Answer:

Catalyst

Explanation:

A general term for a chemical which accelerates a reaction without becoming chemically involved is called a catalyst.

Catalysts are used in industrial processes to speed up the rate of a chemical reaction. For instance, in the Contact process used in the production of sulphuric (vi) acid, vanadium(V) oxide (V2O5) is used as a catalyst to speed up the production of the acid. Vanadium(V) oxide (V2O5) is preferred to Platinum which was initially used as the catalyst since it does not react with any of the products of the process

Question 2<br> Describe the energy in coal and the way in which it’s converted to electrical energy.
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Its rich carbon content gives coal most of its energy content. When coal is burned in the presence of air or oxygen, heat energy is released. This energy can then be converted to other forms of useful energy. Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity.

Hope this helps! :)

How do my experiences affect the decisions/choices I make and my role as a citizen of the global community?
Lana71 [14]
Your experiences affect the decisions you make and your role because if your experiences weren’t as challenging as they are for others then your decisions will most likely point towards the easier choices. If you had challenging experiences then you will most likely make decisions that are more complex. You would know how hard a challenge is from experience so that would help you if your choices weren’t as easy as you thought they would be or as they are for others. This would affect your role in your community because if you had the chance to help out, you would probably pick the easiest task or the hardest task depending on your experiences.
