What happens to the particles of a substance when thermal energy is added to the substance?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Oduvanchick [21]4 years ago
4 0
The particles gain energy meaning they can for example turn it into kinetic energy which makes the particles vibrate- eg. when you heat ice (adding thermal energy) the water molecules in the ice vibrate causing them to break a part meaning the ice melts into liquid water

What is the relationship between wavelength and energy of light ?
topjm [15]

The greater the energy, the larger the frequency and the shorter (smaller) the wavelength. Given the relationship between wavelength and frequency — the higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength — it follows that short wavelengths are more energetic than long wavelengths.

The following reaction occurs in aqueous solution: NH4 + (aq) + NO2 - → N2 (g) + 2H2O (l) The data below is obtained at 25°C.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: The order with respect to NH_4^+ is 1.

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

NH_4^++NO_2^-\rightarrow N_2+2H_2O

Rate=k[NH_4^+]^x[NO_2^-]^y

k= rate constant

x = order with respect to NH_4^+

y = order with respect to ANO_2^-

n = x+y = Total order

From trial 1: 3.2\times 10^{-3}=k[0.0100]^x[0.200]^y    (1)

From trial 2: 6.4\times 10^{-3}=k[0.0200]^x[0.200]^y    (2)

Dividing 2 by 1 :\frac{6.4\times 10^{-3}}{3.2\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{k[0.0100]^x[0.2000]^y}{k[0.0200]^x[0.200]^y}

2=2^x,2^1=2^x therefore x=  1

Thus order with respect to NH_4^+ is 1.

Which of the following represents the chemical reaction of aluminum and ferric oxide to produce iron and aluminum oxide? A. alum
DerKrebs [107]
Option A is correct. Over all reaction is as follow,

                             Fe₂O₃ (s) + 2 Al (s) → 2 Fe (s) + Al₂O₃ <span>(s)
</span>Explanation:
                   Here we are having two metals, Iron and Aluminium. Aluminium is very reactive than Iron and it is above Iron in the reactivity series. 
                   This reaction has great importance in welding Iron on other metals, like welding Railway tracks. When Ferric Oxide is mixed with Aluminium metal and a spark is given, a vigorous exothermic reaction starts. The temperature reaches approximately 2000°C and Iron with melting point 1535 °C melts and is used for welding purpose. Such type of reaction is called as Thermite Reaction.

What are the isotopes? how all of the isotopes of an atom are similar and how are they different?
madam [21]
Isotopes are the same element with a different mass number. They are similar because once again the protons are equal to the atomic number which keeps the identity of the atom the same. But they are different because the masses of each is different.
