We know that the law of conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed. It only changes form. Conside

r this energy transformation diagram. Assume that the energy input in this case is chemical potential energy and the useful energy output is kinetic energy, specifically a small fan to keep you cool. The diagram also shows how to calculate the efficiency of the fan. If the law of conservation of energy holds true, explain why the efficiency of the fan is not 100%.
A) No machine is ever 100% efficient; some energy is not transformed.
B) Some of the chemical potential energy is destroyed during the energy transformation.
C) Some of the chemical potential energy is transformed into heat energy as well as kinetic energy.
D) Conservation of energy also implies that some of the chemical potential energy is conserved or not used to run the fan.

I'm not sure but I think the answer is C or D.

I think A is not possible because where did the energy go if it's not transformed?

B is definitely not because energy cannot be destroyed.

The compound cisplatin, pt(nh3)2cl2 , has been studied extensively as an antitumor agent.
Nataliya [291]

a. Elemental percent composition is the mass percent of each element in the compound.

The formula for mass elemental percent composition = \frac{mass of element}{mass of compound}   (1)

The molecular formula of cisplatin is Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2.

The atomic weight of the elements in cisplatin is:

Platinum, Pt = 195.084 u

Nitrogen, N = 14.0067 u

Hydrogen, H = 1 u

Chlorine, Cl = 35.453 u

The molar mass of Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2 = 195.084+ (2\times 14.0067)+(6\times 1)+(2\times 35.453) = 300.00 g/mol

The mass of each element calculated using formula (1):

- Platinum, Pt %

\frac{195.084}{300.00} \times 100 = 65.23%.

- Nitrogen, N%

\frac{2\times 14.0067}{300.00} \times 100 = 9.34%

- Hydrogen, H%

\frac{6\times 1}{300.00} \times 100 = 2.0%

- Chlorine, Cl%

\frac{2\times 35.453}{300.00} \times 100 = 23.63%

b. The given reaction of cisplatin is:

K_2PtCl_4(aq)+2NH_3(aq)\rightarrow Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2(s)+2KCl(aq)

According to the balanced reaction, 1 mole of K_2PtCl_4 gives 1 mole of Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2.

Now, calculating the number of moles of K_2PtCl_4 in 100.0 g.

Number of moles = \frac{given mass}{Molar mass}

Molar mass of K_2PtCl_4 = 2\times 39.0983+195.084+4\times 35.453 = 415.093 g/mol

Number of moles of K_2PtCl_4 = \frac{100 g}{415.093 g/mol} = 0.241 mole.

Since, 1 mole of K_2PtCl_4 gives 1 mole of Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2. Therefore, mass of cisplatin is:

0.241 mole\times 300 g/mol = 72.3 g

For mass of KCl:

Molar mass of KCl = 39.0983 + 35.453 = 74.55 g/mol

Since, 1 mole of K_2PtCl_4 gives 2 mole of KCl. Therefore, mass of KCl is:

0.241 mole\times 74.55 g/mol\times 2 = 35.93 g

The list of options to answer this question is:

A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

B.electrical energy is transformed into potential energy.

C.potential energy is transformed into kinectic energy.

D.mechanical energy is transformed into chemical energy.

The answer is the option A. A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

As you know energy cannot be lost but transformed.

When friction force acts over the tyres it increases the speed of the particles in the tyres which is thermal energy, this thermal energy increase comes from kinetic energy loss.

What is the Lewis structure for Iodide?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

In the Lewis structure for IF5 you'll need to put a total of 12 valence electrons on the Iodine atom in order to draw the Lewis structure. Remember that Iodine (I) can hold more than eight valence electrons. For the IF5 Lewis structure, calculate the total number of valence electrons for the IF5 molecule

Describe the difference between the terms “element”, “compound”, “molecule”, and “salt”.
myrzilka [38]
You can define an element as a substance with only one type of atom in (e.g. only sulphur atoms). If a substance has more than one type of atom in, then it is either a compound or a mixture, depending on whether the elements have bonded. Examples of elements are:

Oxygen
Sulphur
Carbon
Hydrogen
Protactinium


Compound-
A substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bounds.
Molecule- a pure substance that cannot be broken down
Salt- A Ionic Compound Formed From The Reaction Of An Acid And Base .
