Radda [10]3 years ago

Explanation:

An oxidizing agent is a reactant that removes electrons from other reactants during a redox reaction. The oxidizing agent typically takes these electrons for itself, thus gaining electrons and being reduced. An oxidizing agent is thus an electron acceptor.

Examples of Oxidizing Agents include the following; Hydrogen peroxide, ozone, oxygen.

A half-equation shows you what happens at one of the electrodes during electrolysis . Electrons are shown as e -. A half-equation is balanced by adding, or taking away, a number of electrons equal to the total number of charges on the ions in the equation.

The balanced half reaction equation for H2O2 as an oxidizing agent is given as;

H2O2 + 2e^- + 2H^+ ==> 2H2O

The red arrow is pointed at different locations of an atom of Helium. Where is it pointing to the GREATEST concentration of atom
Mama L [17]

Answer:

A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example  in case of Helium:

The 1st one diagram shows that arrow is pointing with in nucleus. The helium nucleus contain two protons and two neutrons. Thus maximum mass is present with in nucleus. while two electrons are revolve around the nucleus and mass of electron is negligible.

If a pork roast must absorb
Black_prince [1.1K]
Let us  assume propane was the fuel
C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) ---> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) = 2217kJ
1 mole ofpropane produces 3 moles of CO2 
heat absorbed by pork = 0.11 x 2217
                                     = 243.87 kJ/mol
number of moles of propane = 1700kJ / 243.87 kJ/mol
                                              = 6.971 moles
1 mole of C3H8 = 3 moles ofCO2
6.971 moles of C3H8 = ?
3 x 6.971 = 20.913 moles of CO2
Convert to grams
mass = MW x mole
          = 44 x 20.913
          = 920.172g of CO2 emitted

How is electromagnetic energy transformed into heat energy
olga2289 [7]
Radiant Energy is electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves. Radiant energy includes visible light, x-rays, gamma rays and radio waves. Light is one type of radiant energy. Sunshine is radiant energy, which provides the fuel and warmth that make life on Earth possible. 

<span>Heat travels from the sun by a process called radiation. Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves. When infrared rays strike a material, the molecules in that material move faster. In addition to the sun, light bulbs, irons, and toasters radiate heat. When we feel heat around these items, however, we are feeling convection heat (warmed air molecules) rather than radiated heat since the heat waves strike and energize surrounding air molecules. </span>

<span>A light bulb changes the chemical energy of the bulb into electromagnetic radiation, or light. Which in return gets transformed into heat (have you ever touched a light bulb? ouch!). </span>

When you heat up coffee in a microwave, you are transforming electromagnetic energy into heat.http://www.svsu.edu/mathsci-center/uploa... 

<span>People have started to utilize electromagnetic energy in the form of solar power, using solar panels to gather the radiant energy that comes from the sun and use it for electricity. For example, a pool that has solar heating panels. </span>
