Which of the following would not be considered renewable forms of energy?

Chemistry
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer : The correct answer is A. Nuclear reactors using Pu-239

B. burning coal

The sources which are not renewable are known as "non- renewable sources of energy .

Non - renewable sources are those which get expired after rapid use and can never be reproduced . These sources replenishes in very long time . Examples : Coal , petrol or fuels etc .

1) Nuclear reactors using Pu-239 : Nuclear reactors uses radioactive elements like uranium , plutonium etc , which are present in limit . after frequent use of these elements , they will vanish off , Hence we can say nuclear reactors are Non renewable source of energy .

2) Burning coal : Coal is used as one of the major source of fuel . On rapid utilization of coal they will finished from earth . It takes thousand of year for formation of coal . Hence , it is a Non -renewable source .

3) Photo-voltaic cell: These are cells which used solar energy . Solar energy is obtained from sun . Hence solar energy is renewable source of energy so is the photo voltaic cell .

4) Geothermal energy : Geothermal energy is source of energy that is extracted from earth's thermal energy . Since thermal energy of earth is present in very large amount and can be reproduced , hence it renewable source of energy .

5)Wind energy : Wind energy is source of energy that is obtained from wind. And wind is renewable source so the wine energy too .

Consequently , we can say only two of them " Nuclear reactors and burning of coal " are Non renewable force of energy .

If I have 6 moles of a gas at a pressure of 3.4 atm and a volume of 10 liters, what
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The temperature is 69.05 K.  

Explanation:

We have,

Number of moles are 6

Pressure is 3.4 atm and a volume of 10 liters.

It is required to find the temperature. It can be calculated using gas law equation. It says that,

PV=nRT

P is pressure

V is volume

n is number of moles

R is gas constant, R=0.082057\ L-atm/mol-K

T is temperature                

Plugging all the values we get :

T=\dfrac{PV}{nR}\\\\T=\dfrac{3.4\times 10}{6\times 0.082057}\\\\T=69.05\ K

So, the temperature is 69.05 K.

How do i solve number 36?
tresset_1 [31]
To cut this short and for your understanding, ionic bond is formed between metals (mostly right column in periodic table). Covalent bond is formed between non-metals (mostly left column in periodic table). So polar covalent is also a covalent bond but it is polar, which means the shape of molecules are not symmetrical hence maybe an atom in a molecule has most of the electron attracted to it causing itself to be partial negative (since electron are negatively charged) and the other atom has its electron being attracted by others became partial positive. Polar covalent can also be when H atom is binding either to F, O or N (also known as hydrogen bond).

What gas is used in respiration​
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Los pulmones y el aparato respiratorio nos permiten respirar. Permiten la entrada de oxígeno en nuestros cuerpos (inspiración o inhalación) y expulsan el dióxido de carbono (expiración o exhalación). Este intercambio de oxígeno y dióxido de carbono recibe el nombre de "respiración"

La función del aparato respiratorio es mover dos gases: <em>el oxígeno y el dióxido de carbono</em>

For a different reaction, the plot of the reciprocal of concentration versus time in seconds was linear with a slope of 0.056 M-
Bond [772]

Answer:

C_t=0.165M

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Slope K=0.056 M-1 s -1

initial Concentration C_1=2.2M

Time t=100

Generally the equation for Raw law is mathematically given by

\frac{1}{C}_t=kt+\frac{1}{C}_0

\frac{1}{C}_t=0.056*100+\frac{1}{2.2}_0

C_t=0.165M
