When a substance cools down, is it releasing or absorbing energy?

1 answer:

4 0

When something becomes cold or freezes such as water,it is releasing energy.The temperature continues to decrease more energy is given up and released.It stays a constant temperature as more energy is released to maintain the temperature needed to achieve the correct degree needed.

The orbital radius of Venus is 0.72 AU. What is this distance in kilometers? (One AU is about 150 million kilometers.)

Evgen [1.6K]

The answer is D) 108 million kilometers. To solve this problem, you must perform a simple unit conversion calculation. 1 AU = 150,000,000 km is the conversion factor. Take the radius of Venus, .72 AU, and multiply it by 150,000,000 km/1 AU. You flip the conversion factor so that the units of the original distance in the numerator cancel the units in the denominator of the conversion factor. completing the calculation gives you 108,000,000 km

How many grams of nickel (+2) are required to replace all of the silver when 15.55 grams of AgNO3 are present?

Karolina [17]

2AgNO3 + Ni2+ = Ni(NO3)2 + 2Ag+

From the reaction, it can be seen that AgNO3 and Ni2+ has following amount of substance relationshep:

n(AgNO3):n(Ni)=2:1

From the relationshep we can determinate requred moles of Ni2+:

n(AgNO3)=m/M= 15.5/169.87=0.09 moles

So, n (Ni)=n(AgNO3)/2=0.045 moles

Finaly needed mass of Ni2+ is:

m(Ni2+)=nxM=0,045x58.7=2.64g

Sidana [21]

solution:

$Ta is BCC, a=\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}r},n=2atoms/cell\\p=16.6gram/cm^3,A=180.9gram/mol\\P=\frac{A\times n}{N_{a}\times v}=\frac{180.9\frac{gram}{mol}\times 2 \frac{atom}{cell}}{6.023\times10^23\frac{atom}{mol}\times(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}\times r})^3\frac{cm^3}{cell}}\\=16.6\frac{gram}{cm^3}\\r=(\frac{180.9\times2}{16.6\times6.023\times10^23\times(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}})^3})^\frac{1}{3}\times10^8$

uranmaximum [27]

Titanium is ductile and has high resistance for heat despite its strength.

Titanium (Ti), is a Group 4b chemical transition element, it has a silvery gray appearance. Its characteristics are as follows

known as the strongest metal with high rigidity
low-corrosion resistance
low density
heat resistance.

Because of these features, Titanium is widely used in building aircraft, missiles, and ships and also in the production of prosthetics.

Four properties of water are listed. It reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products. It is transparent and ta

Bezzdna [24]

Chemical property is the property of the substances that describes the ability of the substance to involve in chemical reactions. Physical property is that which does not change the chemical composition of the substances. The following properties of water that it is transparent and tasteless in its pure form and it freezes at a temperature of $0^{0}C$ are physical properties as they simply indicate the change in physical state without any change in chemical composition of water.

The other two properties that water reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products and water decomposes to form hydrogen and oxygen are chemical properties as the chemical composition of water changes in the given reaction.

Therefore the correct answer is b. 1 and 4
