Answer:
Geothermal energy has a faster rate because a vast amount of heat energy is always present inside Earth's core.
Geothermal energy has a slower rate because the water present below Earth's surface cools down periodically
Explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Calcium Carbide (CaC₂) is an unusual substance that contains a carbon anion (C₂²⁻). The reaction with water involves several steps that occur in rapid succession. CaC2 is a salt (notice that its name is similar to sodium chloride). When a salt dissolves in water, ions leave the crystal lattice and enter the aqueous (aq) solution. Write the relevant balanced chemical equation for the dissolution of CaC₂, in water.
Answer:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
Explanation:
When a salt dissolves in water, it dissociates in its ions. In the Calcium Carbide, the cation is Ca⁺² and the anion is C₂²⁻, so the reaction is:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
The base Ca(OH)₂ is soluble, so it will dissociate at Ca⁺ and OH⁻, but the C₂H₂ is stable and doesn't dissociate in the solution.
Answer:
Q = 1455.12 Joules.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 300 grams
Initial temperature = 22.3
Final temperature = 59.9°C
Specific heat capacity = 0.129 J/gºC.
To find the quantity of energy;
Where,
Q represents the heat capacity.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
dt represents the change in temperature.
dt = T2 - T1
dt = 59.9 - 22.3
dt = 37.6°C
Substituting the values into the equation, we have;
Q = 1455.12 Joules.
Answer: Since this is merely a Physical Change, it is improper to write it as a chemical equation.
