Which of the following is NOT a method of transferring heat?
Eva8 [605]
The answer is Reduction. All three methods (convection, radiation, and conduction) are all ways of transferring heat. Convection is the transfer of heat by means of a medium such as air. Conduction is the transfer of heat from the contact of two surfaces at different temperatures. Radiation is the transfer of heat via electromagnetic waves.

Reduction is a chemical reaction that involves the gain of electrons. It is the opposite of oxidation which involves the loss of electrons.

In each of the three reactions between NaOH and HCl, the sign of q for the water was positive. This means the the sign of q for
Talja [164]

Answer:

This means the the sign of q for the reaction was _NEGATIVE _____ and the reaction was _EXOTHERMIC_____.

Explanation:

In calorimetry, when heat is absorbed by the solution, the q-value of the solution will have a positive value. This means that the reaction will produce heat for the solution to absorb and thus the q-value for the reaction will be negative. This is an exothermic reaction.

Whereas, when heat is absorbed from the solution, the q-value for the solution will have a negative value. This means that the reaction will absorb heat from the solution and so the reaction is endothermic, and q value for the reaction is positive.

So, from the question, since the q-value of water is positive, it means that heat is absorbed by the solution and the reaction will produce a negative value of q and it's an exothermic reaction because the reaction produces heat for the solution.

For complete combustion of an organic compound needs 8 molecules of oxygen, what could the formula of this compound be?
Llana [10]

Answer:

C5H12.

Explanation:

The compound will be C5H12.

Now consider the general formula for the combustion of an alkane;

CnH2n+2 + 3n+1/2O2-----> nCO2 + (n+1) H2O

If we substitute n=5, we have;

C5H12 + 8O2-----> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Hence the answer above.
