Answer:

Coal is a traditionally used source of energy, there are main four types of ranks for coal. Here the rank of a coal means to a natural process called Coalification, which takes place during a plant is buried and changes to a harder, and denser material and become even more rich in carbon contents.

Anthracite is know to have the highest ranked coal, it contains highest percent of fixed carbon and lowest percent of volatile material.

Answer: exothermic

EXPLANATION: any process in which heat energy is released is called an exothermic process. For example burning of wood produces heat, so combustion of wood is an exothermic process.

When chemicals were not mixed they were at room temperature and when we mix them exothermic reaction took place and heat was released which raised the temperature of mixture.

The heat of fusion for a substance is 122 joules per gram. How many joules of heat are need to melt 7.50 grams of this substance
daser333 [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

915 Joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The heat of fusion is the heat that is required to convert a given mass of a substance from solid state to liquid state without change in temperature.
  • In this case, we are given specific heat of a substance as 122 joules per gram
  • It means that amount of heat equivalent to 122 joules is required to change 1 gram of the substance from solid state to liquid state.
  • Therefore, we can determine the amount of heat needed to change 7.5 grams of the substance from solid to liquid state.

1 g = 122 Joules

7.5 g = ?

       = 122 × 7.5

      = 915 Joules

Thus, 7.5 g of the substance at its melting point will require 915 Joules of heat to melt.

Answer:

Forces acting on an object may be balanced or unbalanced. When the forces  acting on an object have <u>equal</u> strength and act in opposite directions, they  are <u>balanced</u>. These forces cancel out one another, and the <u>motion</u> of the  object does not <u>change</u>.  When the forces acting on an object are <u>unbalanced</u>, they do not cancel out  one another. An unbalanced force acting on an object results in the object’s  motion <u>changing</u>. The object may change its <u>speed</u> (speed up or slow down), or it may change its <u>direction</u>.  <u>Friction</u> is a force that resists the motion or the tendency toward motion  between two objects in contact with each other.  <u>Gravity</u> is a force that pulls objects toward one another. For example, Earth  pulls all objects toward it.
