What is quenching occurs in a chemiluminescence reaction?

I think, the question should by:
When does quenching occur in a chemiluminescence reaction?
Quenching is a process that decreases the fluorescence intensity of any compound while chemiluminescence refers to emission of cold light due to a chemical reaction. Quenching of fluorophore occurs in a chemiluminescence reaction when the fluorescence of the fluorophore is quenched that leads to the decrease in the intensity of the fluorescence.
In terms of energy transfer, quenching occurs when loss of excitation energy of the molecule takes place in a chemiluminescence reaction.

when particles of matter are in direct contact and movement occurs in the substance due to convection, thermal energy transfers

liq [111]

Thermal energy transfers in a solid state, due to convection, in metalic substances.

This is because the covalent bonds between the atoms are being broken and reformed again while the metal is experiencing stress. covalent bonds store energy.

What changes occur in the nuclei of atoms involved in the reactions that fuel nuclear power plants?

Marina CMI [18]

Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two different types of energy-releasing reactions that occur in the nuclei of an atom.
Here are the major differences between the two:

1. To differentiate the two, fission is the splitting of an atom into two or more smaller atoms while fusion is the conjoining or fusion of two or smaller atoms into larger one.

2. Fission does not normally occur in nature while fusion occurs mostly in heavenly bodies such as the stars.

3.Fission produces highly radioactive particles that can be hazardous to both the living things and its habitat or environment while fusion is "clean energy" and "environmental friendly" meaning there are fewer radioactive particles are produced. But if a fission "trigger" is being used, there will be radioactive particles produced.

Among the two nuclear changes, fission is widely used because this reaction produces heat in nuclear reactor. This heat is used to generate steam which operates the turbines to eventually produce electricity.

HELP ASAP! Chemical reactions involving liquids only will be influenced by ALL of the following EXCEPT: a) temperature of the sy

Rom4ik [11]

Chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced by ALL of the following EXCEPT: c) size of reactant particles d) pressure of the system.

Reason:
1) As per Arrhenius theory, rate of chemical reactions is influence by temperature. Mathematically it is expressed as: k = A exp(-Ea/RT)
where, k = rate constant, A = collision frequency, Ea = activation energy, T = temp. From above relation, it can be seen that, chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced temperature.

2) Also, if know that, rates of chemical reactions is mathematically expressed as: $Rate = [A]^{x} B^{y}....$ ,
where A, B, .. are the reactants.
From above relation, it can be seen that, chemical reactions involving only liquids will be influenced concentration i.e. number of particle.

3) However, since all the reactant and catalyst used (if any) is in liquid state, particle size of same will not influence the reaction.

4) Also, since there are no gas-phase reactant, pressure will not affect the reaction.
