as heat.
Always use this method !!! always
Sound travels in waves and the height of the wave is the loudness of the sound.
To decrease sound, you need to make the waves not so high, so you can
- decrease the amplitude
- decrease the height of the crest (lower the top of the wave down)
- increase the height of the trough (bring the bottom of the wave up)
It's all about getting the wave to be closer to the center, to not be so high and low, but to be flatter.
