Answer:

Compound

Explanation:

A compound is a substance that cannot be broken down by an ordinary physical process but can be split into its component elements by chemical processes such as decomposition, dissociation, displacement.

A compound is made up of two or more different atoms. A particular compound is unique/uniform in its composition and doesn't share its particular composition with another compound. For example, carbon monoxide (CO) is made up of one atom of carbon and one atom of oxygen while carbon dioxide (CO₂) is made up of one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.

In an ideal situation where no heat energy is produced, what is the relationship between the chemical energy provided by the bat
kow [346]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Hence, chemical energy in a battery can be converted to electrical energy.

Usually, the conversion of energy from one form to another is not 100% efficient according to the second law of thermodynamics. Some energy is wasted in the process, sometimes as heat.

Hence, in an ideal situation where no heat energy is produced; all the chemical energy is converted to electrical energy (100% energy conversion). There will be no energy loss if no heat is produced.

It has been suggested that hydrogen gas obtained by the decomposition of water might be a substitute for natural gas (principall
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Hydrogen: -141 kJ/g

Methane: -55kJ/g

The energy released per gram of hydrogen in its combustion is higher than the energy released per gram of methane in its combustion.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of the energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion and the heat absorbed by the bomb calorimeter is zero.

Qc + Qb = 0

Qc = -Qb  [1]

We can calculate the heat absorbed by the bomb calorimeter using the following expression.

Q = C . ΔT

where,

C is the heat capacity

ΔT is the change in the temperature

<h3>Hydrogen</h3>

Qc = -Qb = -C . ΔT = -(11.3 kJ/°C) . (14.3°C) = -162 kJ

The heat released per gram of hydrogen is:

\frac{-162kJ}{1.15g} =-141 kJ/g

<h3>Methane</h3>

Qc = -Qb = -C . ΔT = -(11.3 kJ/°C) . (7.3°C) = -82 kJ

The heat released per gram of methane is:

\frac{-82kJ}{1.50g} =-55kJ/g

Consider the following intermediate reactions.
Alja [10]

2.1648 kg of CH4 will generate 119341 KJ of energy.

Explanation:

Write down the values given in the question

CH4(g) +2 O2 → CO2(g) +2 H20 (g)

ΔH1 = - 802 kJ

2 H2O(g)→2 H2O(I)

ΔH2= -88 kJ

The overall chemical reaction is

CH4 (g)+2 O2(g)→CO2(g)+2 H2O (I) ΔH2= -890 kJ

CH4 +2 O2 → CO2 +2 H20

(1mol)+(2mol)→(1mol+2mol)

Methane (CH4) = 16 gm/mol

oxygen (O2) =32 gm/mol

Here 1 mol CH4 ang 2mol of O2 gives 1mol of CO2 and 2 mol of 2 H2O

which generate 882 KJ /mol

Therefore to produce 119341 KJ of energy

119341/882 = 135.3 mol

to produce 119341 KJ of energy, 135.3 mol of CH4 and 270.6 mol of O2 will require

=135.3 *16

=2164.8 gm

=2.1648 kg of CH4

2.1648 kg of CH4 will generate 119341 KJ of energy

Compare the strength of the intermolecular forces in solids liquids and gases
telo118 [61]

Intermolecular forces in solids are strongest than in liquids and gases. Gases have the least strong intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces are weak and are significant over short distances between molecules (determined by Coulomb’s law). The farther away from the molecules the weaker the intermolecular forces. Since molecules in solids are the closest, the intermolecular force between them as the strongest. Conversely, since gas molecules are farthest apart, the intermolecular forces between them are the weakest.
