Heat_1: Get the ice to 0 degrees

Convert 7 kg to grams

7 kg [1000 grams / 1 kg] = 7000 grams

Heat needed to get the the ice from - 9 to 0

deltat = 0 - -9 = 9 degrees

m = 7000 grams

c = 2.1 joules/gram

Heat_1 = m*c*deltat

Heat_1 = 7000 * 2.1 * 9

Heat_1 = 132,300 joules

Heat_2: Melt the ice.

There is no temperature change. The formula is 333 j/gram

Formula: H = mass * constant

H = 7000 g * 333 J / gram

H = 2331000 joules

Heat_3: Total amount of Joules needed.

2331000 + 132300 = 2 463 300 joules

Convert to Megajoules

2 463 300 joules * 1 megajoule / 1000000 = 2.63 megajoules.

How does an increase in concentration affect a chemical reaction? (3 points)

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Increasing the concentrations of reactants in a chemical reaction would affect a reaction positively by increasing the number of collisions within a particular period which in turn increases the rate of reaction.

2. The molecules gains energy,which enable them to move faster and collide with the right energy for a reaction to take place.

3. The average kinetic motion of molecules in a solution can be measured by measuring the temperature. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules in a solution.

Answer:

The freshwater sources that are generally in continuous motion and follow a defined path are called streams and rivers.

If I were to improve the lab then I will make the following changes:

The experiment aimed to observe and model the effects of rivers on erosion. So, I can make a virtual model of the river and can compare the velocity, gradients and volume of rivers.
