Answer:

Chemical energy to heat energy

Explanation:

The type of energy conversion when fuel is burnt to move a car is from chemical energy to heat energy.

One of the fundamental laws in chemistry postulates that "energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another".

This law suggests that energy can be transformed from one form to another.

  • In an automobile, the fuel is chemical compound with chains of hydrocarbons.
  • When these bonds are broken during combustion in the engine, the chemical energy, a form of potential energy, is converted to heat energy, a form of kinetic energy.
  • The heat energy is used to drive pistons and cause the mechanics of a car to begin to move.

Given the reaction: cu(s) + 4hno3(aq) → cu(no3)2(aq) + 2no3(g) + 2h2o(l )as the reaction occurs, what happens to copper?
katrin [286]
From the reaction between Cu and HNO₃, the formed gas is NO₂ instead of NO₃. Hence the correct balanced equation would be,
Cu(s) + 4HNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O<span>(l)

Here, Cu goes to </span>Cu(NO₃)₂ by changing its oxidation number from 0 to +2 while NO₃⁻ goes to NO₂ by reducing its oxidation state from +5 to +4 . Hence Cu is oxidized by HNO₃ in the reaction.

What geologic processes are happening in the Lassen Volcanic National Park? Is it still being built up or taken away?
JulsSmile [24]

In May 1915, Lassen Peak, California, the southernmost active volcano in the Cascade Range, erupted explosively. Avalanches, mudflows, and flows of hot ash and gas devastated nearby areas, and volcanic ash fell as far away as 200 miles to the east. The Lassen area remains volcanically active, and the volcano hazards demonstrated in 1915 still can threaten not only nearby areas but also more distant communities. Recent work by scientists with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the National Park Service is shedding new light on these hazards.
