Answer:The sun
Explanation:
Coal and crude oil are made from the remains of plants and animals that died long ago. The primary energy source in an ecosystem is the sun. Plants take in energy from the sun to produce high energy molecules which are transferred along the food chain to animals. When these plants and animals die, the high energy molecules are now stored in fossil fuels. Recall that the molecules were formed using energy from the sun, therefore, the sun is the energy source from which the high energy molecules contained in fossil fuels are obtained.
The process of an atom releasing energy when it moves to a lower energy state is called emission.
Answer:
A. The conditions are:
I. Reactant particles must collide with the right orientation.
II. There must be effective collisions.
III. The reactant particles must possess enough energy to break old bonds so that new bonds can be formed.
B. The activated complex occurs where the maximum energy of the reaction is attained along the reaction pathway, that is, at the peak of the activation energy.
Answer:
Molecular formula = C20H30
Explanation:
NB 440mg = 0.44g, 135mg= 0.135g
From the question, moles of CO2= 0.44/44= 0.01mol
Since 1 mol of CO2 contains 1mol of C, it implies mol of C = 0.01
Also from the question, moles of H2O = 0.135/18= 0.0075mole
Since 1 mol of H2O contains 2mol of H, it implies mol of H = 0.0075×2= 0.015 mol of H
To get the empirical formula, divide by smallest number of mole
Mol of C = 0.01/0.01=1
Mol of H = 0.015/0.01= 1.5
Multiply both by 2 to obtain a whole number
Mol of C =1×2 = 2
Mol of H= 1.5×2 = 3
Empirical formula= C2H3
[C2H3] not = 270
[ (2×12) + 3]n = 270
27n = 270
n=10
Molecular formula= [C2H3]10= C20H30
