Therefore the loss (transfer) of this potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy
Explanation:
First remember that energy is not destroyed, it only transpires
There are different types of energy, an example of different types of energy is the heat energy (the one that is transferred from an object that is hotter to another, or also by friction), the gravitational potential energy (increases when the height of an object increases with respect to the zero point) another example would be the kinetic energy (increases with increasing the speed of an object)
When object "loses" energy is really transforming into another type of energy
While an object falls and loses its potential energy (it loses height) it increases its speed (it falls faster and faster), as its speed increases the kinetic energy increases
Therefore the loss (transfer) of this potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy
First, we calculate the moles of methane present using: Moles = mass / molecular mass Moles = 20 / 16 Moles = 1.25
Next, we may observe from the chemical equation that the molar ratio between methane and oxygen is 1 : 2 So the moles of oxygen required are 2 x 1.25 2.5 moles of oxygen required
Mass = moles * molecular mass Mass = 2.5 * 32 Moles = 80
Once one shell is full, the next electron that is added has to move to the next shell. So... for the element of NEON, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 10 electrons in a neon atom.
Since the substance absorbs heat, it is expected that the temperature will rise. The formula for the internal energy of a substance is given by the equation:
ΔU = mCpΔT
where:
ΔU = internal energy m = mass of substance Cp = specific heat capacity of substance ΔT = change in temperature
