1. AA, AAA, C and D cells all deliver the same voltage( 1.5V) when the batteries are fully charged. However,as the size of the b

attery increases, the amount of current that can be deliveredby the battery also increases. What is the difference inside these bateries that accounts for the increase in current with size? Expalin.
2. The overall reaction for alkaline battery is given by
Zn(s)+ MnO2(s)+H2O(l)--> ZnO(s) + Mn(OH)2(s)

Answer:

A. The increase in size of the battery results in a smaller internal resistance and hence, a larger current delivery.

B. Zinc serves as the anode

Explanation:

A. The current that a battery can deliver is affected by the internal resistance of the battery.

The internal resistance resistance, r, is the resistance to flow of current within the battery. The smaller the internal resistance for a given emf, the more current and the more power the source can supply.

The relationship between current, I, emf, E, the external load ,R, and internal resistance is given by the equation:

I = E / (R + r)

The bigger the size of a battery, the smaller its internal resistance and thus, the larger the current the battery can deliver.

B. In a battery, the cathode is reduced by accepting electrons from the anode, while the anode is oxidized to zinc ion by giving up its electrons to the cathode.

From the equation of the reaction, metallic zinc is oxidized by giving up two electron to the cathode.

Zn(s) ----> Zn2+ + 2e-

Therefore, metallic zinc serves as the anode.

Help please!
umka2103 [35]

Answer: In factories they burn coal under a giant container(a really big gumbo pot pretty much). when the fire is hot enough it starts to boil. When it boils it creates steam and the steam blows on a fan that makes electricity.

Noble Gases (18): (Name all noble gases)
Paul [167]

Answer :

  • The Noble gasses are Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn).
  • When air is cold, Oxygen liquefies first at -182^oC. N_2 liquefies at -195^oC. About 1% of the air is still gas composed of the noble gas Argon, Ar.
  • One noble gas was discovered on the sun. It’s spectrum was identify first. This is Helium, He.
  • One of noble gas is radioactive and seeps up your basement floors and walls. It is Radon, Rn.
  • This noble gas is used in electronic flashes and other bright lights. It is Xenon, Xe.
  • This noble gas is best known for its orange color in gas discharge tubes. It is used for signs that bear its name. It is Neon, Ne.

Carbon dioxide is a colorless odorless gas why is it considered a pollutant?
WARRIOR [948]

Carbon dioxide is a gas having chemical formula CO_{2}, a gas which exhaled by humans and inhaled by plants. It is also emitted from the sources such as cement production and combustion of fossil fuels. It is also known as greenhouse gas associated with acidification of ocean.

Carbon dioxide with other gases acts like a blanket of Earth which absorbs infrared radiations emitted from the sun and thus, preventing the escaping of these rays into the outer space which results in the gradual heating of Earth's surface and atmosphere i.e. increase in temperature of Earth. This process is known as Global Warming.

Hence, carbon dioxide is responsible for the increase in warming of the atmosphere i.e. option (D).
