Answer:

Period

Explanation:

Periodic trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction.

The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.The electron affinity also increases along period because of greater positive charge.

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

$Cv_{calorimeter}=18.4kcal/K$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the combustion of the hamburger released 335.4 kcal of energy and that energy is received by the calorimeter, we can write:

$Q_{hamburguer}=-Q_{calorimeter}$

And the heat of the calorimeter is written in terms of the temperature change and the calorimeter constant:

$Q_{hamburguer}=-Cv_{calorimeter}\Delta T$

Thus, given the released heat by the hamburger due to its combustion and the temperature change, Cv for the calorimeter turns out:

$Cv_{calorimeter}=\frac{-Q_{hamburguer}}{\Delta T} =\frac{-(-335.4kcal)}{18.2K}\\\\Cv_{calorimeter}=18.4kcal/K$

Best regards!

Methane (CH4), is said to be the cleanest burning fossil fuel. When burned, it releases carbon dioxide gas and forms water. Usin

LiRa [457]

From the stoichiometry of the balanced reaction equation, the correct statement are;

For every 1 molecule of methane CH4 that reacts, 2 molecules of H2O are produced.
For every 20 grams of methane (CH4) that reacts, 40 grams of H2O are produced.
For every 200 moles of methane (CH4) that reacts, 400 moles of H2O are produced.

<h3>What is combustion?</h3>

The term combustion refers to the burning of fossil fuels for the purpose of energy production. The equation for reaction is CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O.

Using this equation as shown, the true statements are;

For every 1 molecule of methane CH4 that reacts, 2 molecules of H2O are produced.

For every 20 grams of methane (CH4) that reacts, 40 grams of H2O are produced.

For every 200 moles of methane (CH4) that reacts, 400 moles of H2O are produced.
