Answer:
The process of dissolving can be endothermic (temperature goes down) or exothermic (temperature goes up).
When water dissolves a substance, the water molecules attract and “bond” to the particles (molecules or ions) of the substance causing the particles to separate from each other.
The “bond” that a water molecule makes is not a covalent or ionic bond. It is a strong attraction caused by water’s polarity.
It takes energy to break the bonds between the molecules or ions of the solute.
Energy is released when water molecules bond to the solute molecules or ions.
If it takes more energy to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes down (endothermic).
If it takes less energy to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes up (exothermic).
Explanation:
Answer:
polymerization
Explanation:
Student is explaining the process of formation of a polymer and the process is called polymerization.
Polymer is made up of joining repeating units. The repeating units are called monomers.
Properties of the polymer is determined by the structure of monomer molecule.
For example, consider a well-known polymer Teflon.is made by the polymerization of tetrafluoroethane.
Thus, the student is explaining polymerization.
A decrease in the amount of gas in a container will mean a decrease in pressure.
The population would decrease, the more predators there are the more food needed for the species .
Question:
The options are;
a. Temperature
b. Thermal Energy
c. Hotness
d. Fire Energy
Answer:
The correct option is;
b. Thermal energy
Explanation:
A burner on a stove produces thermal energy which is used to raise the temperature of the metal container (kettle, pot or pans) in which items are placed for heating.
Thermal energy is the internal energy of the system given off as heat which when transferred from one body to another causes the temperature of the receiving body to rise. Thermal energy in a burner is given off when the gaseous fuel reacts or burns in the presence of or with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor in an exothermic reaction.
4C + 5H₂ + 13/2O₂ (-125 kJ) → C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O (-2877 kJ).
