Remember: energy is conserved in a chemical reaction (visualize the reaction and question whether heat lies on reactant side (left) or product side (right))
-exothermic- heat is released (heat is on the product side)
>forming an ionic lattice (SALT)- mixture of Na and Cl results in a more stable ionic lattice, causing this reaction to be exothermic
>burning wood
-endothermic- heat is absorbed (heat is on the reactant side)
> cooking an egg
The correct answer is C because a Controlled Experiment tests only one factor at a time and consists of a control group and one or more experimental groups.
Answer:
Isotopes are forms of a chemical element that have the same atomic number but differ in mass. 16O → 8 protons + 8 neutrons; a “light” oxygen); The relative amounts are expressed as either 18O/16O or δ 18O Oxygen - 18 (aka 18O → 8 protons + 10 neutrons; a “heavy” oxygen).
Answer:
Explanation:
Seismographs can detect quakes that are too small for humans to feel. During an earthquake, ground-shaking seismic waves radiate outward from the quake source, called the epicenter. Different types of seismic waves travel at different speeds and through different parts of the Earth during a quake.
