Answer:
Electric engines have efficiencies of roughly 90% whilst combustion engines about 10% to 30%. This is because combustion engines emit much more heat, which is always energy that is not used as work, and thus increases inefficiency.

Matter is a slightly archaic word for something with mass, as in the conservation of matter (which must be paired with the conservation of energy to still hold true. Mass can be converted back and forth between energy, so therefore so can matter. Of course relativistic mass is conserved as it's a function of the energy of an object in that reference frame.
Answer:
The combined gas law is formulated from PV/T =K.
Explanation:
The combined gas law comprises of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay lusaac's law. This laws were not discovered but simply put together considering other cases of ideal gas law. It states that if the amount of gas is left unchanged, the ratio between the pressure, volume, and temperature is constant.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.
Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.
Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
