Answer:

Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. The transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects is called heat

4.993 ×10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

The nuclear binding energy is the energy equivalent to the mass defect.

The mass defect is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of its nucleons.

Calculate the mass defect

16 p = 16 × 1.007 28 u = 16.116 48 u

16 n = 16 × 1.008 67 u = 16.138 72 u

Total mass of nucleons = 32.255 20 u

- Mass of S-32 = 31.972 070 u

Mass defect = 0.283 13 u

Convert the unified atomic mass units to kilograms.

Mass defect

$= \text{0.283 13 u} \times \frac{ \text{1.66 06} \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}}{\text{1 u}}$

$= 4.700 \times 10^{-28} \text{ kg}$

Use Einstein’s equation to convert the mass defect into energy

$E = mc^{2}$

$E = 4.7000 \times 10^{-28} \text{ kg} \times (2.998 \times 10^{8} \text{ m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1})^{2} = 4.224 \times 10^{-11} \text{ J}$

The reaction described by H2(g)+I2(g)⟶2HI(g) has an experimentally determined rate law of rate=k[H2][I2] Some proposed mechanism

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Mechanism A and B are consistent with observed rate law

Mechanism A is consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan

Explanation:

In a mechanism of a reaction, the rate is determinated by the slow step of the mechanism.

In the proposed mechanisms:

Mechanism A

(1) H2(g)+I2(g)→2HI(g)(one-step reaction)

Mechanism B

(1) I2(g)⇄2I(g)(fast, equilibrium)

(2) H2(g)+2I(g)→2HI(g) (slow)

Mechanism C

(1) I2(g) ⇄ 2I(g)(fast, equilibrium)

(2) I(g)+H2(g) ⇄ HI(g)+H(g) (slow)

(3) H(g)+I(g)→HI(g) (fast)

The rate laws are:

A: rate = k₁ [H2] [I2]

B: rate = k₂ [H2] [I]²

As:

K-1 [I]² = K1 [I2]:

rate = k' [H2] [I2]

Where K' = K1 * K2

C: rate = k₁ [H2] [I]

As:

K-1 [I]² = K1 [I2]:

rate = k' [H2] [I2]^1/2

Thus, just mechanism A and B are consistent with observed rate law

In the equilibrium of B, you can see the I-I bond is broken in a fast equilibrium (That means the rupture of the bond is not a determinating step in the reaction), but in mechanism A, the fast rupture of I-I bond could increase in a big way the rate of the reaction. Thus, just mechanism A is consistent with the observation of J. H. Sullivan

Name a device or other object whose major purpose is to convert

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Storage battery oe cell

Explanation:

The storage battery or cell is a device that coverts chemical energy into light energy when required.

During charging of battery, there is some chemical changes in the battery and absorb energy. The absorbed energy is converted into electrical energy when connected to an external load.

Hence, the correct answer is "Storage battery or cell".
