<u>Answer:</u>

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink show up when carbonic acid (H2CO3) decomposes to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). In a closed system, this equilibrium exists as:

                                         H2CO3 ⇌ CO2+ H2O


B is the correct answer.

Carbonated drinks are sealed under high pressure so when a container is left open, pressure decreases which favors the formation of carbonic acid (H2CO3). It is weak acid which decomposes releasing CO2 in the form of bubbles.

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>

An object is moving with constant non-zero velocity. Which of thw following statements about it must be true
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The net force on the object is zero.

Explanation:

An object is moving with constant non-zero velocity. If velocity is constant, it means that the change in velocity is equal to 0. As a result, acceleration of the object is equal to 0. Net force is the product of mass and acceleration. Hence, the correct option is (d) "The net force on the object is zero".
