Chemistry
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Electrons on atoms have different amounts of energy proportional to the distance of their orbital from the nucleus. So in the flame, electrons get excited and pushed to higher energy levels by the heat energy. When they fall back down, they give off photons of light of different colors, based upon how far they fall.

Give the major force between ethanol and rubbing alcohol.
insens350 [35]
The major force between ethanol and rubbing alcohol is hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bond are intermolecular force that are weaker than covalent bond but holds atoms together in a molecules. For an hydrogen bond to be formed, a molecule must contain an hydrogen atom that will be bonded to one of the most electronegative element.

A pan containing 40 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 91.0C. If the amount of heat repressed is 1,300 jou
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

83°C

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

M = 40g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 91°C

T2 =?

Q = 1300J

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/CM

ΔT = 1300/(4.2x40)

ΔT = 8°C

But ΔT = T1 — T2 (since the reaction involves cooling)

ΔT = T1 — T2

8 = 91 — T2

Collect like terms

8 — 91 = —T2

— 83 = —T2

Multiply through by —1

T2 = 83°C

The final temperature is 83°C
