Alkaline battery are a type of primary battery dependent upon the reaction between zinc metal and manganese dioxide.
The alkaline battery gets its name because it has an alkaline electrolyte of potassium hydroxide, instead of the acidic ammonium chloride or zinc chloride electrolyte of the zinc-carbon batteries.

What is the role of meteorites in the formation of life?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Meteorites are consensually considered to be involved in the origin of life on this Planet for several functions and at different levels: (i) as providers of impact energy during their passage through the atmosphere; (ii) as agents of geodynamics, intended both as starters of the Earth’s tectonics and as activators of local hydrothermal systems upon their fall; (iii) as sources of organic materials, at varying levels of limited complexity; and (iv) as catalysts.

Acetylene, c2h2, has a standard enthalpy of formation, δh° = 226.7 kj/mol, and a standard entropy change for its formation from
VLD [36.1K]
ΔG⁰ = ΔH⁰ - T ΔS⁰

ΔG⁰ : Standard free energy of formation of acetylene

ΔH⁰ : Standard enthalpy of formation (226.7 kJ/mol)

ΔS⁰ : Standard entropy change (58.8 J / K. mol)

T : Temperature 25°C = 298 K (room temperature)

ΔG⁰ = 226.7 - (298 x 58.8 x 10⁻³) = 209.2 kJ /mol

The electron affinity of an element is positive if energy is absorbed during the process of accepting an electron and negative i
julsineya [31]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the energy released when an extra electron is added to a neutral gaseous atom. A negative value of electron affinity indicates that energy is given out and vice versa.

Metals have positive electron affinity since electrons rarely accept electrons, so;

Na(g)+ 1e^- → Na^-(g)      positive

Mg(g)+1e^- → Mg^-(g)      positive

For the last case; Br(g)+ 1e^- → Br^-(g), the electron affinity for the non-metals is negative. hence the answer
