What are two variables that affect kinetic energy

Chemistry
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago
7 0

The answer for the following questions is explained below.

Explanation:

The two variables that affect kinetic energy are:

  1. mass    and
  2. velocity

  • velocity - The faster an object moves,the more the kinetic energy it has.
  • mass - Kinetic energy increases as mass increases

The kinetic energy of an object depends on both its mass and its velocity

Kinetic energy increases as mass increases

For example,think about rolling a bowling ball and a golf ball down a bowling lane at same velocity

Here,the bowling ball has more mass than the golf ball

Therefore you use more energy to roll the bowling ball than to roll the golf ball

The bowling ball is more likely to knock down the pins because it has more kinetic energy than the golf ball

SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

NH_4 will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-     ( × 4)

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O   ( × 6)

<u>Overall reaction:</u> 4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O

We are given:

Molecules of NH_4 = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of NH_4 reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of NH_4 will react with = \frac{6}{4}\times 28=42 molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules
