If a reaction is exothermic, then which of the following statements is always true? If a reaction is exothermic, then which of t

he following statements is always true? The products have lower potential energy than the reactants. Energy must be added for the reaction to proceed. The products have lower entropy (are more ordered) than the reactants. It occurs extremely quickly.

Explanation:

Reactants ⇒ product + heat (exothermic reaction) ....(1)

We have given that the reaction is exothermic, so the heat is rejected from the reaction. We know that heat is the form of energy.

From equation (1)

from the given equation we can see that reactants have more energy than products.

So the reactants have higher potential energy in comparison to the products.

Arisa [49]
The people of Florida are closest to the equator and also near 2 different bodies of water and have rivers running thru them as well salt water and fresh water. they need alot of freshwater due to monsoon seasons, hurricanes etc, its humid and hot there so naturally you need to water more often and frequently.

An inventor develops a stationary cycling device by which an individual, while pedaling, can convert all of the energy expended
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Emec = 94050 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must understand that all thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy.

The thermal energy can be calculated by means of the following expression.

Q=m*C_{p}*(T_{final}-T_{initial})

where:

Q = heat [J]

Cp = specific heat of water = 4186 [J/kg*°C]

m = mass = 300 [g] = 0.3 [kg]

T_final = 95 [°C]

T_initial = 20 [°C]

Now we can calculate the heat, replacing the given values:

Q=0.3*4180*(95-20)\\Q= 94050[J]

Since all this energy must come from the mechanical energy delivered by the exercise bike, and no energy is lost during the process, the mechanical energy must be equal to the thermal energy.

Q=E_{mec}\\E_{mec}=94050[J]

Betty weighs 420 n and she is sitting on a playground swing seat that hangs 0.40 m above the ground. tom pulls the swing back an
Svet_ta [14]
Weight = mass * gravity
420 = mass * 9.8
mass of Betty = 42.857 kg

Difference in height = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55 meters

Total energy = Kinetic energy + potential energy

At the highest point, the kinetic energy is zero while the potential energy is maximum, therefore, we can get the total energy as follows:
Total energy = 0 + mgh
Total energy = 42.857*9.8*0.55 = 231 Joules

At the lowest point, the potential energy is zero while the kinetic energy is maximum. Therefore:
Total energy = 0.5 * m * (v)^2 + 0
231 = 0.5 * (42.857) * (velocity)^2
(velocity)^2 = 10.78
velocity = 3.28 meters/sec
