When snow melts does its volume decrease or increase?

1 answer:

7 0

The volume of the snow decreases. This had happened because the snow is made up or comprised of water (H2O) and oxygen (O). When the snow starts melting, the air inside the snow discharges into the atmosphere and the water turn out to be a puddle on the ground.

Pis

loris [4]

Answer:

5.00×10-19 J

Explanation:

E = hv

but v = c ÷ wavelength

E = (6.626×10-34) × ((3×10^8)÷(398×10-9))

= 4.9945×10-19

≈5.00×10-19

10. Identify the products in the combustion of methane.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

a. CO2 and H20

Explanation:

Chemically, this combustion process consists of a reaction between methane and oxygen in the air. When this reaction takes place, the result is carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and a great deal of energy. The following reaction represents the combustion of methane:

CH4[g] + 2 O2[g] -> CO2[g] + 2 H2O[g] + energy

One molecule of methane, (the [g] referred to above means it is gaseous form), combined with two oxygen molecules, react to form a carbon dioxide molecule, and two water molecules usually given off as steam or water vapor during the reaction and energy.
