What power source uses the earths internal heat

Chemistry
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Geothermal power comes from Earth's internal heat

Explanation:

The description applied to power sources tends to match the names applied to the source of energy. Sometimes Latin, or other word derivations are used.

For example, "hydro-" refers to water, so it is no surprise that hydroelectric power comes from the movement of water. Of course, "nuclear" refers to the nuclei of the atoms that are split to release energy in a nuclear power plant. Similarly, "geo-" refers to Earth, and "thermal" refers to heat, so "geothermal" energy is the name given to energy derived from Earth's heat.

What is the atomic number of pt-175 after it undergoes alpha decay
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

76

Explanation:

Alpha decay is one of the most basic forms of radioactive decay. It has an atomic mass of 4 and a proton number of two.

Undergoing an alpha decay will decrease the atomic mass by four and the atomic number by two.

In this particular question, we are particular about the atomic number. The atom has an atomic number of 78. So taking 2 off this gives 76

Classify the following substituents according to whether they are electron donors or electron acceptors relative to hydrogen by
igor_vitrenko [27]

Species that have a lone pair of electrons often donate electrons by resonance while substituents that are electron deficient take away electrons by resonance.

<h3>What is resonance?</h3>

The term resonace has to do with the movement of electron pairs in a molecule. Inductive effects has to do with the drawing of electron density towards an atom or bond.

The two effects depends on the nature of a substituent. For instance, species that have a lone pair of electrons often donate electrons by resonance while substituents that are electron deficient take away electrons by resonance.

The question is incomplete hence the exact nature of the substituents can not be determined.
