Thermal energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the particles in an object.

Assume that you have 250 gL of water and 1 kg of water at the same temperature.

Then, each water molecule has the same kinetic energy.

The larger sample contains four times as many molecules, so it contains four times as much thermal energy.

Thus, thermal energy is directly proportional to mass.

In symbols, KE ∝ m or KE = km.

The graph of a direct proportion is a straight line passing trough the origin.

It should look something like the graph below.

Answer:

$2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\$

Explanation:

$2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\$

The incomplete combustion of alkanes, and other fuels actually, happens when there is a limited supply of oxygen. Instead of the fuel burning completely to produce carbon dioxide, it produces carbon monoxide instead.

This gas is harmful to jumans because it combines with haemoglobin in lood and takes up space that belongs to oxygen which can lead to suffocation or even death

Why do noble gases not have electronegativity values

Mrrafil [7]

Noble gases already have eight electrons in their outer shells and they don't want to attract anymore. Since electronegativity measures the amount of attraction between an atom and an electron, noble gases do not have electronegativity.
